Girlfriends

[z31maniac]

TL:DR

Cliffs?

[JBird]

CLIFFS: Met first boyfriend at work, he took me to France & Switzerland twice, been together for 3.5 years. We're 5 years apart. We have lots in common about life, activities, politics, religious beliefs, ways of thinking. Some differences like, he's a bit more high-strung and moody than I am. He also has a great career, while I am still in the process of finishing my bachelors.

How old are you TimKninja? How many other long relationships have you been in? You are probably still young and have plenty of time to find other girlfriends. Maybe you can take this as a learning experience for what kind of traits you do and don't like in a girlfriend. You should join some clubs and go out to parties and other places to meet more people.

I've been with my boyfriend for about 3.5 years and he's pretty much my first boyfriend. There's been a couple other dudes that liked me and had asked me out but I wasn't interested. I'm almost 24 and he's 29. I met him where I used to work as a barista and in the cafe at Intel. He used to come by and get coffee. One day, we both started talking about kayaking and how we want to go kayaking again. At the end of the day, he came by and gave me his email address and the name of a place to go kayaking. So I emailed and then called him and we went.

We have a lot in common I think. He's fun to hang out with and go do stuff with. We both like camping, cars, hiking, biking, the same types of music, video games, walking, doing spontaneous things, cooking together, and just doing things together. We also have a lot of the same views on things in life, politics, religion, and future goals. There are some differences though, such as him being a little high-strung and moody. He gets mad at things easier than I do. I'm super laid back and don't get mad easily at things, so I am slowly teaching him and telling him how to not get mad at little things and to not let others make you mad. You are in control of your own happiness!

We also teach each other a lot about different things and are able to talk to each other about our feelings. I'm not entirely sure if I truly love him. I don't say "I love you" very often at all. He says it more often. I just don't know if I know what love is yet. Maybe it's because he's my first real boyfriend and I haven't experienced love yet?

If we ever break up, it's going to probably suck a lot because of how long it's been. I've never experienced breaking up with anyone, so I'm not looking forward to it! I hope it never happens. Has anyone ever heard of marrying your first boyfriend/girlfriend? My dad was my moms first boyfriend and they've been married for all of my life and before.

was not waxing so much as just making a point. But how come people are not grown up till they are approaching 30 or better now???? CUz most are coddled and not expected or have reason to grow up till then if ever. No one is given a reason to grow up till then. I was on my own at 17, I guess I just grew up fast

No really its not easier when you are gone like I am, its like a long distance relationship, that is in limbo all the time. Its a VERY VERY hard life style to maintain a strong committed relationship

Not arguing why, just saying that's how it is, so saying it should be different is an exercise in futility.

[ck_taft325is]

Everyone argues that we're kids until we're 30. Sorry, but some people just choose to be so. Don't make blanket statements because a lot of young marrieds arn't making them about any of the young, dumb and full of cum singles.

Anyways OP, move on, man. Just be a person and get to know some peoples. It's really not hard just do it. If you're stupid awkward socially learn to not be. Make the choice not to be. Otherwise, grow a pair, ask a girl out and have a job.

You must be really new here.


but you are kinda right post up in the NWS pic thread in OT Not here lol

Fairly haha but I'm bowling now so please keep your eyes open for em in a few hrs haha I got like 49 or so on my phone Hahahaha and where do I post em sir sorry for the thread jack op!

Hence my suggestion. In our society, people are basically still children until they are approaching their 30s. So waxing philosophical about how things were 100 years ago is kind of pointless.

Also, your comment earlier. It's easy to handle someone when you are gone 75% of the time.

life in general was a miserable existence, based mostly on subsistence living. So the photos reflect the life, what did you expect.




No arguments there either, but my point still remains no one is willing to WORK shit out or make a genuine attempt anymore. Its take the easy way out of everything when the going gets tough. There is no loyalty to anyone or anything any more, its all about what I WANT RIGHT NOW. Our generation has been conditioned, that you can have anything you want when you want it with little to No effort involved to get it. If you are not happy then thats enough to abandon all your commitments.

its bull shit loyalty is a corner stone to society and its going the way of the doo doo

Haha oh geez I have an album full of the exs nude haha I'm not home now but I'll deff post up ladies, but doesn't this violate some sort of terms on the site to post up full nudes? Haha? Just curious?

Yeah it's pretty accepted to post pics of ex's here on R3V (you are actually respected for doing so). I'd post pics of mine but they were all too prude to even let me go down on them.

Gotta get me some nasty hoes!

No. R3v rocks. You will, however, be made fun of if you go back on your word.

Divorce is seen as acceptable now. We're much less of a religious society now.. or not as strict followers.
