Polls: Relationships

Inspired by a question I saw yesterday. If you were in a relationship that had lasted 6 months or more and your partner was moving 10-12 hours away by car or bus/train what would you do? Would you try to go with them, break up, or enter a long distance relationship?

How do you sleep in bed with your partner, could this indicate problems in your relationship?

Do you sleep in separate beds or rooms, though this could be a solution rather than a reflection on the relationship.

Perhaps you kiss and cuddle in the same bed, before falling asleep in your own bed.

Which way have you chosen to sleep with your partner?

Have you ever had this or want one?

That is... someone you talk to and gain support emotional, encouragement to stay focused on what is important.

The value of this is for people whom don't stay focused on goals, or need extra support and encouragement and ideas to move forward, they can tap others expertise or just encouragement.

Multiple people could do this as well.

Is this something you are interested in either same sex, or co-ed?

Would a 27 year old man really be able to meet the needs of a 31 or 32 year old woman or is there too much of a gap?

If she doesn’t have a job while the man does, yes. That would be her contribution to the family unit.

If both she and the man both have jobs outside of the house, they should do the housework equally.

FULL-TIME WIFE I get up at 6am to make my hubby breakfast & clean, if women looked after their men like me they wouldn’t get divorced - www.the-sun.com/.../

That is half the bill of anything! Car, house, restaurants, drinks, vacations, etc.

For this, i want both sides to be brutally honest, so I will, too. I'm an ex alcoholic who had significant emotional issues for years that was caused by me having a bad, negative attitude. That out of the way, I wonder where the disconnect occurrs with men not sharing their emotions with women. Such as what I just did, a hardship of addiction caused by my own bad, irresponsible decisions, fault of nobody except myself, but this is vulnerability to let it go. Maybe one of you guys lost someone you cared about, someone moved away and you miss them, you feel stuck, you want to travel, and you think nobody cares about your happiness, so you suck it up and keep working. Men, is this what you're doing? Are you keeping everything that hurts you inside because you think nobody cares and will see you as weak? Ladies, if a man is doing this, perhaps a man you love is keeping his tears in, should he continue? Would you care if he sat down and told you? Guys, if you're hiding, press "yes". Ladies, if you think men, honest to God, would you see a man as less if he told you about his plight? If you answer yes, then hit "yes", to say men should keep these emotions to themselves

Does a partner need to be interesting?

Should they be really be good at something, or they can be just average, as long as they're emphatic and listen?
