How do you know they are a keeper?

[Noor]

When they change their soaps, detergents and foods as soon as they know this could be a problem for you.

I was highly shocked about a little while ago when someone on a mast cell board reported that her long time husband had started using AXE hair products throwing her into anaphylactic shock. She was actually asking how to co-exist with her households' use of dangerous for her products. The answer is you can't.

Anyway, beyond the "fantastic in bed" usually stuff, how do you know?

I'm not sure when "comfortable" became a bad word for relationships, but for me the best fit is one that is just that, comfortable.

It means we can be ourselves, relax our guard and trust that you each have the others best interest and happiness in mind with all things.

Easy. The first time he/she/Caitlyn puts you before Ma or Dad or the job, and it fuggin matters. It cant be some bull shit issue, it must be fuggin important.

 

[parodyluvr75]

She needs a fire hose and a shock collar for him. There's no other way.

Naah, youre fuggin clueless per usual. Its not about comfort, its about loyalty to you and your welfare. He'll kill his Ma for you if she ever makes you sigh or roll your eyes.

I was thinking a shock cock ring, but ok.

I agree, it takes a bit of time before you are at that "comfortable" stage.

Easy. The first time he/she/Caitlyn puts you before Ma or Dad or the job, and it fuggin matters. It cant be some bull shit issue, it must be fuggin important.

Or when they put you first over whatever they really want to be doing at the time when it's important.

Devil woman!

I think you are both basically saying the same thing.

Of course it is, you poor dear old man.

 

[Lancecastor]

her long time husband had started using AXE hair products

She should start looking for the very young woman he's banging.

Another reason for the firehose and shock collar.

That stuff smells awful, it's very strong. It's worse than old spice and I never thought that was possible.

 

[Hypoxia]

They're a keeper when they keep YOU despite your terrible asinine fuckups.

 

[Killswitch1]

If she's cool with me farting in bed and comes back with a few toots of her own then it's real.

 

[spacekowboy]

The important things. Blow job frequency and breast size.

 

[BiTodd]

I don't give enough blow jobs.....

 

[Recidiva]

They're willing to do things that don't fit a stereotypical image - it could be something like crying at a sad movie without apologizing, because tears are fine. Not adhering to a status system - will speak truth to power and not be rude to wait staff.

Funny.

Intelligent.

Loyal.

For me the moment I knew I was set on keeping was when I had the thought that it was a lot of fun and things are going great...and what happened if he was sick and I wasn't there with him? The idea broke my heart. Needed to be there. Not just "in health" but "in sickness." I wanted the right to be there.

When something happens and they're the first person you want to tell, the first person that jumps to mind.

 

[JAMESBJOHNSON]

I think you are both basically saying the same thing.

But my version has coherence and cohesion and elegance.

 

[dolf]

he's a keeper, but i'm not the one to keep him.
he needs someone younger and less tangled,
but obviously he hasn't figured that one out. yet.

he is a keeper because... I feel completely safe with him. always. he is no gentleman, all rough around the edges, has chosen to opt out of many basic manners. but he is concerned when he should be, protective when he needs to be, understanding when he's called upon to be. secrets are safe with him. and he understands the value of fun, is happy to move at someone else's pace. he cooks. and makes a kickarse cocktail. and, of course, he is just so fucking pretty.

someone really should keep him. silly girls.

 

[bronzeage]

The key to a good relationship is finding someone who can put up with your shit.

I did that...now excuse me. I gotta go grab a quick beer and then go cook dinner cause she is going to be late at yoga tonight

 

[Conager]

The pith helmet, safari pockets and key to the lion's cage are sure signs of a keeper.

Why are you not the keeper? Maybe you are just what he needs? Maybe he is just what you need?
