    1. 45-minute showers - We take showers together. No need to say we don't keep it short. But as soon as the hot water is gone (I have a boiler), we're out. I am adorable in the shower.

    2. Spoiled pets - He spoils them as much as I do. Juni eats what she wants from the corner of the table. I am adorable when I kiss and pet my cats.

    3. "Casual Sunday" - hmm, I am adorable in a bathrobe or other summary clothing.

    4. All TV, all the time - well, I have to admit, sometimes if it's too much tv, you forget about the person next to you. I am adorable when I watch tv, though.

    5. Pretzels in bed - Juni takes care of the crums. As for the clean sheets, I love the smell of freshness, so I do change them. I am adorable when I eat in bed.

    6. Aimless whistling - I sing, and again, I am adorable.

    7. Lack of silverware - I have silverware, and I have plates and I am adorable again.

    There's too much emphasis on what you should do, how you should act, you know, the whole Holliwoodian concept of a perfect woman, or a perfect man, or a perfect relationship. Just be yourself, you won't be able to pretend you are who you are not for a long time anyway.

    LOL!!! Barbara and Vio, you are too funny, and adorable too!!!

    I find that I agree with most of this, except for the long shower, so I must be a prude (actually, I knew that long ago). Of course, there are hundreds of other habits I need to break, just that six of these seven aren't among them!!!

    Dragging yourself out of bed at 2 PM, trudging around the house all afternoon in your bathrobe, brushing your teeth over the six o'clock news and only taking a shower after dinner — unless your new beau is as laid-back (read: as big a slob) as you are, all that will soon be as extinct as the dust bunnies under your bed.

    Ah yes, I will "show them who's boss" as practice for my love life.

    I don't show my pets who is boss and I don't show my husband who is boss. I'd think couples who feel the need to show each other who is boss will definitely have some serious problems. I'm guessing that was meant to be a humorous line.

    Anyway if you love pets, the best way to be happy in a relationship is with someone who feels the way you do.

    I've always found those dating and relationship guides in magazine articles to be pretty inaccurate.

    Another married person who breaks the rules...

    1. Showers...Mine are usually less then 15 minutes, but his are often 30-45!

    2. We both spoil the dogs...I let them get away with more, he gives them more table scraps.

    3. Casual Sunday...yep, and Saturday, and any day off work, and...

    4. Tv, on; computer, on; Stero, well sometimes on (even with the TV!)

    5. Pretzels? We have three dogs...just try and find food crumbs!! (dog hair, tennis ball fuzz, sure, but no food!)

    6. Well, Ralph sings the shower, does that count?

    7. We do have three nice sets of silverware. One is inthe basement and has not seen the light of day in 4 years, but we have plenty!!

    2. Spoiled pets
    Strict disciplinarian that you are, you're perfectly fine with Bonkers the dog snarfing your Wheaties in the morning, and it's just so cute when Cleavis the cat curls up in the kitchen sink for a nap. Even if he's a pet lover, your boyfriend will be horrified. Show the beasts who's boss — if nothing else, it'll be good practice for your love life.



    That is crap though!! I would spoil my pets like that anyday!! AND MY BOYFRIEND STILL DOESN'T CARE!! You are right Dogz, if they don't like it TOO BAD!
