Did you see a bad relationship between your parents?

I just dump them, it's always after a month, I get sick of them. They start to annoy me. It's really bad.

That's the problem. My dad was an alcoholic, my parents used to argue every night. I remember listening to them, crying under the covers. If you don't see a good relationship you don't know what one is. It frightens you.

I used to be like this, and then I met DH. Never managed a relationship longer than 6 weeks prior to him.

One day it really will be the right person and the annoyance won't happen.

Emo DH proposed after 5 days and we moved in together after 2 months.

I'm not sure that the fireworks should go as early as 3 weeks though - although you might just be experiencing the absence of fear!

Sorry I am being no help here. Is he annoying you?

FluffySaysTheDailyMailsShite · 24/09/2009 23:47

Ok. Do you like him or just sick of the sight of him??

being together alot won't help.

Erm, why do you think you want a longterm relationship? They are not compulsory. It's perfectly OK to not actually want one and being single and/or having casual relationships doesn't make you a freak or a failure.
And a man who wants to move in with you after 3 weeks is quite possibly a cocklodger or indeed a nasty little shit of a narcissist. Does he say you're the only one who understands him, by any chance?

Ali not annoying as such. It's oh it's hard to explain.

It's like ummm ok....It is like we have been together for 4 years instead a month.
