An unduly jealous man who is overbearing and possesive... insecure and always uncertain. I don't like to be treated like I can't be trusted!0

The waiters one good.
One of the things that made me realize I was married to the wrong man...
We were out to dinner. The kids had made a HUGE mess. HUGE. And the waitress who has just finished taking our credit card asks "is there anything else you need"
And he says "NO, but I know that YOU"RE GOING TO NEED A BIG BROOM AND DUST PAN TO CLEAN UP THIS MESS"
ughhhhh0 -
1. Drugs aren't ok, addictions aren't ok (of any kind)
2. Has to like my dog (I'm not budging on this)
3. My dog has to like them (she is a better judge of character than I am)
4. Not want to marry me on date 3 (yes this happened, yes, I continued to date him until he dropped the "L bomb" and I dropped him)
5. Has to understand I'm his girlfriend, not his property of any kind, I will my my own choices and he can kiss my boots if he doesn't like it.0 -
deal breakers:
* long hair
* living with their parents or more than 1 roommate
* anti-choice
* racist
* active addiction
* irresponsibility
pretty much everything else can be worked with
