I agree with you completely! I'm so used to living alone, it's hard to adjust when there's someone always there. Even if they don't work your nerves, sometimes just the presence of somone else can irk you. If you can live together in a home you bought together, what's the difference? Get married already!Southern_Ladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16139319643382695026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24148899.post-53956960141938512282007-07-09T10:48:00.000-04:002007-07-09T10:48:00.000-04:00i get tired of people too. i mean really quickly. ...i get tired of people too. i mean really quickly. i think i'm tired of my bf and we've only been together 3 months!

I was not an only child, but I had a horrible little sister who stole everything I cherished. As as result...I value my space and few possessions highly. I'm not ready to give that up yet.<BR/><BR/><BR/>PeaceNichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16487865010739669022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24148899.post-57003286909850969212007-07-03T22:20:00.000-04:002007-07-03T22:20:00.000-04:00Oh wait- friend #1 it is so real. She's an archit...Oh wait- friend #1 it is so real. She's an architect, very pretty, fun personality, outgoing. One day I called her, and she said, "I can't talk long. When you hear his dog bark, it means that he's home, and I have to hang up!"<BR/><BR/>You know I busted out laughing when I heard the dog bark. HOW RIDICULOUS. We only communicate by email now..I can't deal...<BR/><BR/>Friend #2- Actually, she met him when he was technically homeless, due to a roommate situation, but he was gainfully employed. He moved in with her, now they split the rent. He always takes vacations- mostly without her! The worst is when he said that they shouldn't buy a new mattress b/c the one they had was fine, even if she woke up with a backache. He's 38 years old- why is he living like a college dude? She's dumb ass to accept it.<BR/><BR/>Yes, she wants to leave the situation, but is now in the trap of, I don't want to be alone- even if she technically is! Mind you, she's a 5'10" former model who has a successful career as a fashion designer. <BR/><BR/>It begs the question though- if these women have it together on paper, what goes wrong deep down inside that totally makes them accept less than zero? There is something very attractive when I hear a man refer to the woman whom he has chosen to spend his LIFE with as his WIFE. <BR/><BR/>I'm with you Ms. Confessions, we need to broaden the revolution.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24148899.post-73029769784038911332007-07-03T16:59:00.000-04:002007-07-03T16:59:00.000-04:00Joanne- My point exactly! LOLAnonymous- The friend...Joanne- My point exactly! LOL<BR/><BR/>Anonymous- The friend, who was just laid off, is definitely in a jacked up predicament now. <BR/><BR/>She now has absolutely no power or resource. I understand a man is the head of the household. But we can accept/acknowledge that without having to live under some bullshit dictatorship.<BR/><BR/>For your second friend, the expression why buy the cow when the milk is free comes to mind. LOL<BR/>Now she’s the ass for accepting an excuse as “he doesn’t have enough money” for not getting married.<BR/><BR/>Are you freaking kidding me? And I bet you he has a nice shiny car, nice clothes, and toys to reinforce the perception of not having enough money... LMAO!!<BR/><BR/>I swear I can do bad by myself…Ms. Confessionshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12040573830472726532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24148899.post-65873026983559784032007-07-03T14:42:00.000-04:002007-07-03T14:42:00.000-04:00My friend is currently living with her boyfriend, ...My friend is currently living with her boyfriend, and they bought a house together. He's the jealous type, runs her emotionally and financially with an iron fist (he's a collections agent). Anyway, she just got a laid off from her job the other day. Immediately I though, she's totally screwed now. <BR/><BR/>Another friend has been living with a guy for 7 years, and initially thought marriage was no big deal- until she's seen every one of their coupled friends get married. Then the light gets brighter that he has no intention of marrying her. The reason? He told her he doesn't have enough money! WHAT? Wait- so let me get this straight, you have enough money to live together every single day for seven years, but not enough to spend less than $100 to get married and continue doing the same thing? <BR/><BR/>Totally agree with your post.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24148899.post-55268248498035081992007-07-03T11:51:00.000-04:002007-07-03T11:51:00.000-04:00Totally agree, if you're going to make a commitmen...Totally agree, if you're going to make a commitment why would you half-a** it?Joannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17631567501485214482noreply@blogger.com
