GivenUp0083 Posted March 17, 2011 Posted March 17, 2011 Give me a break. People can work out and hold down a full time job EASILY. Don't say that to the millions of unemployed people with college degrees out there I'm sure new college grads seeking work would love to hear some insight on how easy it is as well... What's the unemployment rate now? 8.9%? EASILY is not a word I would use in this economic climate. I know a lot of people who are having a hard time finding work, I was unemployed for 6 months until recently, and many people I know work 12 hour days just to keep the job they have.
Cee Posted March 17, 2011 Posted March 17, 2011 Glad you're posting about this stuff, Tigressa. It's fun to hear about your relationship. I think we both got boyfriends nearly the same week. This early relationship stuff can feel unsettling at times.

I think we both got boyfriends nearly the same week. This early relationship stuff can feel unsettling at times. Yeah, it can be. It's so nice that this is the only thing I'm even slightly worried about. I think that's the unsettling part for me. I replied to your man cave thread but it got lost in the shuffle, I guess.
TaraMaiden Posted March 17, 2011 Posted March 17, 2011 Plenty of short men date - and marry - shorter women..... I think though, that it's money makes them feel tall.... Bernie Ecclestone Tom Cruise Hugh Hefner Dudley Moore Danny DeVito
Eternal Sunshine Posted March 17, 2011 Posted March 17, 2011 Personally, I am the insecure one where I need the man to feel bigger and taller than me. It's not always easy to find since I am 5'9". My ex was 6'5" and while that was a bit too tall for some, I loved that he can lift me up like a feather. Current bf is 6'2" (which is good too). I don't think I would ever be able to date someone shorter than me - I automatically discount them as dating potential. When I was online dating, I would look at the height first and if it's below 5'10" - I don't look any further.
SmileFace Posted March 17, 2011 Posted March 17, 2011 I think it is cute, however I can see why he will feel insecure. I use to always be bigger than guys I have dated (not height wise). I remember an ex tried on a coat of mine and it was big for him. I felt like complete crap but that was when my self esteem wasn't too good. Anyway I am just saying I can see where he is coming from. However, my ex was like swimmer skinny and I cold fit his jeans and sweaters easy -- lol I loved it.
snug.bunny Posted March 18, 2011 Posted March 18, 2011 (edited) It's different if he gave you a shirt to wear (something you can sleep in and keep to be reminded of him ), but trying on his wardrobe? I know you probably think it's just "cute" but he may feel differently. I mean, maybe my thoughts on this are not the norm, but why are you trying on your BF's clothes and asking to borrow them? I would find it a bit strange, if a BF was trying on my clothes and wanting to borrow them.... What if your BF tried on a dress of yours...wouldn't that be weird to you? Not to mention, if a BF tried on my pants and say my pants were too "big" on him, I "may feel" like I am fat or something and he was parading around in my pants thinking "haha her pants are too big for me". Maybe down the road, he won't care, but for now just try to be respectful towards his feelings and respect his space by not wearing his clothes unless he offers them to you to wear.
