Guys, do you end up paying for most things when in a relationship?
Die Hard replied to abdcskins's topic in The Tailgate
I let her take over the finances entirely. I found it necessary if I wanted a long-term relationship with her. Otherwise, we’d be fighting over money all the time. Just like parenting, we just have different ideas about how to do things. But neither is more important to me than our relationship. I’d rather be broke and penniless with her… than financially secure without her. And she’s the best mom… much better mom than wife… and my kids are incredibly lucky to have her as their mom. So I’m happy to do things her way… until/unless it fails and she willingly cedes (or asks for help). She can take all the glory or blame. That doesn’t mean I don’t have some criticisms, and we do talk about them when necessary. So far, we’re cruising along. 😎 -

Females often exploit that loophole 😂 Men generally make big purchases (stereo equipment, big screen tvs, ATVs, etc. while women generally nickel and dime… but still spend the same amount. 😂 My wife/girlfriends: “I bought X… it’s was on sale for $5. So I bought 400 of them.” “But don’t worry, I’m probably going to return about a dozen though.” 😂 -
After brushing your teeth do you rinse with water?

Always rinse with water to remove toothpaste residue. Then gargle with Listerine for the benefit of the rest of my mouth. 😂 -

I met my wife in university, specifically in Women Studies. 200+ females and 3 males in the class 😎 I am a feminist and I love feminists. We’re equals/partners… we both work and contribute. Doesn’t mean equally because that isn’t always reasonable. Our money all goes into 1 pot. The only thing we discuss are large purchases. -
Yes, the Celtics should be the heavy favorite to come out of the East. I think my Knicks are the best chance of knocking them off… but I wouldn’t bet they will. I’d be content with a long contested series. And while I’d love the Celts to get beaten by another underdog… I wasn’t getting excited over that game 2 loss. That wasn’t nearly enough to make me think that team is in any way vulnerable.

I never accused either of you of predicting an upset because you didn’t. What you both said was that the Celtics were “inconsistent” and “hadn’t learned previous lessons” all because they lost 1 game in a series that required to Heat to shoot at an all-time historical clip. It was typical individual game fan over-reactions. 😜 The Celts then went on to win 3-straight… including a home victory… by an average margin of approx 30 points. And won the series 4-1.. which next to a sweep is still dominant. So I wouldn’t dare call that team “inconsistent”. And the Celtics ^did^ show they learned something from last year. And Tatum told us so too 😂

That happens in a 7-game playoff series (1 stinker game). And I think the stat was the Heat were 23/46 on 3 pointers. Franchise record. A total anomaly was the only way it could have happened.

Technical difficulties. 😂 See above.

Short memory! 😉😜 Celtics close out Heat in Game 5, 'learning from our mistakes' https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/40066476/boston-celtics-close-miami-heat-game-5-advance-east-semifinals

All the chatter about the Celtics certainly died down 😂😜

Boston was 37-4 this year at home. I don’t think it’s fair to categorize a previous single season playoff run (an extremely small sample size that wouldn’t account this new season/roster) as somehow indicative/predictive of this season’s fortunes. In almost every playoff series in every sport, it’s pretty common for a championship team to struggle in a series but use it to coalesce and build momentum. Someone please make me stop defending the Celts. 😂

How can a team that goes 64-18 be inconsistent? And I think my Knicks can knock them off. They match up well against them. It’s no sure thing… but I think it’d go 7. I’d be a lot more confident if Randle was in the lineup… such a shame.

The media needs to create drama/news. Trump leading/winning gets a lot of press. And I’m fine with it… if it get Dems out to vote in droves out of fear… that works too. But I’m done with putting any stock in political polls. The last 2 presidential campaigns have taught me that. Biden/Dems are going to take the WH/congress/senate. Trump is going to jail. And hopefully normalcy returns. Wow, even a lighter compartment!! Never seen that before.
