Tell me about your relationship

[whiteoleander]

How often do you and your boyfriend spend time together, and how far away do you live?
At school we live like 5 kms away from each other and usually see each other like once or twice monday-friday and usually most of the weekend since he lives with a bunch of our close friends and we all hang out on the weekend. if one of us has exams we don't see each other while we're studying because we both prefer to study alone.

How often does he compliment you?
Pretty often

How often does he tell you he loves you?
Every day

How does he act towards you around his friends (girlfriend or more friendish)?
Basically the same, just less touchy cause really who wants to see that? He still always holds my hand and includes me in everything, and i get along with his friends really well so we've never had any issues.

Does he ever snap at you? If so, about what?
No, never. Of the two of us, I'm the snappy one of the two of us haha, but even then i'm very patient with him.

How often do you guys argue? And what are the arguments typically about?
Not very often, we rarely argue.

Does he trust you? Do you trust him?
Completely, i trust him more than anyone and i know he feels the same.

Do you guys hold grudges?
No, the arguments we do have we move on from rather quickly. Resent is so poisonous.

What do you guys typically do when you hang out?
We go on dates a lot, like dinner, movies, hotels, concerts. We try to do new stuff, like watching horsies at the racetrack. This week we took $20 to the casino for the first time and saw who could play longer, and we're going to a comedy club sometime soon. Sometimes were more low-key and just hang out watching Leaf games/movies/tv shows and chill with his roomies (who are close friends to both of us). On weekends our whole group usually goes to clubs or bars.

Is he typically more loving towards you when he wants to get laid? Do you guys typically show PDA in public (holding hands, hugging, not anything too much)?
In private, he's always affectionate, i don't notice a big difference between when he wants sex and when he just wants to cuddle and talk haha. We'll hold hands at dinner and movies and such but that's pretty much it for PDA, which i'm very okay with.

And anything else you want to add. Please also include how long you have been together.
We've been seeing each other for almost a year and a half. We have a very respectful, healthy relationship, which isn't always easy but is definitely worth it. I really think both people should try to have lives outside of each other. Have your own friends, hobbies, interests, be your own person. In my experience, it makes your relationship a lot better and happier.

[DollFace]

We were living together up until about a month ago and now we're a half an hour/forty-five minutes apart. We now see each other Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays, and Monday mornings on a typical week.
He compliments me everyday.
He tells me he loves me like a dozen times a day regardless of whether we're in person or not.
He always treats me like his girlfriend, regardless of friends being around. He's pretty affectionate.
He trusts me, but he has his moments of paranoia and we talk through it.
I trust him, but I have my moments too.
We argue about something every or every other day. Typically about stupid stuff or things/people from the past.
We do hold grudges, but we're working on it.
It depends. Watch movies (in or out), go out to eat/eat in, have sex a lot, go to random campus events. We did a lot more when we lived together during the summer. Now, we're both broke and just want to spend time with each other alone.
It's hard to tell whether or not he's more loving, because he's always loving and he always wants sex lol.
We show PDA: he usually puts his arm around me, or we hold hands and kiss a little.
If it wasn't for the fact that we both insist on communicating when we're mad (but calmed down from being really mad) we'd probably fail pretty fast. We're both kind of crazy.

We've been together 10 months today (: And we lived together for approx. 8 of those months.

[Etherealistic]

How often do you and your boyfriend spend time together, and how far away do you live?
*As we attend different colleges located in neighboring counties, we can't see each other every day but we do see each other every weekend. Typically, at least 2 days out of the week; sometimes 3 or 4.

How often does he compliment you?
*He compliments me often, calling me "beautiful", "pretty", "gorgeous", "sexy", etc. He also has pet names for me. He'll call me "babycakes" and "honey." I call him "poopyface." LOL.

How often does he tell you he loves you?
*Every single day.

How does he act towards you around his friends (girlfriend or more friendish)?
*He treats me more like his girlfriend around his friends, although he treats me with the utmost respect only a best friend would receive, if that makes sense. He's really comfortable whenever I'm around, whether his friends are present or not. He'll scoop me in his arms, snuggle, or sometimes kiss me in front of them. He's not ashamed to say "I love you" in front of them either.

