What would it be like to be married to you?

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:

  1. My sleep is erratic.
  2. I need to have alone time.
  3. I like a quiet house.
  4. I have a few phobias like bugs and germs...
  5. Hate clutter and I donate things every time I buy something.

Oh and I'm pretty sure my feet are made of ice. Chiseled ice cubes.

1, I will spontaneously burst into Elvis / Dean Martin impersonations.
2. If sat in front of a log fire I will fall asleep.
3. The love for my classic car is matched only by a mother's love.
4. My cats name is Princess Badgerpuss, get over it, she has.
5. I will be in my workshop in my spare time, but don't worry, I'm probably handcrafting you a gift.

@silvereyes, I cannot believe you'd laugh at an innocent cute fluffy kitten.

@Dav87 ...handcrafted gifts, you say? Hmmm, again, funny what you find when you snoop your significant others site. haha!

@Dav87 oh yeah, and I Want that cat!!!

@Sadoi she will be our cat 😉 x

@Dav87 awww... okay. that is an agreeable option. ❤ 😉

Aside from what is already on my profile, I don't want to marry again. It would take a lot for me to consider cohabitating, but I would enter at some point into a dedicated monogamous relationship with the right person and I'm down for sleepovers.
I try to stay balanced in all areas of my life. I am a fairly independent person (but I struggle with some of my cleaning chores now though, and it's driving me crazy.)

I repurpose a lot of things, and usually have some kind of craft project going on. I do spring and fall cleaning/ organizing purges, and at one point kept a garden. I don't mind "living" in my house during the downtime and when folks are there, but I want most often to wake up to a clean de-cluttered and organized house. (I can be distracted from that under the right circumstances.) My home is smoke-free. Contact with tobacco smoke causes me to get bronchitis, even if it's on your clothing, so if you smoke I cannot date you.

I'm a nocturnal person that sleeps by day and functions by night. I sleep on my side, and yes I snore. I love pillow talk. In privacy, I'm a cuddler both in and out of bed. I give massages, and I love wake-up sex. I love 'presence' and you will be given my full attention when you are there, but I also need my alone time.

I don't have cable for my TV. I like my quiet peaceful apt, and most often I will wait to go out for the more boisterous and rowdy activities. On occasions, I do have small gatherings with friends though, and will expect your friends, and family to eventually become a part of that also. I still hostess a pretty good live-streamed Superbowl party.

I love children, but they drain my energy nowadays. I function with them best if I can have structured planned time for interacting with them, and if younger than teen years, preferably if accompanied by parents. (Emergencies are the exception.) I am at a stage where if I date someone with children they need to be grown.

I like to cook, and I also eat meat. I will try most things. I cannot eat some of my favorite foods. I like to go out to restaurants and find activities to do on paydays when money comes in though. I would pamper and spoil you to the best of my ability, but I would also expect you to help me with things like heavy lifting, opening jar lids, and getting things from the top shelf.
I'm recovering from the flu now and had to turn down an opportunity, but I travel at the drop of the hat at almost every opportunity if I know a person well enough to trust them.

I have a few phobias... like spiders...and... spiders. (Did I happen to mention spiders?)
I have an agreement with bugs. As long as they remain in their own habitat, I will respect them and try not to disturb them. When they enter into my domain, they are risking their own life.

Donna Level 6 Dec 28, 2017

Wake up sex. Is that what it's called. In general, you are a person I would like to meet.

@Donna
You are generous in your descriptions of things, but I knew as soon as I saw it, that some would zero in on "morning sex" as if you'd said nothing else. (grin)

LOL....SMH...

Did I happen to mention spiders?

@Donna You did indeed. You can send them to me - I love spiders ! ever since I was little...

Why can't you eat some of your favorite foods? Allergies?

I suppose. I have never had it tested to find out. I just know that one day I could eat and enjoy them, and then out of the blue, my system refused to allow that to happen, so I had to stop eating them. I still go back to test every so often. It's frustrating.

I sleep with my dog.. I snore and he kicks and farts.

My work schedule is a disaster.days and some overnights.

I hate kids and use words like rug rats, nose miners,breeders, and breeding.

I use bad language often.

I call men who like traditional ultra feminine women kitten fuckers. Obviously I'm not a Ultra traditional feminine female

I’m often inclined to use phrases like rug rats, but that would be unacceptable for a teacher. Maybe lazy assholes.

