(Reasons We're Probably Not) Dating Or In A Relationship Thread NSFW • Page 417

How many times a week would one say is too many for a significant other to have company over?

 

Depends on the company. Elaborate.

 

A group of guys my boyfriend has known forever. They come over and hang out in my living room playing PS4, on my new furniture, for I don't know, 4-6 hours at a time when I get off work.

Side note: They also play D&D together on the weekends, if that better explains the type of company we're referring to here.

 

If you're cool with it and it's just guys hanging out, not an issue.

Keep in mind though it's your space too, and if you feel as though it's too much, just let him know. What's to stop them from hanging out and gaming at one of the other guys' houses?

 

I'm not cool with it happening 4-5 times a week. I'd be cool if it was 2-3.

I constantly tell him it's too much and that I'd like to just come home from work one night and sit on the recliner, watching TV. But, the shit keeps happening. They all live in apartments, they have more space and freedom here, I guess.

 

relationships are full of ups and downs but the ups make everything so worth it. just seeing a smile on her face makes everything worth it.

 

You say that now. Are you two still in the honeymoon phase?

 

hell fucking no lol we've been living together since august, started living together in my parents house we moved to philadelphia together in january trust me day to day isnt exactly easy but its all worth it and i love her to death

 

Well, that's good to hear. My boyfriend and I have been together five years. I love him but I need some fucking space.

 

Sounds pretty reasonable to me to suggest that they don't come over so often. Finding your house full of people basically every night sounds shit.

 

I think it's reasonable; it gets so exhausting to come home and not have anywhere to go but my bedroom. His solution to the issue? "Come out here and hang out with us while we play video games." Hahaha, that's exactly what I want to do after an eleven hour shift.

 

Yeah. That's just rubbish. He needs to put his grown up pants on and consider the person he shares a home with.

 

Yeah, me and the dog, damnit.

 

LOL god, my ex made SUUUUCH a huge deal of people coming over if we were to live together and i was like please not like, every day or every other day. once or twice a week is ok. and he got all sensitive.

every day i'm more happy the relationship is over.

SORRY. Shit. This sounded bad. I was just reflecting.

 

keep your chin up bud i want to see you happy and succeed.

 

So last night my wife decided we should stop physically seeing each other, we've lived apart for a little over a month, but try to do things together once a week. I have no intentions of cheating on her until we both decide it's time to move on, but like I'm just at a loss to find a place to even start. I have no single guy friends, the group of friends I have, like me, are married with kid(s) and just aren't willing to go out. I've been looking at the county adult sports leagues but all of them suggest you join as a team (not individually) which kind of feels like a bummer. I'm introverted so going to a bar or something alone just doesn't seem like fun. And I'm part of a small IT team with no one my age.

 

Damn man, didn't realize you were going through that, that's rough. Sorry to hear man.

 

I'm so sorry to hear that. If you were closer, I'd say let's go out and grab some beers. I can be a decent wing man. If you ever want to come up to PA, we will go out and have a good time.

 

Have you tried Meetup? I've been to a couple and it seems like you could make friends if you go to one with a decent turnout

 

I'm still bitter that my friends turned our guy night tonight at a baseball game into them hanging with girlfriends at the game while making me a loner.

like they told me last night that they were all bringing girlfriends and expected me to find a date in less than a day.

 

I'd second this.

 

I've got a date tonight, seeing Robocop at an indie cinema. Stranger still, the woman in question asked me out.

We won't really get chance to speak before it starts (we're likely going for a drink after), so I've got two hours of awkwardly sitting with this girl in the dark before I can properly speak to her.

 

Man, I am beyond sorry. I have no words to comfort you so I'm not even going to try but I feel for you man, I can't imagine what that's like. How old is your kid?

 

I just looked at this, some good stuff, but also some really weird super religious stuff. Thanks for that

Thanks man, it's super tough and fills me with so much anxiety, it's been pretty shitty. Like we used to be so in love and at one point just randomly talked about which one of our friends we thought would divorce first. Ironic now.

Kid is a year and a half.

 

I've been preaching meetup for a bit. Who's been using it?
