Lord of the Advice: Fellowship of the Relationship

[LOBO3315a]

There's a great video series! "Amish Girls Gone Wild!" Watch her as she uses zippers and buttons for the FIRST TIME!!!!!

Englishman! Put thy hands upon me!

Giving a pedicure to a girl is bad enough, but to one that you're not even tapping is just too dumb to live territory.

My girlfriend is a makeup artist, and I told her as soon as we got together that I wasn't going to be one of her models.

 

[amazingfantasy15]

I can. Children like that tend to really let loose.

Yeah, but the way LA originally said it, it sounded more like her rule, than her parents.

No it was more of parents. She told me that she hates that her parents still strict even though she's 20 already.

Yeah, at 20, any sane kid wants to be able to let loose and get away from the parents already, if they had the money to move out.

 

[L.A.]

And now my ex just text me first time in a month saying she still loves me and wants to get back with me. Delete?!

 

[terry78]

If you're not paying for **** or moved out, unfortunately parents have the last say.

Yea she told me she's moving out once she becomes a nurse

Ignore or delete.

Ha....asian nurses.

My girlfriend and I will be moving in together soon, which isn't an issue. Its only a temporary thing for a few months, we wont be bringing all of our things. But when a talking of the future, when we'd be moving to a more permanent residence, shes pointed out a few things of mine that she REFUSES to have in her home. Most of the things that she doesn't want, are understandable. Except for one item. That item is, a life sized cut out of Lion Man. You know from the car commercials a few years ago?

She hates the Lion Man. I love my Lion Man. Neither one of us will budge on the matter. I said I'd get rid of the Lion Man if we ever get married, but I will not throw things out for a girlfriend, just so that she and I can later break up, resulting in me resenting her for making me abandon cherished item.

Am I right?

 

[Erzengel]

You're 23 years old. Why the eff do you have a cut out of anything?

 

[BillPardy]

Slight hoarder tendencies.

 

[Erzengel]

You know the saying, pick your battles?

This isn't the battle.

Throw it out.

You're not 'right', but you're not 'wrong'. It's simply a matter of tastes/dislikes.

In any case, I say keep it. It's a temporary living arrangement. Stick it in a closet or something until you move out. Be conscientious of how she feels about it and don't rub it in that you 'won'.

Honestly, I don't get the women who are so controlling of men and their items.

Re: Hoarding. Just how much *do* you hoard? ;

 

[steintym]

No reason to completely get rid of it. Just store it away for the time being.

I have a lot of crap like that which will proudly be displayed once our basement gets finished.

 

[Nell2ThaIzzay]

What the **** is Lion Man?

 

[WillardNation]

Keep the cut out at a friend's house.

Well there are nerve endings....I suppose I can understand.

Also, half or more of the enjoyment of sex is in the mind.

There's also erogenous zones. I used to date a girl who I could get off just by kissing on her neck. I still remember the first time I discovered that.

 

[LOBO3315a]

What the **** is Lion Man?

It's what a man does whenever his lips are moving.



I'm here all week! Try the veal!

You're right to acknowledge that you are in a casual (ie: not married) relationship and therefore she has no business demanding that you throw away your own property. If she can't respect that...

Have you demanded that she get rid of anything? I would be cautious about this. It could simply be that she is hoping to have a "grown up" home with you, but it could also be a sign of controlling behavior which you want to avoid like the plague.

That being said, does this thing really mean that much to you? That'd you'd be willing to ruin a relationship over? (The same can be said about her). I'd try and comprimise and just store it in a closet, or if you have an office that is your own, keep it in there.

Regardless, keep my second paragraph in mind.

 

[Schlosser85]

Don't throw it away.

Nice! lol

It depends on what it is.

My bf has receipts from (I'm not kidding) 2006. RECEIPTS. Like from Whole Foods.

An unusual cardboard cutout that has some sentimental value to you, I can understand. Kind of. But CREDIT CARD RECEIPTS??? You can throw that away once Whole Foods ain't taking it back anymore.

I've asked him to go through it and recycle them. He left literally bags of them when he moved back up. I can't believe he took them with him for the past 5 or so moves. He's gone through one bag, and the others are under my bed. It just doesn't make sense to me since he's repeatedly said he wants to live a minimalist lifestyle, but still hoards grocery receipts and feels the need to trudge them with him whenever he moves to a new apartment. I mean really.

 

[SpaceWay2009]

^LMAO...Hoarding receipts of groceries? Never heard that one before.

 

[terry78]

His shopping at Whole Foods voluntarily already made me raise an eyebrow before the mention of receipts.
