Yes that is quite possible but I'm even less so and I managed to put "in a relationship" in mine. I dunno, I"m thinking that if he was not FB savvy, he'd probably not put in anything at all. Also, I know it's not the same thing but his computer skills are quite sophisticated. I think that I'm seeing this as one more symptom of a relationship where I'm feeling hurried along to the next step before I've had a chance to get used to this one and will have to decide how I'm going to deal with this b/c it's destroying the attraction I feel for him, esp in light of the text I got from him last night where he told me not to bother to come over this weekend and then this morning he told me to disregard and wants to know if I'm on my way.
Update: yes it was a big red flag as it turned out. He started to get really clingy on me and started to freak out last night when I didn't text him back right away though I had texted him first to tell him that I was out with friends and that my phone was about to go dead. Apparently he read some darker meaning into that and started demanding to know what he had done wrong and what he had done to deserve this--I was getting texts even after I went to bed after midnight. Ugh, makes me ill just to think about it. So, that's over. This man is a counselor for heaven's sake but I think I'll run the other way if I meet one again b/c they're the worst--in my experience! The last one was a stalker.
He said a "funny" thing to me last week that I wasn't sure how to take either--he said that I was the heaviest woman that he had ever dated but not to worry about it b/c it didn't bother him a bit. Might have been appropriate if I had brought it up but I didn't--I never discussed my weight worries with him. So now I'm wondering why he's gone and gotten all hung up on a porker since his little talk left me with the impression that he thought he could do better. Another lesson I've learned is that old people should probably not text, lol.
I prefer the expression "living in sin". My religious grandmother used to love that when I recalled her how my brother and my cousins live with their girlfriends as "lovers".
Civil union is the one for homosexual, I think. Or civil partnership.
Civil Union = Legal contract with all the benefits and responsibilities of marriage, just under a different name. Civil unions are only recognized by state-level government agencies, and are only available in Illinois, Colorado, Hawaii, and New Jersey. Though civil unions were originally designed to recognize homosexual relationships, with the exception of Colorado, those states all offer same-sex marriage as well. Thus civil unions are increasingly being associated with people who want the benefits of marriage without the cultural baggage, and not with homosexuals. I know two anti-religious, straight couples in Illinois who have civil unions.
Domestic Partnership= Officially recognized relationship with some, but not all, spousal benefits. Domestic partnerships are usually issued by employers, but some local governments issues domestic partnerships as well as the states of Wisconsin and Nevada. Usually domestic partnership just means you bf/gf is on your insurance plan.
