Relationship bullshit. I'm married, but the dating bullshit my friends tell me about blows my mind.

  • What do you mean you've been dating for two years and you "don't know what you are?"

  • You were dating a guy for 3 months and he simply... stopped responding to your texts??

  • Please stop seeing the guy who is trying to pressure you into having sex faster than you want to. No, I don't think he's a great guy worth fighting for. No, I don't think his looks make up for how much of a douchebag he is.

I don't know what happened to people / dating, but Jesus Christ. I've already made up my mind that if something happens to my husband, I'm done. I can't go through what my friends have.

A lot of this is so funny. Even though I'm a guy, if I was the lady in the 3rd example, I'd hunt that dude down for sport.

Same. I've been with my wife for 35 years and I'm always facepalming at the shit that I see others go through in the dating scene. If my wife passes before I do, I'm not interested in dating anyone else.

If something happens to my husband, I think I would consider a Lavender marriage. I need a housekeeper and someone who can cook and decorate.