LMAO @ "kitten fuckers" !!! Hysterical!

@SKDeitch lol I'm a real catch!!!!!!! Lol!!!!

@Kojaksmom I'm still cracking up over "nose miners" !

I've been married to me for a long time, and it seems to be working out. But other people who have attempted don't appreciate these few things:
I) I can't just sit around and do nothing. I get fidgety.
2) I don't need people much. I came to realize that most people need to feel needed. I fail at making people feel needed.
3) I am a MMA junkie. But the person with me doesn't have to be, (see number 2).
4) I live for alone time. But I can be alone and share a room with someone (see number 2). A talent I learned in the marines.
5) I don't care about money. I give things away all the time. If I were married, I would not do that without the consent of my partner, however. I am big on sharing decisions if I am in a relationship. Saves on arguments.
6) I laugh a lot.
7) I listen to truly obnoxious music, but do not need my partner to listen to same music (see number 2). In fact, it doesn't matter what my wife listens to, I will make fun of it. And I expect the same in return or I will think you don't care.
8) I am perpetually creating something. About 12-16 hours a day or more...I will stop to bow chi chi bow bow or just have 'us' time. I'm not that bad. Okay, maybe I am....hehe.

@Kreig I don't think there ever is a 'bad' year...One Championship, Bellator, LFA, VictoryFC, TitanFC, Bamma, Rage O' Cage...etc. I like watching the fighters develop...Till was a big surprise...Moraes going from World Series Of Fighting was awesome...217 and 218 were really good events though...as for holloway, the guy is a 9 out of 10 fighter....he will win 9 out of 10 times against almost anybody, but the same thing that makes him exciting makes him beatable....great champ, though....Looking forward to Frankie and Max...

@Kreig Gaethje was the World Series Of Fighting Light Weight Champion...he was a savage...and still is....that fight between Eddie and Justin had me almost passing out from holding my breath....what a great fight by both competitors...Oh yeah, I would love to see a Conor vs Max fight....Max is so much better now....but mcgregor is the master sniper of the lighter weights....the fight that is giving me shivers right now is Miocic Vs Ngannou....how the hell is Miocic going to handle that guy...I don't think I've ever been more impressed with the power of a heavy weight (I was a heavy weight, guess still am...hehe) as I am with Ngannou...

I barely even know me, and when I'm in a room with myself I tend to ignore myself. I keep forgetting my name, and I refuse to share the covers when I'm cold. I tease myself, and sometimes I pull practical jokes on myself.

This guy... I like this guy.

3

I, too, need my alone time and a quiet space. I can be surly, especially in the morning. I'm not sure I'm really cut out to be a partner. I'm not sure I'm healthy for anyone.

2

Gawd, from everything you say, you could be my soulmate... except for the last item. Oopsie!

godef Level 7 Dec 28, 2017

@silvereyes - Yeah, I struggle with clutter. In my head and my home.

5

According to my ex, and she otta know, it would be living hell.

Lol

2

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...

1

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.

2

I've changed a lot since I was last in any long-term relationship.
I'm older and not nearly as wild as I used to be.

  1. I too like it quiet, it's very loud where I am now.

  2. I can't stand when the sink is full of dishes, and I don't just mean dirty ones. If the drying rack is full I can't walk past it I have to put them away. Then I'll wash any dirty ones and put them in the drying rack. 😛

  3. Sometimes I snore...badly.

  4. Guilty pleasure: Occasionally I'll watch those moronic shows on The History Channel like Ancient Aliens for a laugh. It's like watching a comedy program.

  5. Between all of the seizures I've had and the meds I'm on, sometimes have a trouble finding the words I want to say. or I can't comprehend a simple question for a second. It can be a little embarrassing, but that's what you get.

Icy feet are easy to overlook when you're with the right person. 🙂

I've finally become honest with myself. At this point in my life it would take a very rare bird to be happy in a relationship with me. I'm a bit of a slob. I wouldn't live with someone again. I spend most of my time with my minor children. Worse yet, that time spent with them is usually at their mother and step-dads house. That's a long story. And on top of that, I need a lot of alone time. I guess it would kind of suck.

