Single, Involved, Married(LTR)?? Just wondering now what everyone's status is at the moment?? Me??? Single and oh so alone . Ill just keep pretending that im too busy with "work" to be involved in a relationship right now. Queue Celine Dion's "All By Myself".......[|)] Married = Long Term Relationship
I'm serially single. Personally I love it. I've 4 friends that take up an unhealthy amount of my time and that combined with work and my need to be a geek frequently, doesn't leave alot of time for a man. Wouldn't mind one but I don't like settling for anything less than my impossible standards would allow
I'm in a LTR, not far off 3 years now! O maybe a mod might add a little poll on the top. I love stats
Ditto......what do you(Poll setter) mean by married?.....LTR?...straight married but gay? involved?.......does that mean new couples?just starting out or LTR for gay people.... .... I'm confused.....I'm not single......but not married but in a relationship thats nearly 7 yrs old.......am I involved?
I'm in a nearly-3-year relationship (not the same one as Yop ). We cohabit (or is it cohabitate ) and I very often have my dinner served to me on the table when I get home from "work" for which I do the clean up. Our respective parents visit putting us under occasional pressure. We are thinking about getting a gold fish. We bitch about our polish neighbours and the fact that they use our recycling bin. One Friday night we watched the late late show. We have a "side of the bed" (the borders of which we regularly breach). People send us Christmas cards (at Christmas like) to both of us. Ma beau occasionally refers to himself as The Doctor's Wife when trying to impress in social occasions. We miss each other terribly when we are apart for a night. I thinks we are married (in everything bar name). It's brilliant though! I thoroughly recommend it!
For the past 10 days i've been single, following 4 months with someone. I know 4 months isnt that long, but i'm still trying to get used to being single again! Its not easy!
I'm single.......as usual. I'm told I'm too fussy. Well why the hell not. Anyone can score at anytime. I want more. More I tell you! More!
I'm married & I mean in the real sense. Yeah I AM bi & despite the occasional bitching about bi's I've heard in the past saying that we're in denial, well sure, many are, I'm not, I swing both ways, sometimes I prefer sausage to taco, other times taco to sausage, but BOTH always a place for me so there. Oh & I'd like to add that I am out about my sexuality to my family, wife & to a discreet sense her family. Also all my friends know. Although someone did get mixed up a few months back & thought she was lebanese & I was gay & we both had other side relationships going on. That wasn't true.
I'm in a stable relationship with my fella for 2 years now, we're engaged and everything just waiting for the law to be created for legal rights Is that mean to that gay relationships mean less than hetero ones just because we can't avail of a civil ceremony (yet) or a church one (maybe never)?
I think what bi4fship meant by 'married in the real sense' is that he is legally married in this country which is recognised by both state and church, as opposed to the term 'married' being used to define a long-term gay relationship which has been used in this thread (i'm not saying there's anything wrong with that). I've no doubt he didnt mean to denigrate gay relationships.
The gay are so confrontational at times, just looking for a fight! Lol! Although i suppose i can't comment, i'm often the same. I really don't think it was meant in an offensive way!
We're together seven years and like the lovely Little Timmy and the Doctor's Wife (or Cork's gay power couple as I like to call 'em), we live together, and have a relationship I would consider akin to that of a "married" couple. I've chosen married. We kiss each other goodbye when we leave for work in the morning and miss each other terribly if we're apart. (Lady Chatelaine's Lover sleeps on the couch when we're apart overnight - I can't say the same, I like my comfort ) It's a wonderful relationship that's not been without its ups and downs but like everything else in life, if it's worth having its worth fighting for.
[@};-] a rose for you, because breaking up is never easy (regardless of how long you've been together)...
Go raibh mile maith agat chatelaine . And while i decided on the break (no i'm not a bastard!) it took every ounce of courage in me to actually come out with the words. I felt so shit for days afterwards. I also felt kinda lost. Anyway, after 10 days, i'm getting back on my feet. I've dusted myself down and ordered another pint! Onwards we struggle!
