I’m in love with her. She feels the same way. We’ve been together for 3 months. By August, I’ll need somewhere to live. We’re talking about getting an apartment together. Do you think that this stupid/too soon? I can’t help thinking of forever with her.
yes. this is stupid and too soon.
in general, living with your significant other is really a thing you shouldn’t do until/unless you have to.
if you are together forever then there will be plenty of time in your future to fight about dishes and think ‘when she’s gone, i miss her more’ and think 'here i am right before bed doing my 'me’ things.’ you will live together in the future and it will be beautiful and worth the wait.
you know how sometimes when you’re going to meet her you maybe spend a little bit too much time picking out a shirt to look like you haven’t really spent any time picking out a shirt but it happens to be a shirt she really likes? you can’t do that when you live together.
she can see all your shirts, is what i’m saying. and they all look better on the floor.

Do you prefer waxed or unwaxed?
i feel like this is a question about vaginas. is it. or is it like “wax on, wax off” which is a saying that popped into my head except that I don’t know why. is that about a car or something. don’t people wax cars or surfboards. if you’re talking about beeswax, well, I"m semi-allergic to bees. Not in that “i need a fanny pack with my bee-protectant emergency solution in it” way, but in the like ‘when a bee bites my wrist, it swells two times bigger than even my hand and i have big hands.“ but i do like honey although it gets messy. i like a kind of tea that’s like one chai tea teabag, one tazo refresh teabag, hot water obvs, milk/cream, and honey. it’s really good. in general i think waxing is better because razors give you razorburn, but in the recession sometimes one must suck it up and razor away. but if you’re asking me about vaginas, and again – i don’t know if i am just being like weird, or one-track minded or something – but if that’s what you’re asking, i prefer that everyone keep most of what they’ve got there. if you know what i mean. but why would you ask me that. that’s such a weird question. who cares what i prefer. this must be about car wax. but listen. i don’t have a fucking car!
do you think there is something to be said for making a clean break…. deleting all traces of history you’d rather not remember? no looking back? or is there danger in burning bridges? the internet makes it weird. one click, gone forever. sometimes.
i think there are lots of things to be said for making a clean break. we were never meant to have history so meticulously recorded as it is now. not being comfortable with that is very retro/progressive.
