So, what kind of spouse are you/would you be (or partner, if marriage isn't your thing)?
When I met my husband, I didn't pull any stops. I ate the way I normally eat. Maybe with a little spaghetti on my face sometimes and I didn't sugar coat anything. No surprises.
I asked my husband, "if you could change one thing about me, what would it be?" He said "you ask too many questions... like that one." :\
So, what should a person know about you, if they were to live with you (legal documents or no).
Here is mine:
Oh and I'm pretty sure my feet are made of ice. Chiseled ice cubes.
Great post! Lots of laughs and some good insider information!
If you're married to me, or even my friend, I'm fiercely loyal and honest. Pretty upfront. You won't have to guess, and you can trust me with money or people. If you need me, Ill be there.
Most of my family has passed so other than my son, YOU will be my family! I have loads of friends to go along with my many interests so I can get busy at times.
Its a package deal. I have a 12 year old son that I love so much! I promised him I'd only date people who would enrich and makes both our lives more fun and adventurous. So you have to be that.
You need to love travelling, trying new things and going on adventures big and small. I am a pro at making fun in our own back yard. Swim, fish, hunt, hike, 4 wheeling, and mentoring kids happens a lot around here too. We are basically the Kool Aid house.
I love horses and dogs and don't think I'll outgrow it, so it would be best if you can at least tolerate them well. None of them would sleep in our bed but I DO snore.
I enjoy simple things like hot black coffee, especially in the morning on the deck with good conversation. Euchre, Cribbage, and Poker's fun too, especially in Michigan Winter's. Music and music festivals are high on the summer list.
Basically, I'm an educated hick from the sticks but it's the best of both worlds.
If we were married, I would live in my house and you would live in your house.
In my house, I am queen. What I say, goes.
One of my legs needs to be on top of the blanket.
Don't tell me my music is too loud. Bring ear muffs.
I am a real sweetheart if you meet me at the right time.
I am neither jealous nor possessive.
The sentence "She belongs to me" can only refer to a Bob Dylan song,
Being married to me would suck, though my soon to be ex wife stuck it out for near twenty years (I left her, blah blah reasons).
I'm not going to list my faults, I'm not dangerous, just annoying.
So in the vanishingly unlikely event that one of you runs into me and decides that you might quite like to get shackled to me, don't.
No, really, don't...
Yeah I snore.
I love animals, but definitely not in my bed, preferably not in the house.
I refuse to pay for cable tv.
I travel for a living. Please be able to take care of yourself.
I own a chainsaw, I sharpen it myself.
I don’t like clutter, but I also have a hard time tossing things.
I use the word Fuck way too much.
I’ve never been married or lived with anyone so the situation would culture shock for me.
As I'm using this for a dating site, I ain't saying - keeping that stuff hidden, of course! (until I must reveal it).
I'm bipolar and struggle with depression, I have insomnia, drool, snore and sometimes talk in my sleep. I eat like a hog, I hate spiders and hate loose hair (pubes or anything not attached to the body), I like a clean bathroom and I may or may not fuss at you about the toilet seat being up, depends on the day and my mood. I make random noises when i'm bored, i'm annoying and will bug you to death, I like watching you brush your teeth and shave because I like admiring your beauty even when you're doing simple things so expect me to stare. It can not be cold nor hot in the house, it must stay on 70s at all times. Sex at least once a week is mandatory. I don't use my brain all the time, so except really dumb stuff to happen. I'm emotional and i'm used to liars, so don't even try because I will find out and if it's something major... like sneaking around and cheating on me, I will make your life a living hell.
I snore. I like great sex. I am very open minded. I dislike paranoia. I don't mind dirt. I tell it how I see it, no filters.
I'm sure it's like heaven being married to me, but I may be biased, you should ask my wife.
So, here are a few things about me....
After being married for 10 years(still in effect) I would not look for a marriage situation since that usually just turns into a power struggle because once you have that legal binding document, there is a guillotine looming over any serious disagreement. I think a common agreement to support each other, be the first responder for life's difficult moments, and show affection and deep emotional connection is all a relationship needs, not a paper saying "live-together-or-else".
You should know:
1.I snore, esp because I can rarely get a full nights sleep and when I do sleep, I'm sleeping hard.
2.I am usually quiet but get fun and goofy often, if you need to talk I can't read minds.
3.I enjoy solo or duo activities over large social happenings.
5.I have many hobbies: Drums, video games, guitar, computer/technology/programming, song editing/production, but I can shut all that down for a good cuddle movie/convo.
I am and can be passionate about some topics as religion & the Environment. I can get on my high horse but it is easy to bring me down .
Also need alone times and can feel frustrated when someone places an inordinate amount of need on my time.
3.I am often a creature of habit. Time to bed and rise (early). Meal times especially not late at night.
Absolute need to share open and honest feelings (emotionally and physically). Don't like to play guessing games.
I hate clutter and too much stuff. I need a clean, tidy home (which I am willing to maintain).
I don't like too much heat and keep the house cooler (around 66 degrees)
Dietary habits are important to me and am a pretty strict pescatarian. I like to cook and don't mind being the main preparer of meals.
I like to shower (in the summer) outside and pee outside all year around.
I need a dark/ cool/quiet - no snoring- bedroom with no TV and no electric blankets.
I hate rats in the crawl space (like I had 2 years ago - the alpha females are the smartest and worst).
I am an introvert and hate confrontation. That doesn't seem to work well with cohabiting. I think living alone works best for me. Me and my Lady of 27 years live separately in our own houses. I think what she sees in me is a kind, honest, loving, generous and loyal man, with a good sense of humor.
I'm probably not a good choice because I do the following.
I'm a toucher. The more I like you, the more I touch.
I read, a lot: news (PBS, CNN, Fox News, local newspaper, foreign newspapers online), archaeology, dictionaries, encyclopedias if I can find one, and anything having to do with the history of the English language. Things I don't read: assembly instructions, informational signs (ring bell for service, out of order and wet paint signs). If it's quiet, I'll read the day away.
I am extremely loyal through sickness and through health as long as he is.
Don't hang on me except in bed.
I still have a high sex drive (curse or not).
I would enter into a long term relationship if I met the right guy. Even relocate.
1.I love animals. If I moved would probably let my daughter stay in my house with my dog and cat.
My partner would have animals. A horse and/or farm animals would be a bonus. My father grew u p up on a farm and I've always wanted to live on a farm or ranch.
2.I'm a very tactile person - like physical intimacy.
I'm afraid of fire. I can't light a match.
I am not -mechanical or media savy.
I yell at my tv when tRUMP says something stupid.
Your throat must be very sore by now.... (5)
I'll grab my partners feet, and if need be curl up at the foot of the bed, to warm them up.
lots of oral sex. Fully committed to enjoying the hell out of your partner enjoying it. (bonus points for returning the favor, but as long as I can do my thing, that's enough.)
If it turns into a battle for dominance, everyone looses, not only will I leave, once my tolerance breaks I'll put in some well aimed shots. (I am a lover not a fighter, but if it is war, it's magnificent)
Try to spend what you earn, I don't mind providing food and shelter, demanding jewelry beyond my capacity to provide it? Not cool.
it's only cute when I hog the covers, if you do the same, we need more covers, and on cold nights I will shamelessly burrow into your warmth.
I flirt with everything with a heart beat. That 160 year old turtle at the zoo, those cuttlefish in a tank? Random strangers in the street? Not planning on sleeping with them.
I am not planning on being anything but me, to avoid disappointment, learn what that is rather than making other plans for me (I'll endevour to do the same)
"A new Level of Hell, not found in the bible" that's what she said before closing the door.
