Tests of a Relationship

Totally tongue in cheek thread before anyone starts thinking something bad has happened!

What do you consider a test of a relationship? We are (well I say we, I mean he!) about to attach a tv to the bedroom wall. It does mean we can watch stuff in bed rather than downstairs but I am wondering if there will be a few choice words.

Not sure why there should be choice words , unless you fall out over what to watch ?

Or worse still one of you watches in bed and the other downstairs and you don't spend time time together .

I couldn't do any sort of DIY with my ex. She would ask inane questions when I was concentrating and I would totally loose my rag

It'll be if he asks me to hold something, I'm rubbish at being straight!

To be honest its more so we can relax in bed and watch something rather than stay up and try to stay awake (oh and so we can watch porn too when we have a free house!)

Why would I read instructions? .....I'm a man lol

No she would talk about stuff like finances when I'm hanging off a step ladder, drilling a hole in the wall. I'm like "WTF are you going on about woman???". She would then get the arse and I would feel like a bad bastard. It's called DIY for a reason lol

lol she was bored holding the ladder for so long. I used to panic when my ex wanted help. It would always end up with him screaming at me because he couldn't do it

Rule number one... Don't ask how many tool kits a man needs! Oh and also don't ask stupid questions like "can we drill yet?"

Good news:

I have installed a new television and a new areal (a proper one from the roof). There was no blood, swearing or calamitous accidents. I even allowed Ruby to hold my hammer.

I also showed her how to wire a plug (without the use of a hammer!).

But are you brave enough to test the plug once she has wired it?!

I'd say meeting all of my dad's family including my dad on one day was a fairly big test.

Also meeting my mum when you are going to the Rocky horror show in my French maids outfor complete with fishnet stockings and suspenders.

I put a tv up on my bedroom wall because he liked watching tv in bed (my xmas pressie)

It gathered dust until it went to his.

I haven't been to his in nearly a year. It wasn't the tv that caused the problems more his 'you're easily replaced'

So was the space where the tv was placed

Travel style and preferences for me.

My ex hubby and I are very different in that respect, which was one of the reasons why we split up.

I think a good test of a realationship is when one takes ill. They either care for you and look after you or run. Bless my husband he stays no matter what I throw at him because he knows it is my frustration at my illness that is causing to act that way

..how else am i meant to eat the chicken? Lol. If she don't eat from a plate - that would be another relationship tester.

Mind you, i haven't been in a relationship in a while now. So, not sure what happens nowadays.

After 20 yrs we have worked out that we need a clear plan of action that we both agree to if we are working together on any project around the house,it prevents us wishing mad powertool accidents on each other and having blood pressure so high our heads look like beetroots

I used to love watching The Bill. She used to wait till the Bill was on and then ask me a question involving the deployment of brain cells to formulate an answer

How utterly fucking stupid can someone be? I'm watching the Bill!!!!!!
