Women, what do you expect from a boyfriend that you don't expect from a girl who's a friend? What goals do men fill that female friends don't besides s♡x?
I... don't know actually. I guess things for me go from acquaintance to friend to relationship, and in a relationship I'd expect all the things I'd expect from a friend, but more/better?
Oh, and if we're living together, you're cleaning up your own mess.
What friends do in their own homes is not my business, and usually if friends come over, they are guests.... Apparently guests aren't expected to help cleaning up :P Most of my friends do though!
I expect two way trust and some brutal honesty being possible both ways from a partner. I'm ok to keep a relation with friend with more small talk and less adjustment
If they leave at the end of a fun night, they help put dishes in the dishwasher, food in containers, and wipe down the tables. All that's left for me is to vacuum (and mop, if things have really gotten dirty) the next day.
@Tinkeringbell ngl the thing i most want is communication - i'm a great believer that issues become a lot worse than they need to be if they get bottled up
dull is fine until you're stuck with being on call 40 work hours a week but you only have to work half of that... yet i can't leave my desk in case i am needed
@AlexRobinson Sounds like my life behind the cash register at times. No clients means nothing to do, and the boss would switch between 'go clean something' and 'stay at the register'. I just ended up bringing a tablet/phone to entertain myself during downtime.
yeah i've watched an ungodly amount of netflix over the past 3 months, i'd love to do more engaging things but being prepared to drop everything doesn't really allow that
I ended up having 5-6 of those games where you can do a task, then have to wait a few minutes/hours anyways. Things like hay day, empire 4 kingdoms....
i used to do them a few years back because there were always a handful of newspapers kicking about our sixth form... but only got back into it recently because i found a good app that has thousands of them
i am entirely convinced they're haunted - my old laptop's external keyboard broke... then the built in keyboard broke too so i got a second external keyboard which broke after a few weeks
I remember one time, my boss spilled his soft drink on his keyboard. Then he found it wasn't working right, so he got a new one from IT. But the new one was also broken. And then I discovered/pointed out that... He had scroll lock on.
@Mithical And yes, interacting with people in general requires the same tolerance but to a much lesser extent ;) I guess the only situation that may require a higher tolerance than partnerships is working in customer service ;)
@Sarov i mean, most people seem to do that given current divorce rates :P