Does he ever snap at you?
*It's happened, but it's a rare occurrence. I'm the one who usually snaps at him.

If so, about what?
*Usually over really minor issues that dissipate soon after they're brought up. We've never really fought over anything deeply serious.

How often do you guys argue?
*We don't argue frequently, however, we still argue from time to time.

And what are the arguments typically about?
*Again, it's usually over something small. I've been constantly bringing up how I don't like his older brother--but then again, that doesn't really count because we haven't necessarily argued over my disliking his brother. In fact, he feels I am justified for disliking him... so, yeah. Honestly, tiny issues for the most part. I admit I do complain to him about his family, because they're a childish and bitter bunch.

Does he trust you?
*Yes, he absolutely trusts me with everything he's got.

Do you trust him?
*With all my heart.

Do you guys hold grudges?
*Not really. He's not the type to hold grudges, and neither am I. But sometimes, I'll be mad at him for something for a couple of days or bring it up sometime later in the future just to spite him.

What do you guys typically do when you hang out?
*We usually just chill and enjoy each other's company. Whether it's at my house, his dorm, or my dorm. We eat, snuggle in bed, nap, watch movies, play games, discuss hypothetical situations, share stories of our past, study/do homework, get intimate, make out, etc.

Is he typically more loving towards you when he wants to get laid?
*Nope. We haven't even had sex yet. We're in no rush to have it.

Do you guys typically show PDA in public (holding hands, hugging, not anything too much)?
*Yep. We'll hold hands, side-hug--gah, we're so bad--we'll even proceed to make out sometimes. We were called out for making out in front of a restaurant window before. LOL. Yeah... but that was in the beginning of our relationship. We've toned it down.

Please also include how long you have been together.
*1 year and 7 months.

[ShallowBay]

We've been together for a year and three months as of this past Tuesday.

How often do you and your boyfriend spend time together, and how far away do you live?
We're long distance but when we get to see eachother, we're inseparable. We're 8 hours apart.
How often does he compliment you?
Not too often. But that's just how he is. I also kind of stopped him from doing it because my self esteem was so low a while ago that I'd argue with him, so he just stopped. But if I ask him he'll say if I look good or whatever. He does it enough for me to be happy, but I wish he did a little more. But I know why he doesn't.
How often does he tell you he loves you?
Every day, sometimes multiple times, sometimes not, but it's at least once a day
How does he act towards you around his friends (girlfriend or more friendish)?
Depends really. He'll take cues from me and mood. But we don't act like the typical couple, we're only lovey-dovey in private, but when we do act so in public it's pretty subtle.
Does he ever snap at you? If so, about what?
he did once, I was being really annoying and pushy. He apologized after.
How often do you guys argue? And what are the arguments typically about?
We don't really argue, we mostly just bicker like an old couple. It's always more of a discussion when we do disagree.
Does he trust you? Do you trust him?
Trust him more than anyone I know. And he trusts me too. He's apprehensive about some stuff because of his past girlfriends, but that doesn't stop him from trusting me.
Do you guys hold grudges?
Not at all. I even have a reason to, but I don't.
What do you guys typically do when you hang out?
whatever, it changes all the time. Sometimes we'll just hang out around the house on the couch or in bed all day, other times we'll go out to a museum or something, or dinner. This next time we'll be seeing each other we're going to the opera. So we change it up a lot.
Is he typically more loving towards you when he wants to get laid?
No....I don't think so anyway. He's pretty much the same. Maybe more forceful when he wants some, but he's just as loving any other time
Do you guys typically show PDA in public (holding hands, hugging, not anything too much)? And anything else you
want to add. .
We hold hands, hug, I may cuddle up against him if that's possible, like on a train or bus, we'll kiss. Pecks if it's daylight, maybe more if we're seeing each other again after a long time of beign apart. I have no shame with a big kiss in an airport by baggage claim. lol He's a little bit more reserved but we compromise.

