Single vs Relationship - Comments

All of that makes sense. I mean, I have this thing with this guy. We like each other, have been on dates, have cuddled and kissed, but we're not rushing into the actual relationship part (bad past experiences). What I do with him is what I'd do with someone I'm involved with. I think it's all about the labels you want to place.

Oh, and holding doors open is quite nice, too. I didn't think males did that anymore.

I've had friends who changed because of who they were with, or they spent all their time with the guy and I never saw them.

I know, I just find it hilarious how they pull that on ya.

Oh no, I was referring to me and the guy I'm seeing I feel like he'd pull that on me (jokingly) if I asked him to carry something for me. My friends never hold my stuff because and I quote, "Alex you're always going on about being an independent black woman so surely you can carry your own shit."

Idk, my best friend's a feminist and no guy, friend or otherwise, has refused to hold her stuff because of that tidbit.

@ kitsch
YES.
Well. Not true in my case. But if you're with someone who makes you do it yourself because they know you prattle on about independence and feminism and all that then there's no chance

And if you're with someone, they can carry your stuff. Very important.
