are you married/in a relationship?

Post Reply New Topic

I'm in a relationship. It works perfectly because we leave each other alone for 23 hours of the day. The remaining hour is pure magic.

I'm getting married but my soon to be wife is definitely the closest friendship I have. I don't mean that in the sappy cliche way most people say they are marrying their best friend; I mean I do best cultivating one major relationship at a time, maybe because that's all I can handle well or what makes me most comfortable, but even though I do have a few friends, she is definitely the central relationship I have. I'd rather just be at home with her much of the time.

No, I'm simply questioning whether either of those two things can be wisely ignored. What's wrong with that? The thread title groups those two things (married, and in a relationship) together, so I presume the OP has no problem with my doing the same thing. I don't think you've answered my question. I asked what your point was in the hope that you'd clarify how the two things not being quite the same affects the validity of my argument, but all I got back was this insinuation that I've somehow not been clear. You haven't explained this supposed ambiguity in terms of how my words could be taken to have more than one meaning. Can you do that?

Are you implying that family memebers can't be friends?

No.