We don't communicate like most couples. We both have trouble saying verbally how we feel. So we write it all out, usually over Microsoft word. lol We both don't express our love the same way either. I'm the more physical of the two of us--kissing hugging cuddling etc. He's more of the "Let's go do something together, let me do this for you, you're tired" type. We both just figured this out because of a book. He read it, I haven't seen him yet to get it from him. But we work out very well as a couple. We've been in lvoe with eachother since day one.

[hot_pink_underwear]

How often do you and your boyfriend spend time together, and how far away do you live?
We live together, but we don't spend much time together. I work early mornings and at least 50 hours a week and I have school and he works nights.

How often does he compliment you?
I'm not really sure.Sometimes it all just blends together. I've never thought it wasn't enough though.

How often does he tell you he loves you? How does he act towards you around his friends (girlfriend or more friendish)?
I'm not really affectionate in front of other people, so we're pretty friendly.

Does he ever snap at you? If so, about what?
My friends, but very very rarely.

How often do you guys argue? And what are the arguments typically about?
Not very often. Maybe once a month. Usually my friends and he gets really jealous/worried.

Does he trust you? Do you trust him?
He does at heart, but he's a really jealous person. Just gotta snap him back sometimes. And I trust him more than anything. I don't think I've honestly ever worried about him cheating or whatever.

Do you guys hold grudges?
A few things, probably shouldn't but whatever.

What do you guys typically do when you hang out?
We live together, so everything.

Is he typically more loving towards you when he wants to get laid?
Nope, afterwards yes.

Do you guys typically show PDA in public (holding hands, hugging, not anything too much)?
Holding hands, yeah. But like I said its more for in private.

And anything else you want to add. Please also include how long you have been together.
We've been together since 2010.

[Castles]

How often do you and your boyfriend spend time together and how far away do you live? we typically hang out 3 days a week, sometimes 4, and usually for a big chunk of the day/night two of those days, and just the evening for one of those days. we live 30 min apart. we also like to skype when on days we don't talk.
How often does he compliment you? varies...usually some kind of compliment every day or every other day.
How often does he tell you he loves you? many times a day. every time we get off the phone; we talk on the phone at least 5 times a day (we both have jobs where we can make a phone call while we're working).
How does he act towards you around his friends (girlfriend or more friendish)? he treats me like a gf. minimal PDA but you can tell we're a couple.
Does he ever snap at you? rarely... like most others said i'm more snappy than he is. only if he is in a poopy mood.
If so, about what? umm i can't even think of the last time he snapped at me.
How often do you guys argue? not often. we do have disagreements/misunderstandings occasionally. i could count on one hand the legit arguments we have had.
And what are the arguments typically about? our disagreements usually are a result of me getting annoyed with him...usually it's over something he said/did/didn't do but a lot of that comes from him not knowing i wanted him to say/not say and do/not do certain things. so we are just working on communication.
Does he trust you? he trusts me, but he gets weird about my past sometimes. we recently discussed this and he admits he needs to cut it out.
Do you trust him? i trust him wholeheartedly.
Do you guys hold grudges? sometimes i hold on to things longer than i should, but once i feel like he is sorry and that he really understood my point of view, then i get over it. he does not hold grudges against me, he seems to get over things quickly.
What do you guys typically do when you hang out? in the past, i really tried to mix things up and keep it interesting. this semester has been so stressful so i feel like i've been sucking at it lately... usually when we hang out, we are at my house doing hw. lately there's been lots of family events going on so he attends those with me. we went to the mall and went out to eat tonight, which was fun.
Is he typically more loving towards you when he wants to get laid? he's more touchy-feely, obv. i think that he says more romantic things during sex, too. but i think it's because he feels like it is an intimate time to say those things.
Do you guys typically show PDA in public (holding hands, hugging, not anything too much)? we always hold hands. we link arms if it is cold out. lol. a peck on the lips goodbye. that's it though, nothing too over-the-top.
And anything else you want to add. we're both a little clingy. i think any problems we have ever had have been from the lack of communication. we talk about it, and we work on it. communication can solve most problems between compatible people.
Please also include how long you have been together. 10 months. so excited for our 1 yr anniversary!!!!

