Not having to wake up in the middle of the night to say ''TURN ON YOUR SIDE''

I agree with this!!!! Before FI I used to wake up only once or twice during the night now I have days where I feel like a virtual zombie from his snoring keeping me up.

Sometimes it gets so bad I go and sleep in our guest room - a girl needs her beauty sleep afterall, right?

1) The new-ness when you first meet someone & the excitement & flirtations that follow the new-ness.
2) Making important decisions without having to consult with anyone but me, myself, & I.

To be honest, nothing at all. BF is the first guy that I''ve ever been able to be MYSELF with... I can be dancing around acting like a fool or doing any other ridiculous thing and he''d be right there by my side either laughing with me about it or doing it along with me. We are very much alike personality wise and I love it!

Honestly, nothing! ha!

We don''t live together, so I don''t miss this yet, but I like to get the GIRLIEST smelling dish detergent, laundry detergents and fabric softeners! Lavenders and Vanillas and berries and pretty florals... and I somehow suspect that this is not going to fly with SO... I mean, even my sister complains about it...

Not the end of the world, but I would miss it...

Oh goodness. Definitely the cereal for dinner thing! I do that a ton, and BF gives me the same look every time. Of course, he''s eating a salad. Heck with that.

I''d say I miss sleeping in the middle of the bed, but it''d be a lie. I do that anyways, and BF wakes up in the middle of the night and decides it''s not worth making a fuss and risking me not having a good night''s sleep, so he gets off of the bed and sleeps on the floor. I''m sure that will stop when both of us are working, but for now I''m enjoying it.

I miss watching silly, frivolous shows. I miss organizing my fridge however I want.
I miss the excitement of the first dates/year. The rollercoaster is scary, but it''s exciting and fun, too. And the thrill of possibility is amazing!

I definitely wouldn''t want to give up BF for that, but there are things I miss occasionally.

 

[LtlFirecracker]

1) Eating whatever I want for dinner
2) Staying up as late as I want when I go out (BF not a night person)
3) TLC and HGTV
4) Not having to watch the speed channel (BF dosn''t have cable so comes here to watch auto races)

5) Going out with the girls and having a fun night out on the town

However, I like being in a relationship more than I like being single. I have no problem trading this stuff.

Attention Smurfy & Lara PIZZA TOPPING CRISIS SOLUTION ALERT!!!!


I have never ordered pizza from a pizza place in America that was not happy to do a half and half. All you do is say: ''I''d like a large pizza, half with peppers, half with mushrooms.''


Try it. It works. After all, it costs them exactly 10 seconds of extra work and no extra product. Sometimes they charge you, like, 50 cents for the privilege.


Problem solved.

Just found this IG.
I''ll take the ''vegetarian with pineapple anchovies'' half!!

we''ve both kind of compromised. If we are at my house, we both love the same pizza from a local place, so no problems. If we are at his house, he has given up the hawaiian (bleech!) and I have accepted tomato slices, mushrooms, and/or white sauce. I don''t eat pork or beef, so he has given up those options too.

We get:
garlic chicken, spinach and pesto w/ red sauce on whole wheat (my house)
or chicken, tomato slices (sometimes mushrooms) and white sauce (his house)

It works for us

Shoot, now I want pizza....
