you're in the car driving with your bae on a nice saturday evening. maybe down to the local sonic to get an ice cream cone or something. its been a good day. you've got your bluetooth connected to the stereo and your music on shuffle. one of your favorite tracks comes on and you turn it up a notch.

I text and would like texts all day long...including good morning and good night 😬
I'm the same way. And when I meet someone new, I wanna get all up in them DM's and actually see what kind of person they are. Learn about them, the names of their pets, their mother's maiden name, their favorite subject in high school.

I turn it back up and tell her "That's a reason." If you don't get the reference, you should watch more Bill Burr.1 -

Have a passive aggressive show down where we keep changing the volume.
The gf "accidentally" changes the songs in the car all the time now and I am suspicious. 🤔 I look at her like she murdered my first-born.3 -

How would you feel if you're dating/invested/married to someone that doesn't slash and burn all prior contacts and will cordially respond to ANY text/call that might be received? Is there a different standard for dating/committed/married?
Bold and caps is mine. Mostly concerned about time management here. I'm friendly with exes but you're an ex for a reason and cannot, by extension, be afforded the same attention as I'd give my current partner.
If this isn't a shared value then I'd ask why the "drop everything for everyone at every time" approach was important to them and take it from there.1 -

I'm singing it acapella at the top of my lungs. If I'm driving, twerking will also be involved for the extra thrill of it all 🤷🏿♀️3 -

Easy
1) put that pout to work, not the cute little coy one, but the lip jutting, pissed off 3 year old about to have a tantrum pout
2) turn the radio off with a dramatic hand gesture
3) don't speak to them the whole way to the ice cream shop, just shrug your shoulders and maybe sigh occasionally if they talk to you. If they ask whats wrong...you know the correct answer, I'm sure
4) when you get to the ice cream shop, tell them "nah, I'm not in the mood anymore"
5) when they go in to get their ice cream, change your ring tone to "the song" and the volume to "I can hear it from the neighbours house" loudest possible volume

Wait... there's a process to this? I thought screaming "I do what I want!" and flipping the dial to what I wanted to listen to would suffice. Hrm..

Thats too much pressure! 😅

It depends...Is it at my house or his?
Does that affect your answer?

'You're an ex for a reason and cannot, by extension, be afforded the same attention as I'd give my current partner.'
If you're only 'dating' but they're keeping everyone on the backburner there's not much you can say about it. If you're engaged or married, that's a different story. Juggling all kinds of potentials at one time is a fine art. It takes a lorra lorra strategy and planning.
What happens while you're 'dating' can be the handwriting on the wall for more happy horsesheet to come.
Never let an old flame burn you twice.

If we're talking about a dating scenario, going steady (ermagah, does anyone say that anymore?!) or a legal union of some sort, then regular, straightforward, and transparent conversation is always where I'm at.
For example, I'd rather have a talk about our opinion on open relationships, what we each view as "cheating" and other discussions considered difficult then avoid them and generate eventual drama for them, myself or any third party.
After some trial and tribulation fit for stiff drinks, I've come to realize that if a person I'm intimate with (who, in turn, has voiced and demonstrated some reciprocation) cannot also engage in regular, straightforward, transparent conversation then...

@MaltedTea Very smart. The exhalted ruler or exhausted rooster will end up a plucked chicken or a ruptured duck. His goose is cooked.
All those waiting on the backburner who are willing to go along for the ride will end up fried as well.1 -

Turn to him with The Look and say pointedly, "But it's my favourite".
Ponder how I'm going to dump him during the ice cream at Sonic. I don't get Sonic very often and I'm not wasting it on a premature breakup.
In reality, if we're going to Sonic that means we're on a road trip about 600 miles from home so I'll need to ponder that breakup thing until we get back or I'll be stranded. By then I'll probably have forgotten.4 -
