This is the Love thread! Here we discuss our various love-crafts, or lack thereof. Or like tea or whatever. The love thread is pretty fluid, maaan.

    Dear Love thread

    My girlfriend is a blanket hog. She then gets angry when I pull the blanket back so I get my equal share. Because it wakes her up.

    Apparently I have to gently wake her up and then do it.

    It's a literal cold war

    Yeah pretty much. Though I'm having a chat with a guy who I messaged so we'll see.

    I feel judgemental as fuck.

    Every once in a while I become aware of my inner monologue as I'm browsing through matches and realize I'm kind of a monster.

    I already know I'm a monster so i've held off signing up to any dating sites/apps, to be fair until I'm living somewhere else a relationship would be quite awkward (still in situ with the ex, 6 months and counting while I wait for the house sale to go through).

    Once I'm free though...

    Date was okay I'm not really sure?

    She was a misantropic pessimist but I kind of liked that? But then it also made it hard for me to know what to think
    There was no smoochies or anything and at times it was awk but then also at times it was good
    And she made mention when we parted ways to maybe get drinks again

    Hm we shall see

    My overeagerness in texting back girl I thought I had really good date with bit me, but then each person is different and not sure how to handle this one

    Welcome to the front lines, soldier. It's rough, cold life on this side of the bed.

    Have you folks considered getting two blankets

    Have you considered getting two beds? Two queen sized beds side by side is the key to marital/cohabitation bliss if one or both of the people is some combination of an active mover and a light sleeper.

    Had a second date with the lady from OKC yesterday. We spent all day at Universal and it went pretty well. She said she can tell I'm not from here because I'm happy and generally positive, which I thought was amusing. In the longer lines, she tended to hold onto my arm and doze on my shoulder, which after a a year of no real physical contact was nice.

    She's a cool lady. I just hope she's able to find her feet, both with respect to finishing her education and professionally. I'm in no rush, though, so I'm happy to just kind of let things play out.

    Sex Dungeon and/or home cinema room (perhaps a combination of the two?)

    I think for it to be a sex dungeon it should have to be below ground level. At ground floor it's more of a sex office

    2... queen size beds?

    When we moved in together we both had queen sized beds and the master bedroom happened to be big enough to fit them both. I suppose we could make due with a king, but there would be no way we'd have made it with only one queen.

    edit: we call it a super-queen

    I sleep on just the left hand side of my queen, which I've had for I think 2 years now? Single bed habits are hard to break.

    You're right, there is a lot of paperwork involved.

    We had takeout from a good Indian place last night and watched Game of Thrones and played Pokemon. This isn't too dissimilar from several previous nights with her, and I gotta say I'm at a loss as to how it's possible to improve upon this date concept.

    Tonight we're probably going to eat something nice I make while we watch a terrible movie and heckle it while playing Pokemon, which I guess is definitely a close second!

    It has been two months of really really good times split between fun dates and basically sleepovers with a friend who's incredibly cute and also who I'm dating :D.

    I guess I should text back this girl at some point

    I'm still not sure how to read it or what to say

    And for a long term thing she may be too negative for me (because i tend to be negative and need a counter balance)

    But she would be fun to hang out with and go to concerts with and (also tbh I need to smash I might die)
    Which are fine reasons

    I'm currently sleeping by myself in a queen, and its enormous.

    I do OK in a full/double.

    I'm only 5'11" but the height issue often plagues me.

    hello love thread.

    Beds? I've had a california king and I still had my feet dangle off the edge. I'm 6'6" though. Honestly, I like sleeping on the edge. It drove the ex crazy that Id always face away.

    One of the girls I was dating went full Fatal attraction on me and messaged my ex wife when I ended things. She said that she didn't blame me for the breakup but my ex. it was weird.

    On the dating front my highschool best friend recently popped back into my life. Long story short, we're both in the same boat. Well, not exactly. See we definitely had a pretty in pink thing going on, and I was totally her duckie.

    Except now she feels the same for me. I know this because we got a Liiiitle drunk and went for a nice walk. things are complicated for both of us, but it's kind of amazing. we're heading out tonight and hanging with her gay friends who are a hoot.

    I am also a single dude with no ambitions, but I'm more of a delicate flower and am really only comfortable sleeping on my bed (and, frankly, I probably need a new one of those).
