What is (or what do you anticipate) the most difficult part of having your S.O.?

[Saulbadguy]

Sleeping in the same bed. For some reason, I can't sleep comfortably when she sleeps with me (only on the weekends). I toss and turn all night.

i'm with ya

She wants children, but I'd rather not.

Some people won't like this answer because it's kinda cheesy, but my life has improved in a hundred ways since I met my SO, and I can honestly say that she makes my life and our relationship so easy. I have ZERO complaints. none, nada.

sometimes when i'm sitting on my ass for extended periods of time she will remind me a few times to do something (i guess it's technically nagging) - that can sometimes be a teeny tiny bit difficult for both of us. oh and i don't listen sometimes, so i'm sure that bugs the crap out of her.

For me, I think the hardest thing will be recognising that I can't be with them every time I have spare time.

My anticipations are largely the same...

Though, honestly, the more comfortable I become in an environment, the less introverted and co-dependant I become (or at least that's the way I've been previously)... so I think that for me & any future partner, I'd have more problems initially with this than in the "long run" (that is, if the relatinship lasted a long time, which is obviously my hope...)

Getting rid of the body.

 

[ggnl]

Finding the right balance of time. Together, apart, with my friends, with her friends, etc.

Right or wrong, but I get the feeling that if we pry at that story a bit, a little more will come out...

ah there's always more to every story isn't there. but in the end i'm one happy, lucky fscker.

About the person: the inability of me to read her mind and the constant need that she has for attention.

 

[PingSpike]

I don't feel like I get enough "alone" time sometimes. But thats really an issue with there not being enough time in the day more than an issue with her.

 

[FoBoT]

matching motivation

i think she has low self-esteem and this is displayed as low motivation

i work extra hard to get ahead and make money for the family

when i get home after 10-12 hour day at work and it appears that the day was spent playing video games/watching movies, etc , etc, then my motivation can drop. i feel like if i am going to work hard, so should she

 

[Bumrush99]

She is a neat freak.. I'm fairly messy and disorganized.

I'm more free spirited and like to do things without much thought or organization, while she prefers having solid plans/schedules.

Food: I love eating out at fine resteraunts, she can eat salad 7 days a week

 

[SouthPaW1227]

The most difficult part of our relationship of nearly 4 years:

Where to eat. We will get pissed off at each other NOT b/c we disagree, but b/c nobody can decide where to eat. We always work it out and eat happy, though.

Honestly if that is as bad as it gets, we're straight.

 

[woowoo]

Keeping her out of my stash....

I find the literal interpretation to be a better way to explain Jesus' teachings because the metaphorical leaves too much variation in the word. Most metaphorical believers find ways to justify their own sinful behaviors through the word of God.
