Jj66 Posted March 9, 2017 Posted March 9, 2017 People write so much about.their problems, thought I would share something that isnt a problem. I had lost my glasses for awhile. Today I was straightening up since my gf is cooking at my place tomorrow. I found them on her side of the bed under the pillow this morning. I texted her just before lunch to let her know. She texted back "I must have hid them there after you checked FB during my orgasm ;-)" I busted out laughing and everybody near my office turns to see what's going on. Yet one more reason I love my gf. She has a sense of humor that can get me fired. 2
Telemachus Posted March 9, 2017 Posted March 9, 2017 Appreciating each other's sense of humor is one of the desirable characteristics that both men and women put near the tops of their lists for relationship partners. I think that only honesty/trust and confidence score higher. Congratulations on having someone in your life who gets you and whom you get. It is the spice of life.
preraph Posted March 9, 2017 Posted March 9, 2017 Hahaha! I love it. Wittiness is very sexy. Buffoonery, not so much.
carnelian Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 Yeah sure. If sense of humor was that important, then comedians and professional comics would be happily married and in demand by women everywhere--and men. Would you rather have a partner with much money and good looks or one who is very funny? I have discovered that joke telling is often not cool and does not count. The other may be put off by you if she doesn't like the jokes. Puns especially. 1
preraph Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 ^ I agree. Joke telling just gets old and someone trying to act like a juvenile to make you laugh is pathetic. But intelligent humor and wit and just being entertaining is very attractive. 2
Gaeta Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 Life is hard enough at it is we must have humor at home. I wouldn't be able to be with a man with no sense of humor. Actually I dated a man once who could not crack a smile at my jokes. Every date with him was like attending a funeral. No need to say it lasted no more than a couple of months.
GorillaTheater Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 Would you rather have a partner with much money and good looks or one who is very funny? My wife apparently opted for the latter. 4
Author Jj66 Posted March 10, 2017 Author Posted March 10, 2017 Would you rather have a partner with much money and good looks or one who is very funny? Why not all three? I want a partner who is effing hot. I want a woman who is kind, intelligent, attractive, warm, thoughtful, understanding, patient, loving, giving, nurturing, resourceful, hard-working, gracious, mirthful, adventurous, tolerant, forgiving, low-maintenance, and so many other good things that are hard to put into words. I want her smile to be radiant, her laughter to be music, and her movements poetry to my senses. And those are just her bad qualities. Oh, and she has to laugh at my jokes. That last part cannot be rated highly enough! 1
thefooloftheyear Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 I can be funny at times, but it's important not to be a clown...I know a few of those....both men and women... TFY 1
mikeylo Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 Sense of humor is important but its not something to base a relationship on.Its just a small part of the entire equation.
RecentChange Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 A sense of humor is very important to me. I love to laugh, smile and have fun. My husband constantly cracks me up, and I make him laugh as well. I don't even remember what it was about but last night I had him crying from laughing so hard. We don't "tell jokes" but both of us have a healthy sense of humor. An acquaintance recently said "you're so funny and always smiling, your husband is lucky! You must make him laugh all the time" I said no, he's the funny one! He makes me laugh! Honestly? I rather have a partner that I can laugh with than one that was rich. Money can't buy you happiness, and laughter has many benefits. It literally improves your physical and mental well being. 1
Shanex Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 I've been told often I was a rather fun guy, not in the clown sense of the word, but I know how to be witty, and make people feel comfortable. Just not all the time, a crack (A joke, not the crackpipe) is appropriate in certain situations to lighten the mood. You probably learn to be witter and funnier with experience.
Author Jj66 Posted March 10, 2017 Author Posted March 10, 2017 I don't have the reference but there was a study a couple of years ago that showed that funny men are better lovers. Take it for what it's worth.
RecentChange Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 ^^^ I could see that. A sharp sense of humor often requires astute observation. It takes reading your audience and playing off of their feed back. It requires a sense of timing. Basically like sex, it's another form of communication. 1
Mr Scorpio Posted March 10, 2017 Posted March 10, 2017 Humor is paramount as it reflects an ability to think on your feet. I'd much rather be with a partner who I thought was "meh" physically but was on the same wavelength as me humor wise. Life is too short and the world is too messed up to not prioritize laughing at the absurdity of everything. I'm sure some people find me annoying in this regard but there isn't much I can do about it. 1
