Who has given up a workable option?

We have more fun together than apart. Why would we opt for less fun?

I always tell Ayaan she can see another film if she's not interested in the one I'm wanting to see. Doesn't harm our relationship any, just an accommodation to different tastes.
To each their own. We just do things together - things are more fun that way, for us.
We do everything we can together, but acknowledge that we don't have to everything together. More freedom that way.
I have 100% freedom. I choose to do as much as possible with her, and She vice versa. I couldn't imagine it any other way.
Boys, boys! Both your relationships are pretty.

I never said his wasn't. For some reason, the fact that I go to movies with SWMBO'd became a point of major concern with Ronja and Gawdzilla, who that I am to be pitied for not going to movies by myself and meeting up with SWMBO'd afterward. I at no point suggested that whatever others do is problematic.

Sure, but what's so awesome looking about it? Looks like pretty standard fare, and the animation is Shrekish.

I'm just yanking yer chain. I envy all of you for actually going out to the movies, however you get there.

A friend of mine is about 1m55-1m60, and draws a 25kg (55lbs) womens' competition bow.
I have a friend who is pretty exactly that size, too (she's shorter than Elder Daughter) and she can draw a bigger medieval replica bow than I can manage - and hit quite nicely, too. She has trained for over ten years, I haven't.

It’s organic. Make stuff for the internet that matters to you, even if it seems stupid. Do it because it’s good and feels important. Put up more cat pictures. Make more songs. Show your doodles. Give things away and take things that are free." - Maureen J