[Frosted♥Rose]

How often do you and your boyfriend spend time together, and how far away do you live?
We've been spending more time together recently. About 4/5 days a week in the past couple weeks. Before that, at least the weekend. We go to the same university and his dorm is just up the street from mine.

How often does he compliment you?
Every time we're together, pretty much, but we compliment each other in silly/playfully joking ways. For example, he'll make fun of my "asian-looking eyes" when I smile, and then when I make a comment back he'll say something like "but I like them, they're beautiful."

How often does he tell you he loves you?
We haven't yet.

How does he act towards you around his friends (girlfriend or more friendish)?
We don't spend much time around his friends, but the couples times we have he treated me like a girlfriend. He definitely treats me like a girlfriend around my friends too.

Does he ever snap at you? If so, about what?
Never.

How often do you guys argue? And what are the arguments typically about?
We've never gotten in a full out argument. If one is upset (usually me lol), we let the other know, and the other usually didn't realize said thing made them upset. Then, we apologize and make sure it doesn't happen again. Neither one of us is very emotional or augmentative.

Does he trust you?
Yes.

Do you trust him?
Completely.

Do you guys hold grudges?
No. There are things that may bother us for a little while, but we both tend to get over things pretty quickly.

What do you guys typically do when you hang out?
Watch TV, cuddle, go to the movies/ out to eat, go to parties, hang out with friends, study, explore, play fight and just generally act silly.

Is he typically more loving towards you when he wants to get laid?
He's more touchy-feely in certain areas...obviously lol, but I wouldn't say he's more loving.

Do you guys typically show PDA in public (holding hands, hugging, not anything too much)?
He's into A LOT more PDA than i'm used to, but it's never in an overly gross/sexual sort of way. He'll hold my had, wrap his arm around me, talk with his face REALLY close to mine...like foreheads pressed together, we'll hug, a couple pecks if we're not around tons of people or we're saying good bye, and sometimes I'll sit on his lap if we're just with friends or something. We also push each other and play fight like children in public lol.

And anything else you want to add. Please also include how long you have been together.
We've only been officially together for about 2 months. But we were exclusively dating for about 6 months.

[Alex.In.Wonderland]

How often do you and your boyfriend spend time together, and how far away do you live?
We spend pretty much every day together except for maybe 1 or 2 days per week. We don't actually hang out for long periods of time though, we usually just hang out during our break between classes and grab a quick bite to eat.

How often does he compliment you?
Pretty often. He does so more when we text because he's not a very emotional person when he actually talks, but he does show me he loves me by the way he acts rather than what he says.

How often does he tell you he loves you?
At least once every day (saying goodnight).

How does he act towards you around his friends (girlfriend or more friendish)?
The same as he does when we're alone. Well with a little less PDA and stuff, but he doesn't treat me any differently.

Does he ever snap at you? If so, about what?
Not really.

How often do you guys argue? And what are the arguments typically about?
Maybe once a week? And it's hardly an argument, it's more of a stupid bicker type thing.

Does he trust you? Do you trust him?
I trust him, he trusts me.

Do you guys hold grudges?
No we don't.

What do you guys typically do when you hang out?
We usually just get lunch or something or just relax with each other and watch TV.

Is he typically more loving towards you when he wants to get laid?
No it's about even. I can tell when he does though.

Do you guys typically show PDA in public (holding hands, hugging, not anything too much)?
We only hold hands really and kiss goodbye.

We've been together for two years come May.

[NeonLights]

We've been together around two years.

How often do you and your boyfriend spend time together, and how far away do you live?
-We live together, so every day. A couple nights a week we do our own thing, though.

How often does he compliment you?
Very often, especially if I actually doll myself up.

How often does he tell you he loves you?
Alot. We say it several times a day.

