Yes. My SO has done it many times when I’ve handed it to him. No protests. It doesn’t take away from his masculinity in any way. It makes me laugh a little and it’s just adorable. I’ve dug through his wallet. He’s dug through mine to help me find stuff. He’s carried my cards and keys when I...

I saw this yesterday. The author who wrote "I kissed dating goodbye" now disagrees with its view and asked the publisher to discontinue its publication. Quoting from wikipedia [which has references]...

Perfection? That sounds boring. I like to keep mine sweet and spicy ;)

Great thread, @seoulsearch I haven't read any Christian dating book but I have read ones on others. I tried to read "Boundaries in Dating" by Cloud & Townsend but I never completed it. The book that I read and really appreciated is "Nonviolent Communication" by Marshall Rosenberg. It's not a...

Wow, Streams is so... dead. And wanted to ask - is Galatea around? She was pretty awesome - smart, witty and a delightful writer. PS - of course most members have had their share of controversy ... so not everyone would like the same subset of people. We all have our favs on whose posts we...

I just went and got myself a Starbucks nitro cold brew. It looks like a beer and it's a hot day. Yes, please :)

Last night, I slept in bed with wet hair. Everyone says its a bad idea but eh, sometimes I am just too tired. But after this, I see the point. I put my hair in a microfiber turban. I have long hair, up to my waist. I also have bangs or fringe, whatever you like to call it. In the morning, when...

To add: My parents support me in my relationship :). Last weekend my SO and I had dinner with my father. I am meeting his parents in a month. Both our sets of parents don't live near us. I do have a date this evening. We will be going to our favorite taco place/pub to celebrate his promotion at...

Given how complicated, emotionally complex and the sheer effort a relationship can demand, I would not support a teenager in a relationship. I don't think I would have gotten through my education if I was dating at that time. Currently, with my SO and I (we are the same age and not teenagers)...

Probably dozens - but I'd go with "Captain of my own ship" & "This world is but a canvas to our imagination"

I have learnt that you don't have to always go to special places or do grand gestures to be romantic. One of the sweetest things, among many, that my SO did for me was when I fell down the stairs at work. Ironically we were "text-fighting" and at that moment, I slipped and used my hand to...

Please stop focusing on things like that! If you are interested in finding a husband, please go ahead and date but don't get caught up with your virginity as if you need to lose it by a certain age. Stick to your values and you don't have to feel ashamed of it. There's nothing wrong with being...

Anything that I make myself! :) Recently I baked a tres leche cake and every bite of the cake brought so much joy. Coffee and almond croissants for breakfast are the best! I do love the Mac and Cheese my SO makes. I used to think they were bland and could never understand why it was such a...

To an extent... I only want to change the wardrobe :p ! My boyfriend and I have slightly different tastes in fashion. He tends to dress slightly more formal than me and looks a tad older than me.We are the same age though he is actually younger than me by a few months. When we first started...

In all honesty, I think the reason most people don't wait before marriage is because the structure of society and the way things are done now is much different than Biblical times, especially in western cultures. There was no idea of dating or having a relationship such as boyfriend/girlfriend...
