You don't have good people skills? I don't believe that... Yeah.. I'm a bit too honest "There is no problem so bad you can't make it worse." - Chris Hadfield « Sors le martinet et flagelle toi indigne contrôleuse de gestion. » - my boss

My best answer is in relation to the guy I was with for 5-ish years.. We were pretty well matched. Both had similar street-vs-book smarts.. Although I performed slightly better academically, whereas he had slightly better people skills. I don't think things work out if you don't have similar levels of intelligence - even if they are in different fields..

Just look at it this way - at least you don't need earmuffs in the winter "There is no problem so bad you can't make it worse." - Chris Hadfield « Sors le martinet et flagelle toi indigne contrôleuse de gestion. » - my boss

Then you would be in my shoes!!! "There is no problem so bad you can't make it worse." - Chris Hadfield « Sors le martinet et flagelle toi indigne contrôleuse de gestion. » - my boss

IMO whoever invested most in the place gets to stay, unless you agree otherwise. In my case, the ex and I bought a house together. Given the market, we're pretty stuck with it for now, but even though he was the unhappy one in the relationship, I moved out. Mind you, there is now a lodger who pays for my half of the mortgage, which is only fair. I think it's different when kids are involved.. Whoever stays with the kids, stays with the house & the other partner needs to step up to the plate & at least cover some of the kids' costs.

I like a good giggle. The world sucks too much to be so serious. And so I try and have as much fun as possible. And hey, if you can't laugh at your self what right do you have at laughing at others? OMG!!! Am I the only one who noticed he spelled "hey" correctly??! Does this mean over time we can "teach" him more tricks?!

Yes, you save that for your posts here. BTW. thank you. Are you CrAzY??! I would *never* discuss my deviance *here*!! "There is no problem so bad you can't make it worse." - Chris Hadfield « Sors le martinet et flagelle toi indigne contrôleuse de gestion. » - my boss

Yeah as long as you don't have cankles we guys love strong legs!

Wow!! I'm surprised by these answers!! Well, not shocked, but it's interesting. My legs are the one thing I would consider cosmetically improving. Mostly I find them disproportionately bulky for the rest of my small frame. I don't HATE them, and they're not AWFUL, but I'm not especially happy about them either. Interesting to see the splits between the genders.

Wow - that's amazing!! Did you get her a big pressie for putting up with you for so long?? "There is no problem so bad you can't make it worse." - Chris Hadfield « Sors le martinet et flagelle toi indigne contrôleuse de gestion. » - my boss

You can't be serious?!! You submitted the best pack pic!! Yes, I voted legs - they're not long, sexy and slim.. They're muscle-y from years of running and I don't look lady-like in anything skirt-like. Oh well.. Can't have it all. "There is no problem so bad you can't make it worse." - Chris Hadfield « Sors le martinet et flagelle toi indigne contrôleuse de gestion. » - my boss

Just curious BTW: I'm in no way encouraging people not to like their body - I was just wondering what other people thought. I'm especially curious what the guys will answer. Feel free to elaborate.

Um.. No.. I only *wish* I legs like that!! Even if I did, however, I don't think I would have the guts to wear those FM boots!! I still liked them on her!

Including the size of the package? I'll be the first to admit (though I'm sure I don't speak for everyone) that size *seems* to be appealing until one day you get one that's truly impressive and all you can think when it's knocking on your uterus is *owwww*!!! A nice size is a bonus. HUGE is scary. Small is disappointing - but not if he knows how to use it But seriously.. It's not that important.. I imagine it's like boobies - they're all good in their own way "There is no problem so bad you can't make it worse." - Chris Hadfield « Sors le martinet et flagelle toi indigne contrôleuse de gestion. » - my boss

If a guy can't make me laugh, he's a goner! No joke! Agree 100%.. Sense of humour is a must - it's just not always the sort of thing you notice straight away.

I don't deliberately bring up the topic, although on rare occasions it does come up. When people ask, they tend to say stuff like "Oh yeah, I did a tandem once - how many times have you jumped? Then I explain that I have 300 or so jumps, but that's actually not a lot when you consider that some people do it as a career and have about 10,000 jumps. Usually that's enough to satisfy them and we move on to another topic. I don't feel the need to tell people, just like I don't go around telling everyone a bunch of other stuff that makes me sound like a deviant "There is no problem so bad you can't make it worse." - Chris Hadfield « Sors le martinet et flagelle toi indigne contrôleuse de gestion. » - my boss

Ah ha ha!! I've done that too!! "There is no problem so bad you can't make it worse." - Chris Hadfield « Sors le martinet et flagelle toi indigne contrôleuse de gestion. » - my boss

I noticed that too. I would LIKE to think that weren't true... but I fear it is. Sorry - it was the best example I could think of that would depict a similar circumstance.

A couple of women have already said that money can be a really nice bonus, but it shouldn't be the basis for a relationship. Of *course* a man with money is inherently appealing.. But for me, it's not because he *has* money, it's more to do with the fact that he is hard-working, successful, ambitious and charismatic. If he's rich because he's all of the above, it's very sexy - it's a sign that he's a good provider. And if it's ever going to work, he would have to also be emotionally dependable and giving as well. In the above scenario, money is the bonus that comes from all the qualities that make a great partner - it's a massive turn on. If, on the other hand, money was inherited or it's all he's interested in, or it's due to lying, cheating, dishonesty, etc., it's NOT appealing. ESPECIALLY if money is the only thing he has to snare women in. If the man has no charisma or personality to speak of, money is NOT attractive in the slightest. Let's turn this on it's head for a moment.. You're a guy, and you meet this girl with an AMAZING personality.. Isn't it a GREAT bonus if she's also drop-dead gorgeous?? Same with men who have money.. It *is* a bonus, but I wouldn't go out with a jerk just because he spent loads of money on me.

Sounds to me like the perfect date!! In what way would you be like that guy?? By the way, the first place my ex took me was McDonalds & I paid!! At the time, he was jobless, broke, and temporarily living with his parents on the other side of the ocean from me.. But you know what? He was the funniest, most charismatic, kindest person I've ever met. He totally swept me off my feet and never spent a penny on me. We ended up being together for 5 years and I still love him to pieces. (Of course, it didn't hurt that he's sexy as hell and has a British accent!! ) "There is no problem so bad you can't make it worse." - Chris Hadfield « Sors le martinet et flagelle toi indigne contrôleuse de gestion. » - my boss

Can you describe what it felt like?? It looks incredibly unpleasant.. "There is no problem so bad you can't make it worse." - Chris Hadfield « Sors le martinet et flagelle toi indigne contrôleuse de gestion. » - my boss

Yeah, maybe I should just look at it as being that simple.. I just found it offensive on so many levels.. "There is no problem so bad you can't make it worse." - Chris Hadfield « Sors le martinet et flagelle toi indigne contrôleuse de gestion. » - my boss

I like so many words when said with a posh British accent.. Boobies Naughty Not-at-all (ok, not technically one word!) poopie-head Edit to add: "water" "There is no problem so bad you can't make it worse." - Chris Hadfield « Sors le martinet et flagelle toi indigne contrôleuse de gestion. » - my boss