How does he act towards you around his friends (girlfriend or more friendish)?
It's obvious I'm his girlfriend, but we aren't hanging off eachother all the time.

Does he ever snap at you? If so, about what?
No. He does shut down if he's angry/annoyed. I'd almost prefer he'd snap so I have an idea on what's bothering him. Doesn't happen too often, though.

How often do you guys argue? And what are the arguments typically about?
Not very often. Once every couple of months. They're both usually stemmed from us both being in a bad mood.

Does he trust you? Do you trust him?
I trust him 100%, he trusts me, he's just a little jealous sometimes.

Do you guys hold grudges?
Not really, no.

What do you guys typically do when you hang out?
Hang out in bed, watch movies, go out for dinner, get together with friends.

Is he typically more loving towards you when he wants to get laid?
Loving isn't the right word, he does make it very obvious though.

Do you guys typically show PDA in public (holding hands, hugging, not anything too much)?
Hold hands, hug, quick pecks. Nothing too crazy.


I will note he's a much better boyfriend than I am girlfriend. I suck at relationships sometimes.

[Dork_at_heart]

How often do you and your boyfriend spend time together, and how far away do you live? It depends on the week and our work and school schedules. The bare minimum is once a week, which incredibly hard to do, but we did that all last semester. This semester has been better and we average about twice a week. We usually don't see each other more than 3 days a week.
How often does he compliment you? He compliments me constantly. Whether when we are texting or on the phone or in person. He compliments a lot. This is something i need to work on, complimenting him.
How often does he tell you he loves you? He tells me he loves me multiple times a day. We always say it when we are parting or going to sleep. But we will be texting in the middle of the day and i'll say something and he will randomly reply with "i love you," i tend to do the same thing.
How does he act towards you around his friends (girlfriend or more friendish)? He treats me exactly how he treats me in any other situation. Its great. Our interactions with each never change depending on who we are around.
Does he ever snap at you? If so, about what? He has never snapped at me. He occasionally gets frustrated with me because i don't want him to leave. But its never really mad. And then it will pass on my part, in a matter of minutes, and things are fine. I get irritated with him a lot. Its my personality. I also get over it within minutes. We always talk everything out. If there is ever any frustration/anger its generally over a miscommunication. My number one thing i get mad about, not getting to see him enough. But its a process.
How often do you guys argue? And what are the arguments typically about? kinda talked about this above.
Does he trust you? Do you trust him? We both trust each other completely.
Do you guys hold grudges? Never. We are both the type that if something is wrong we want to address it immediately and talk about it and then move on.
What do you guys typically do when you hang out? It depends if we are staying in or going out. We like to go to the movies a lot if we are going out. Or if i need to go shopping. We live in small towns and the nearest decent stores(ie. a mall, or target, etc) is 45 minutes away. So we will usually make a trip of that. Or if we are just hanging around my house we will go on walks. Watch shows with my parents, watch our show on my computer(Once upon a time, he won't watch it without me because he thinks its too girly, but he loves the show), we do puzzles, wrestle(usually when i get super hyper and he wants me to chill out. lol), sometimes we will do homework(more like i do homework and he keeps me company) and we love to cook meals together.
Is he typically more loving towards you when he wants to get laid? Not really. Again his attitude doesn't change the least at any time. Who he is in private is who he is in public. He is always loving toward me and it doesn't increase when he wants some.
Do you guys typically show PDA in public (holding hands, hugging, not anything too much)? We always hold hands, and we will give pecks on the lips and cheeks. Tons of hugs because they are my absolute favorite. Nothing more comforting to me than a hug from my guy. Occasionally he will slap my butt, which i always get on to him about because that's meant for private. haha.

Oh and he is 25 and i am 22 and we have been together for 7, almost 8, months.

