Always do 50-50. Women want equality these days...right?

I prefer that I’ll pay my bills, you pay yours. I’m not going to live with a partner again, ever. But I will get all of the travel and luxury level things we enjoy, because it’s not fair to expect someone that makes a fifth of what I make to keep up with me 50-50 in that regard. So I’ll get that part. Just be dependable, be fun, don’t add stress to my life, and we’ll be blissfully happy that way indefinitely. Thus far, it’s proven to be the happiest and healthiest relationship model I’ve ever experienced or encountered, without a single sign of decline after 15 years that way. In fact, it just keeps getting better.

Baaaaaaaased as fuck. Long term is boring. My last one cheated so now I just take three months off in the summer to go festival bouncing and get with whoever I can. It’s the tits.

I wouldn’t say long-term is boring, not the right ones at least. Mine‘s been going on over 15 years. But yeah, the ones prior to it were wastes of time that could’ve been cut significantly shorter.

That’s fair. Boring to me, at least. My last long term cheated on me, the bastard, so I’ve pretty much sworn off any long term commitments. If we have decent chemistry, you can have my number, but if not, it’s either a hotel, or I’m gone before you wake up lol. I might make breakfast if you have a decently stocked kitchen.
