Not much publicity in the mainstream media though. *Injects miserable note in happy occasion*
Unfortunately not in the mainstream, but still a step in the right direction Plus I stayed in my little twitter bubble where it was very celebratory
Great. Now I have the right to not get married just like everyone else
Exactly Feels good actually having the freedom of choice!

Hey guys can you help me with advice on something. I would ask on advice but they seem mean there.
Relationship advice. It's ok if not.

Oh thanks for replying...
It's embarrassing, I don't know how I feel about posting this.
I have been seeing a guy for nearly a year and a half now. I met him on a dating website.
It's just we have never really said we even like each other and I'm not sure what it is.
He didn't even get me a Christmas present. I got him one and he was just like "thanks".
I recently moved away from him, about three hours away and he's been down to visit me twice and he annoyed me a bit. Like he wouldn't wake up and I made breakfast at 9am and it just went cold. Also I bought dinner, and he ordered the most expensive thing on the menu, and he wouldn't share his fries with me. Then we had an argument over Jaffa cakes, because I thought they were really apricot, and he googled it and they are orange, but he was such a DICK over it my god. Ugh.
I just don't know what the point is. This sounds like I don't like him but I think we are really similar and we do have a laugh,
I want to ask him what we are, are we dating?
But I'm scared because I might freak out and dump him if he thinks he is my boyfriend, and if he says we are nothing, then ill dump him too.

I couldn't really comment, my first thought about him is that he's not a nice guy. You haven't painted the best picture of him

I'd say just ask him where you two are at, it sounds like you want more than he does, but then on the other hand who sees someone for the fun of it for a year and a half?

I don't know really. I don't generally like clingy ness and I think he might have just realised that he should back off because I'm not very you know, emotional.
It's cool to just ask what the deal is right? I mean no harm no foul?
I did ask him once if he missed me but he just said 'idk, I was kind of bored'.
Do you think maybe he is just a knob.

you just need to ask him. I know it's one of those awkward conversations but you need to know how he feels about you. If he doesn't feel the same way you do and he can't commit to a relationship you need to walk away and find someone who can.

Do remember thought all couples argue, even over something as silly as the flavor or jaffer cakes (yes we have all been their).

When you say "seeing" each other do you mean it's just sleeping together or is it a relationship?

Yeah I do. If I have to ask then don't you think it's nothing though?

We have sex and go out to gigs and dinner and things.
How would you define 'relationship'.

Sorry, I was slacking off in McD's when I replied, sadly as I was closing, I had to go back to work..

From the sounds of things, you need to figure out what you want first.

Do you want a boyfriend, or do you just want a friend with benefits?

Once you've figured out what you want, you probably should ask him where he wants this to go, to see if it tallies up with what you want.

You'll be able to figure out what to do from there .

I don't think I want either. Since I posted this I got depressed, now thinking about it makes me want to puke.
I'm a complicated soul. Thanks for the advice though guys.

I know you like to think that guys are only for shagging, but it won't kill you to have a relationship with one, and it doesn't stop you being bi, rather than gay..

I see what you might be getting at.
I find it really hard. Hard to think about. I don't even know what to say.

I would have thought you were younger as you seem very unsure in your self. I think you need to have some you time and figure out who you are and what you want.

30 is still young and once you figure out who you are and what you want you will have the best days of your life.

Some things are hard to think about, but if you want to come out the other side happier, you have to think about them.

That wasn't meant to sound harsh, I hope you get what I mean.

I totally misread that!

I bet you had a drink to that, not that you need much excuse

where has the sunshine gone today?
It's in my back garden, you can have it back because I'm trying to cook/bake.
