Here's a fun one

Since we have flamefests about ourselves, how about we all share the most flameworthy thing about our SO's? Let's get down and dirty! It's now or never!

I think the most flameworthy thing about J is that he stayed with his ex and never strayed for 13 freaking years while she cheated on him left and right. While I commend him for his committment to his family, I think he was just downright dumb for doing it.

But on the plus side...I trust that he won't cheat on me and that he'll go pretty far to honor his relationship commitments. And that had he left her earlier, we wouldn't have met.

Your turn!

Re: Here's a fun one

  • Oh come on now CE...you can do better than that.  The fact that he didnt bring himself down to his ex-wife's level is not flameworthy.   Does he leave the toilet seat up or smell his clothes to see if he should wear them or not?

    H folds the towels wrong.  the way he folds them they don't fit properly in the cabinets and the door is always a bit ajar.  THE NERVE!  Wink

  • I don't really know J well enough to have anything too flameworthy on him.  Don't they say people put their best foot forward for at least the first few months?

    I do know he snores.

    I think he takes on A LOT in life and always has.  He was the eldest and his dad wasn't around very much so I think that's where that stems from.  Plus he's in the military so he has this stoic demeanor about him.  He's probably too serious at times.

    I practically had to THROW myself at him the first time we slept together but I don't think that's flameworthy either.  He was waiting for my cue because he didn't want to overstep boundaries.

    He says "liberry" instead of "library" but I think that's a southern thing.

    He's a tea snob.

    He's a wine snob if he's the one picking out the bottle.

    He wears his t-shirts too tight sometimes Stick out tongue

  • Ha!  We all know what's most flameworthy about it.  At least those of us that read it before you DD'ed it
  • Here is a funny one:  The first time H tried to kiss me, he forgot he was wearing a hat and pecked me with the bill.  He got so embarrassed he just went in for a hug and left. Stick out tongue

    LOL Leaving the seat up is flameworthy? Well damn, there's another one! Stick out tongue

    He does smoke on rare occasions, which I hate, but isn't really flameworthy, I don't think. Just a pet peeve of mine.

    My boyfriend, T, was with his ex-wife for 15 years (dated for 9, married for 6), and she was the exact same way. Also, while T does not want kids, he had unprotected sex with her almost the entire time they were married. He's lucky they didn't even have a scare!

    It's just me and my Marlon now... and I LOVE it that way!

    I'm glad someone remembers this!

    You can remember it all you want. I don't see it as flameworthy that a 12-16 year old girl wants to have her own room in a half-million dollar house where she can keep her Great Dane with 2 retired grandparents in the best school district in town instead of living in a 1 bedroom apartment with her single dad where she can't have her dog or do any of her school activities because her dad has had to cut his hours to be at home with her at night and can't afford both an apartment in her school district AND all of the activities she wants to do.

    But, of course, two parents, 2 grandparents, and a therapist all agreeing with the teenager means nothing when people of The Nest think it's akin to child abuse Huh? I'm done discussing this.

  • I honestly believe (though neither of them have ever admitted it) that F and his XW had an arrangement whereby she'd get a baby, and he'd get a green card. I don't think it was a formal arrangement or anything, but I do think if they were both really honest they'd admit that their marriage was awfully convenient for the both of them. 
    someecards.com - North Carolina: Where you can marry your cousin. Just not your gay cousin.
  • FF's XW is extremely materialistic, and during the last stages of their divorce, she kept saying she wanted more "stuff". They had "final" papers signed 3 different times because she wanted more stuff and it had to be written into the papers...like a single piece of china or the box of cleaning supplies for the boat she got in the divorce. One of the items was the Kitchenaid stand mixer. FF was beyond fed up at this point with his XW being so petty and delaying the divorce, so he put water in the motor of the mixer and gave it back to her.

    Before you think that's too horrible of him...he just recently went to look for the cushions to his patio set and realized they're gone. (They were in one of those outdoor storage bins) He has no idea how long they've been "missing" but is willing to bet where we could find them.......

    I actually find this rather funny. She sounds ridiculous.

  • I'm not with anyone right now, but the guy I was in a relationship with last wanted to purpose after only 4 months of dating. Moved to quickly that one. Two months after I dumped him he announced he's in a new relationship via FB. I learned he moved way to quick and never gave himself time to get over anything.

    I agree, it's pretty damn funny.  Spending thousands of dollars in attorneys fees to argue over something that costs a couple hundred dollars is dumb.
