Okay Tristan, this is getting a bit weird. My post answers your new question but we were both posting at the same time. I never saw your question but still answered it.

Simon: What if he(Mal) tells you to kill me.
Zoe: (without hesitation) I kill you.

Lysander, Its a thing we do to more firmly establish that you love us.

No offense taken at all, believe me!

Adventurousness does not stick to the kitchen, no. There are areas wherein I am more adventurous than my wife, and vice versa, but I am at a point in my life where I am slowing down, and realizing things I did earlier might very well kill me now. My wife is at a point where she likes trying new things, and hanging out with lots of new people. To explain a little better, there is a ten year difference between the two of us (35 to 25), and I was being all adventurous while she was still in grade school. I am not as willing to try new things as she is (ie skydiving, etc), but neither am I going to hold her back from them. As far as the bedroom, I have always been adventurous, and would still like to be, but age is slowly taking it's toll. I am happy that I was adventurous in the past in this aspect...just wish I could still be...

Holding until you get back, Captain.

Yeah, that is kinda weird, Lysander...sure you aren't kin of mine?

AZHEA, the passing gas is something I try not to do, but sometimes it does happen, and I excuse myself and get embarassed. From a male perspective, though, it shows a level of comfort around you. Ok, not the best way to express it, I agree. This may be one explanation.

Holding until you get back, Captain.

LOL... At first read, I thought this was in response to the passing gas comment... I guess it works both ways.

boy, that's a loaded question if ever i heard one....

let me preface what i'm about to say with this... i like solitude... my wife and i live in the country in a very quiet, peaceful and serine setting - we get coyotes at night (and bullfrogs) and in the day its mostly the wind through the trees and the ocassional train whistle in the distance....

so...(and here is where i get flamed)..why is that some, not all mind you, but some women constantly yammer away with the most pointless dialogue to whomever is in earshot...? ok, before all the ladies take offense...i will admit that many men do the same thing, especially with sports... but what's with this persistant preoccupation with gossip.... ?

yeah, i guess gossip is the thing i that annoys me the most...

please be kind....

Azhea, I understand that it is a way of showing our level of love and devotion, but come on. Sometimes these questions are just looking for fights. I've been with my wife for twelve years and had to spend a month in a hospital taking care of her. I don't think that the questions are necessary any longer.

Tristan, Nothing wrong with your wife looking for adventure. It's good that you encourage it. As far as being a bit old to have to much adventure in the bedroom, I have to question that. I am going on 34 and am not even close to throwing any adventure away when it comes to the bedroom.

As far as the gas thing goes, It happens but we don't need to be rude and disgusting about it.

Simon: What if he(Mal) tells you to kill me.
Zoe: (without hesitation) I kill you.

I just can't imagine bumping into someone who completes me in every way. Maybe I'm not the romantic type and maybe it will never happen 'cause I'm not looking for it to happen but I agree with Grizwald. Been married for almost 30 years, some years definitely better than others but we work on it in the tough years and enjoy the good ones.

Most annoying habit, hmmm ... people thinking they have the right to control someone thru intimidation. DEFINITELY annoying!

I imagine that's so, sir.

Dayve, try being a woman who hates it. It's a preconception in society that women have to be able to talk about nothing for hours. My mei-mei and I fell out once for several months because she didn't get the fact that when I talk I like to talk about things.

(Although I will talk about sports and video games etc. for hours. Some people juggle geese.)

Tristan - your casserole thingy sounds like a very odd shepherd's pie. Fisherman's pie? I'm a good cook unless its something vegetarian, so I like doing it in that I know it'll be something I like, but I love it when someone else cooks, especially when we do it alternate nights. It shows a happy sharing spirit.

I have to say that being inconsiderate is the one thing that annoys me most about my guy friends. Women are capable of it, too, but it's mostly the guys that don't call when they're supposed to, don't show up when you've arranged to meet somewhere, don't answer messages for months on end. Then again, sweeping generalizations are bad and I think I just have some unreliable friends.

Lysander, the hypothetical questions game bugs the heck out of me, too. It's just pointless and manipulative and makes you appear to be looking for a fight. And I pledge to never ask them of any future significant other.