3

To be married to me would be horrible, I would hate it, and I am probably the only person who could tolerate me. I have been happily divorced for almost 25 years, my ex wife and I do not get on, but she still wants me back. 3 actual relationships since them, couple of years at most, but I still get on with these ladies, 2 of them I speak to daily and all 3 want to marry me. Silly women. The 3rd makes contact occasionally and all contacts with all 3 of them a very friendly. I am a bit of a control freak, not of other people, but of me an my surrounding, I fix things, not a handyman, but I don't leave problems unresolved. I can cook, far better than any women I have been in a relationship with, and I am a better mother, ha. I have raised most of their children, even when the kids weren't mine, in fact a couple of "not mine" kids are ion the next room at the moment gaming with my son. I am overweight and sore when overweight, I am very hot, it is impossible to sleep with me in anything but the cold of winter. I can't be lied to, it makes me very angry, and I can tell if someone is lying to me. I neither forgive nor forget any injustice. I am very kind, but not generous. Did I say I have been alone most of my life? I wonder why?

1

I would make a great spouse. No baggage. Passionate. Pre-house trained.

5

Kind of like being married to a white guy version of Urkle.

OMgawd, I never thought of it before, but that is me! No marriage, no cohabiting on account of it, I would probably fall on you & hurt you, whoever you ain't gonna be

2

Wonderful! I am in agreement your points listed above with the exception of number 4. Bugs do not bother me and when you think about it we are walking chemical/bug factories....

1

You guys make me feel inferior. I have only been married once. Had a few girlfriends since then but now I am open to offers. (Girlfriends are still friends - just don't wanna fuck anymore. I didn't think it was THAT bad!)

Eh, I haven't been married at all. Maybe that is why I recon foreplay is the best four hours of sex.

1
  1. I like to cook
  2. I play video games
  3. I think cats are great
  4. Some of my socks are blue
  5. I've never been to Indonesia
5

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.

  1. I'm afraid of fire. I can't light a match.

  2. I am not -mechanical or media savy.

  3. I yell at my tv when tRUMP says something stupid.

Your throat must be very sore by now.... (5)

1

completely uninhibited, only get pets I can eat and 90% of the time I'm naked

2

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.

1
  1. I'm a toucher. The more I like you, the more I touch.

  2. 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.

  3. I am extremely loyal through sickness and through health as long as he is.

  4. Don't hang on me except in bed.

  5. I still have a high sex drive (curse or not).

2

I'm probably not a good choice because I do the following.

  1. I like to cook and create foods tastes. I would get you fat. My wife blames me for her problem.
  2. I'm always telling my wife to be grateful and to remember how it use to be. We live like kings and queens. I would say - better than them. She gets frustrated to easily. She's bipolar. Whew!
  3. I'm not that romantic anymore... I should be... but I'm not. I'm loving and helpfull and attentive.
  4. I want to iron out a situation before we go to bed. I don't want to stew about it all night long
  5. No drinking while taking pain meds... no no No!
  6. My wife says, don't use that psychology on me...
  7. I'm always telling her to read the directions... she spent hours trying to program the GPS in her jeep. I said please read the directions Susie!
  8. I talk in my sleep. I've been to a lot of places. Ive done a lot of things. Ive had relationships with other ladies. Please don't answer my dreams or be offended by what I say. It's a dream. Stay away!
  9. Please don't answer questions for me when someone is asking me a question. Hmmm?
  10. I'm 65 years old... let's keep it simple. No roller coasters or crazy rides. I walk a little slower so you may pass me up but don't get mad if I'm following behind. I will try to keep up. See im no fun...lol.

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.

  1. Yelling causes me to shut down, if you can't say something with a somewhat cool attitude I'd rather we think on it.

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.

2
  1. 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 .

  2. 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.

  3. Absolute need to share open and honest feelings (emotionally and physically). Don't like to play guessing games.

  4. I hate clutter and too much stuff. I need a clean, tidy home (which I am willing to maintain).

  5. I don't like too much heat and keep the house cooler (around 66 degrees)

  6. 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.

  7. I like to shower (in the summer) outside and pee outside all year around.

  8. I need a dark/ cool/quiet - no snoring- bedroom with no TV and no electric blankets.

  9. I hate rats in the crawl space (like I had 2 years ago - the alpha females are the smartest and worst).
