To keep some complaints in, the end was hot, it always ends walking through the fields with grapes, but even that's pretty. Yeah, I got aching muscles, but that's nearly over.

Hope we can walk again for a bit this weekend. I prefer it much over swimming, lol.

That sounds soooo lovely, I wish we had something like that nearby, I'd love to walk in a place like that! I don't drive though so heh, it would have to be really nearby. xD

I somehow have obtained a boyfriend and I still don't know how to feed him
We're each other's first kiss. We both agreed that it was overhyped right after LMAO

That's soooooo sweet, I'm so happy for you~ Why you gotta feed him though? Reverse the gender roles! Make him feed you! :D

For real though, congrats! Hope you guys enjoy your time together! And yeah, elementary school girlfriends don't count! xD


AND YES, I AM ONCE AGAIN 3 PAGES BEHIND. WOOHOO. AT LEAST I AM TRYING. XD

I never received a Boyfriend Care Manual, so I'm running blind
I don't have any jars to keep him in either, I think I heard somewhere that's in the manual? yes I'm being a smartass about the manual bit, but I really do not know how a relationship of this kind works

XD

You know? I don't think anyone knows how this kind of relationship works. Everyone is different and so that means that every couple is as well. In the end, I've found out that it you have any doubt about something, asking him is the easiest way to go about it ^^

My husband is actually my first ever proper boyfriend and somehow we ended up getting married. Still can't figure out what happened ^^
(We actually feed each other. Maybe that's why it works XD)

Lmao don't come looking to me for advice, I'm eternally single! A single for life! A forever alone, or however you wanna define it! :D

Fur real tho, conversation. People seem to neglect actually discussing things, and then wonder why it all fell apart!

Either way, your manual bit made me laugh, so he's in good (comedic) hands! :D

@memoriam:
Yeah, I think yesterday (night for me) we got a bit hyped posting here and there, I think I had three conversations with you in different places.
But it's cool, I think that's the great thing of forums: I could leave for bed and this conversation kept going, and now that I'm up it's here for me to follow up

@Kitalpha:
Girlfriends in elementary school don't count. I don't even know why people call that being boy/girlfriend of anyone

Good for you for having that conversation.
I've been with my husband for 12 years and I never really asked about his previous girlfriends. Well, about one, because I knew her and we had a very unconfortable situation.

Same as Kuuki, I've only had this one proper boyfriend. And it worked out very well despite lacking manuals
In fact I think it's better: there are no rules to follow, just do your thing. Whatever works for you both.

As a feminist I never considered I had to feed him or anything else. He also never considered he had to do manly staff either.
We share chores because someone must do them, but never bothered about what's supposed to be his role or mine in the relationship.


@Moon Star:
Indeed!

I'm the one who does most of the physical chores mainly because I'm the one with the most time and he does the administrative stuff. And that adorable man always thank me when I do something and then I do the same in return when he does. A "thank you" doesn't seem like much but somehow it makes a world of difference for me.
We do alternate the cooking though because we're from different countries and cultures and it allows us to cook our own dishes or things the other might not know. Or rather we do the actual cooking together but we alternate who decides what we cook as well as the shopping.

This!
I don't know many people who divorced but the one person I know it's exactly because they didn't discuss things. Important things. Like money. And children.

I also thank my hubby and he thanks me back. I think it's just natural. There is something to be thankful for, why not put it into words? Everybody likes being appreciated
Words such as "please" or "thank you" are a sign of education and respect, and are always a good thing.


Aw, cooking together sounds so cute!

Hmmm.
Today is the caravan's last day.
Does it usually leave right away at the end of the day or does it linger a few hours to make sure everybody go their items?

The caravan and the shop both disappear at midnight sharp.

My mother was the kind of person who thought that things like "please" and "thank you" weren't words you should use between family. It's always infuriated me a lot. So that my husband is different is always something I've been very appreciative of.

Then I must make sure to spend al my donuts today. Thanks for the input!


My family would use those words. I mean, maybe you use them less than in other contexts, but you do use them.
I think being grateful is always nice, and you should be nice with the people you love too - or maybe even more!


It's cute you're tuned with your partner.
