The first words out of his mouth - 'what is this stuff? It tasted so good, I drank the whole thing last night.'
Omg, lol!

Ok, Ok.. I should have learned. Several of you know I divorced about 6 years ago after a long marriage and swore I was a smarter man. I have dated a wine-oholic off and on since then whom I've helped clean up her act and get her chit together. So all seems to be going well, right?

Well...... late last year she says "I think it's time me, my 17yo daughter and 2 cats move in with you". Now I'm usually a smarter guy but something happened where I said "Sure". Man, was I not thinking clearly.

So I have this nice comfortable life, nice home, no hassles, just me with total freedom. I sell most of my furniture and She moves in and starts telling me which bathroom I can use, where my clothes can go, that she doesn't like to cook (but she likes for me to cook).

Luckily for me, we've decided it's time for her to hit the road Jack. I've got to restock with some furniture but that's a small price to pay for some sanity.

No more, never again. I've learned it's nice to have you're own space. If I snore I don't feel guilty or get kicked out of my very own bed. I can leave my shoes where ever and for several days if I want

It's nice to have a relationship. It's even nicer when that relationship has her own house.

Thanks, I feel better now. This is not thread worthy. It don't need their advice.

Glad you got that off your chest.

Also glad that now you have a clearer idea of what your wants and needs are, in or out of a relationship. Now if you have another go of it in the future, with your newfound self-awareness, you can negotiate honestly for what you need and want. Whether that is your own separate homes, or at least your own space. Don't settle for less than what you need, and don't hesitate to try for what you want!

So there was a leak in my shower from the person above. Turns out there is water damage and the walls and possibly the floor need to get replaced. And I’ll have no bathroom for several days.

My boyfriend has been looking for a better job. He's applied for a couple of jobs at my company and there have been some dismaying delays, following some interviews... This morning I was called into my boss's office and he said he was tired of waiting on HR and was circumventing the process and jumping the chain, because a certain member of higher management involved in hiring happened to be in town this morning. He asked if my boyfriend could meet them at a particular location in an hour and a half.

Well my boyfriend works nights, and got home last night at like 11, and was still asleep when I called him and woke him up. I figured it was worth it, to get a better job, to wake and scramble, even if he might not be thrilled about it. I was right. But he asked me if he should wear his suit. Well, this is a warehouse job (even if it's also mostly a desk job) and my company is very informal anyhow. I strongly believe a suit would be almost weirdly too much. I told him, no, especially since it's so last minute, just put on a nice button shirt and some kind of slacks.

I am friendly with the guy who was meeting him out there, one of the supervisors here. He's super nice. I feel like emailing him and saying, "So bf asked if he should wear a suit, and I advised not to. So if you are less impressed because he was suit-less, you can blame me for that." And then I imagined him replying, "Actually he wore the suit." And me being like "omg."

I have these whole conversations in my head, so then I don't have to have them in real life, you see?

Anyhow, hoping my guy gets the job. The one he has now is stressful and the hours suck.

He told me what she said to him and my eyes went like this:

I'm a woman, I know what she's up to. lol! I told him, "Oh, give me a break!" (She's like, "Oh, you're so this, you're so that...") Gah.

Yes, ick. That could go on for years...make him quit that job!

Heh. I know exactly how that feels. Let me know if you figure out how to deal with it.
