Hopefully there's a middle ground there somewhere.

Yeah.... There's probably a middle ground somewhere. .

deal...

Deal breaker: in RL and Lit ... men who dwell on something for days and can't let it go. If you're having a bad day and you want me to cheer you up, say so and I will. Bad day and you want to stew about it for a while? Again, say so and I'll give you space. If you had a bad day earlier this week and you're still being an ass, we are going to have problems. I'm a "shake that shit off and move on" kind of person.

Deal breakers. There are things in relationships that for whatever the reason can't be overcome. Many times they can be identified early on and the relationship doesn't go too far. Other times , that "thing" never presents itself. What's your deal breaker, that thing that if it came up, you'd know the relationship is doomed? This can be in RL or Lit.

RL - chewing with your mouth open. I have no want to see you processing your food
Lit - of it would progress to voice, a super high, squeaky, babyish type of voice. Just doesn't work for me.

So, I was thinking about this one. I don't have any single deal-breakers, but rather a set of behaviors that will end it for me. I was thinking about the last two or three relationships I had that I ended. One ended because she became insanely possessive - so, uh, crazy would be a deal breaker. One ended because she moved to Texas. (LOL - Texas itself is not a deal breaker, but distance can be.) The other ended because she could not escape her family and I would not let myself be drawn into their pointless drama and bad conduct. In general, I think crazy and pulling me into a negative environment are my deal-breakers.

I would have to say RL it is when they try to make me change.... I don't have a problem compromising on some things, but don't try to change my looks the the person I truely am! Also, don't put me last on the list! On Lit, oh wait, I don't have any Lit relationships, just friendships.

So let's go opposite the Booty call. Are you a believer of holding off of sex so that it will be hotter the next time? Me, I'm a let's not wait until tomorrow kind of guy but for some I think the hold off approach works.

Nope, no holding off.

Errrm no...
Now, if we're talking about teasing while playing...holding off for hours with touches and teases...yes!!!

no, in a relationship, I believe you should not hold off. you chose to be there so take care of things when the needs arise. now a little teasing, flirting and playing along the way leads to a much more fulfilling time.

deal breakers - - in rl - smoking - drunkenness - disrespect
on lit - the nonsense pms . . .

 

[ydahecnot]

So sending a PM that read shtchginb?)tvyb would be a deal-breaker?

Good morning Litiquette-izans,

Can happiness be a conscious decision? Or is happiness something that we can't really control? And I'm not talking about being positive and seeing the glass half full. Can you will yourself to happiness?

You have about 80% control on your own happiness, by your life decisions, frame of mind, etc.
The other 20% comes from outside your control.

I agree with this.

I am able to find the silver lining in most situations.
There are times where I have to shake myself out of a funk but I am able to.
I am a very happy person. ..I'm lucky. There's many that aren't.

No, I don't believe you can, if by "happy" you are referring to "not depressed." If it is possible, it's much harder to do than just donning your best "Stuart Smalley" and mushing forward. Positive reinforcement ( whether from within or outside sources) is only part of the process.

If by "happy" you mean "satisfied".. That is much more in your own control. There comes a point, I think, that if you are constantly setting standards for yourself you can't reach and complaining about it. .then you're just being bitchy. In that case, it's about pulling up your bootstraps and working toward your goals instead of sitting around and complaining about nothing getting done.

Did I interpret your question correctly?

 

[ChainedUp]

Happiness can't be defined by someone else. Only you know what it is for you.