[calioxbabeey]

How often do you and your boyfriend spend time together, and how far away do you live? We live 15 minutes, maybe 10 away from each other. Were together almost everyday even if its for a few hours
How often does he compliment you? all the time

How often does he tell you he loves you? Everyday

How does he act towards you around his friends (girlfriend or more friendish)? I mean you can defiantly tell were dating when were together but i feel awkward with to much PDT and so doesnt he

Does he ever snap at you? If so, about what? No, its usually me snapping on him :/
How often do you guys argue? I wouldn't say we argue, if somethings bothering us, we talk about it and fix the problem. not arguing needed

Does he trust you? Do you trust him? we both trust each other

Do you guys hold grudges? i defiantly do but i get over it

What do you guys typically do when you hang out? we usually watch movies, play video games, play guitar, will go out sometimes, drive around and listen to music, have sex, cuddle

Is he typically more loving towards you when he wants to get laid? NO haha he's usually like sooo we can watch a tv show, go on a walk, have sex, or have sex. you pick haha

Do you guys typically show PDA in public (holding hands, hugging, not anything too much)? holding hands, kissing nothing major

And anything else you want to add. Please also include how long you have been together. We've almost been together 7 months now but its more like a year because there was 4 months during the summer that we hung out and dated i just pushed him away and said i wasn't interested and wanted to be friends because I was dealing with a break up. I was real stupid to push him away but I'm glad it all worked out. He's such a good person for me. I have a more of a temper problem and I over react easily and I need someone who can call me out on my B.S and he defiantly does that. He's just such a sweet and caring guy. I really don't know what I would do without him. He's my best friend and we have so much fun together doing nothing.

He rarely compliments me, but tells me he loves me everyday.

[StarShot]

How often do you and your boyfriend spend time together, and how far away do you live?
We usually see each other every other day if we are both at school (we go to the same university and therefore live in the same city about 7 months of the year). Otherwise when school is not going on we see each other maybe like once every 1-2 weeks, we only live an hour away from each other.

How often does he compliment you? How often does he tell you he loves you?
I'm his first girlfriend so he's kind of awkward sometimes but he does compliment me occasionally. I know he's thinking nice things about me but doesn't think to mention anything lol. And he tells me he loves me everyday unless for some reason we are too busy to really talk that day.

How does he act towards you around his friends (girlfriend or more friendish)?
Like I said above he's sometimes awkward so it varies. He's not afraid to show affection to me in front of his friends but it's not "over the top" as we might be when it's just the two of us.

Does he ever snap at you? If so, about what?
No never. He only becomes frustrated when he can't figure out what to do to make me happy.

How often do you guys argue? And what are the arguments typically about?
Hardly ever. And if so it's usually me having trust issues, NOT because of anything he has done. It's usually because of my past history and how other boyfriends have treated me. I just get paranoid about my boyfriend leaving me.

Does he trust you? Do you trust him? Do you guys hold grudges?
I would say we both trust each other a lot despite me getting paranoid sometimes. I know deep down he would never treat me badly or do something behind my back. And no we don't hold grudges, we are not the type of couple who bicker.

What do you guys typically do when you hang out?
Most of the time we are at school when we hang out, so it could be anything from just relaxing, watching movies, doing homework, talking, or just weird silly things - nothing too interesting.

Is he typically more loving towards you when he wants to get laid?
We haven't had sex yet. We've been going out 6 months, and I'm not sure if we'll ever get to sex. I'm a virgin despite having 4 previous boyfriends. I think we both want to be committed or wait it out for the long run to have sex. But with other stuff we do lol, his attitude does not change towards me. He never puts any pressure on me to do anything for him, his love for me is consistent.

Do you guys typically show PDA in public (holding hands, hugging, not anything too much)?
Yes, but nothing too mushy I'd say. But what can I say we are in that puppy dog stage lol.

And anything else you want to add. Please also include how long you have been together.
As mentioned before we have been together for 6 months. I know I'm still young (19 yrs old), but I could see myself being with my boyfriend forever. I've had enough boyfriends to know whats good and bad for me. But anything like marriage wouldn't happen until we are done school. . I know it sounds crazy but we are perfect for each other. He supports me so much emotionally. I have become a much better person ever since I've met him.

[sideout]

Dang, Im kind of jealous about how much everyone gets to spend with their so
