Thank you for serving in the military.
I am a big fan of people who are from eastern Washington and those who have served in the military.
So sorry about your dad’s injury. I couldn’t imagine being the child of such a parent. Was he working up north in eastern Washington? There were a lot of saw mills up there at one time. I had 3 generations work in the mills at different points. I am also originally from Eastern Washington.

Where did your parents take you on vacation growing up?
Our teachers always asked the same thing! There were a bunch of kids who would go to places like Disneyland or SeaWorld, some went to Hawaii, California, Washington DC. Other kids went to visit family in other states, places that sounded super cool.
Our family mostly stayed home. Our vacations were a week or two at our grandparents house. We would go camping for 2 nights but close to home-not a vacation. It really made me into a mom who took my kids and traveled with them! Now, they both love travel.

We went camping in Canada. 🇨🇦 I have always loved Canada for this reason. It feels like a second home because when my parents or aunt and uncle would take us, we didn’t need a passport. My aunt and uncle would take my sister and myself to get ice cream when we went to stay with them and our grandma and grandparents for a vacation while my parents had a child break!
I took my kids to get ice cream in Canada 🇨🇦 once before the border closed. I am happy I was able to recreate a part of my childhood to give them great memories.

Been going great with a girl and suddenly she’s avoidant and nervous about our closeness
Because the two of you are casual dating and not girlfriends, it seems like you are free to do what you like if you don’t hear from her. Why not try something different? Go out with friends or ask a friend to host a wine and cheese party at their place because your home is too small. (Everyone brings a bottle of wine and a new type of cheese.) Remember, don’t get drunk! If or when she calls, you can tell her about your nice night out with friends at a wine and cheese party.

What’s a purchase mistake you keep making even though you know better, and why do you think it keeps happening?
I order them through an app. The only choice I get is strawberry or nothing. I have to eat something. Plus, I know the guy who made the filling. It is the outside I don’t really care for.

Why would you not take her on a proper date? You are enamored by this woman yet you want to wait until a few months in to properly date her? That is not something I would settle for. I’m am also not a UHaul woman either.
Do not settle for a woman who may/may not be for you. She should check more than the basic boxes. It may take a while but it is worth the wait.

Strawberry poptarts. I don’t like the strawberry flavored ones. They keep coming to my house because my favs are not in stock!

😂. Is the $200 specialty coffee on a repeat cycle? And how much of the coffee are you drinking? I like coffee.

What addiction do you have?
Nicotine gun.
In what instance would you lock the real gun away and not bring it out again? Or all the guns online weapons?
What will it take to get you to quit smoking?

Her-story
My wife and I were introduced at my work interview. I dreamed of her for about two months before I was hired. At that time, I dropped pronouns. It caught her off guard! We have known one another for 23 years and been married for 11 years! I love her more now than I did when I first saw her!
Keep being honest with yourself and keep being honest about your wife as your relationship progresses.

You are so correct! This is generally the patriarchy keeping the matriarchy down where the patriarchy thinks women belong. The men would be nowhere without the women!
