What Is Your Partner Like?

My companion and I are very different, yet very much alike.

Physically, he's slightly bigger-built and taller than I am. He has a tattoo on his back of a wolf that he loves, and I like for the art-aspect but feel the wolf is a bit of a generic idea, but he loves it so i love it. Like him, I'm not too skinny, but I'm also not "overweight" necessarily. He's much more athletic than I am, he played football, soccer, and other sports growing up, whereas I prefer to go for bike rides, walks, hikes, kayaking, that sort of thing. He's very competitive in general, including sports and his life. I'm not really competitive at all.

Personality-wise, we have a lot in common and a lot not in common. The thing that really drew me to him when we first met was that he's worked all his life with individuals who needed help. He worked for Elder Services as a handyman for elderly individuals, and as a meal-deliverer for Meals On Wheels bringing food to elderly people who aren't able to get out to the grocery store. He currently works at System's Unlimited in a group-home that houses three individuals with Autism, helping care for the individuals daily needs. Both of us are very passionate about helping others, he's more focused on humans whereas I'm focused on helping animals. Makes us the dream team for saving the world But anyway, we're both caring people that want to help. He's extremely social, loves to hang out with friends and socialize whenever possible, constantly on his phone texting friends (which really pisses me off, but eh). I DREAD socializing and avoid it if I can, I'm terribly shy and prefer to spend time with people one-on-one rather than in a group. If he's feeling social, he'll go hang out with his friends while I'm out of town, working, or I'll go do something with my mom like go antiquing. However, we see eachother every day and he makes an effort to spend his free-time with me. He's more of a risk-taker and a wild-child than I am, he loves skateboarding, longboarding, skydiving, and is going to school to be a firefighter. He's pretty fearless. I am the eternal worrier, I worry about everything and prefer to feel safe, secure, and comfortable. Whenever he has a dumb idea, I'm there to tell him no, and whenever I need that push of confidence, he's there to support and encourage me. He has a loud personality, whereas I'm pretty quiet and only tend to talk when I feel I have something valuable or important to say, though once I'm comfortable with people I tend to have no filter and my crazy starts showing through He's very impatient and can be semi-easily angered over things, it can come off a little rude at times. He can be immature (he still thinks butthole jokes are funny -.-) but also knows when to be an adult and will readily have a serious conversation with me if I need it, however he's a terrible communicator and HATES to talk about his feelings. I LOVE sharing my feelings, having long, deep, engrossed conversations. He does try though, and that's what matters to me. He's an excellent student, always had top grades, I think it's his drive to do better than everyone else to be honest I wasn't very good with academics, but I was always very mature and articulate, good at writing and having a strong vocabulary. He's book-smart, I'm street-smart. We're both cannabis enthusiasts, he's more for recreational purposes and I'm for medicinal. We both enjoy a good meal, are family-oriented, and he's vegetarian and I'm vegan.

He and I are two peas in a pod. I think he brings his side of things to the table, and I bring mine. He's the confident, social one, and I'm the more quiet-thinker. If we're out to dinner with people, he can be the talkative one, and when we're trying to get the grocery-shopping done and need food besides frozen pizzas and macaroni (his favorites), I can evaluate prices and get us the most food the cheapest

 

Nothing wrong with a wolf tattoo or anything to do with Wolves.
I think wolves tend to be spirit guides and animals imbedded in the minds of young people at early ages. Has he ever seen the movie White Fang? It literally engrossed me as a child and I claim that to be the sole cause for my wolf and German Shepherd obsessions.

@Gorilla - I think, well I hear, that a large majority of the participants in female sports are meant to be gay. I don't think I've ever really been attracted to any female sports person though. Not even some of the higher regarding tennis players. :unsure:

 

You might be.

 

Only if you flee

 

four fingers and a thumb, some minor callouses, nails could use trimmed pretty soon.

 

ha

 

I love my man because he can get along with anybody and he gets over his bad moods within 5 minutes. As a fun-loving person this might possibly be all I require in a partner, but surprisingly it can be tough to find.

He's also funny, kind, shares the same goals and values in life. And physically he is definitely my type, with beautiful bronzed skin very thoughtfully given from some random Cherokee ancestor, nice dark hair and dark eyes. I've always had a certain physical type and he definitely fits it.

 

Tiny, quiet and introverted. Will give anyone the shirt off her back. Loves food, travelling and trying new things. A much better person than I am.

 

Then what makes qualified to comment on another's virtues if not equal to ones own. Sounds like someone dealing from the bottom of the deck. call a deck hand 10=10

 

pair of a kind

 

I was wondering about this thread. And whether, for Summer Season 2015 "partner" means a)the one/s I fuck or b)the ones I sleep with.

One of them is like cocaine. Enjoyable but only in limited doses. Associated with excessive yabbering.
The other is 12 years old and highly demanding, wakes me up at ridiculous times, and can no longer be bought where I live.

Both of them have nice almond shaped eyes.

One is a human. The latter is an Oriental cat.
As this is HF, I think I should point out. I do not have sex with, nor plan to marry the cat.
For a start off, he's male... and I sort of feel THAT would be weird...

currently, "partner" refers to your lab partner.

which i always thought was something made up by tv anyway. i went through high school and college and never had a "lab partner." the only time we did anything close to it was sophomore biology, when we paired up and dissected cats for a couple months. i guess technically we fit the definition of lab partners there, although that term was never used for it.

 

I currently don't have a partner, and I don't really want one unless it's someone I can connect with on a deeper level. I am not going to hold my breath either. My opinion is that relationships are suffocating, at least as I see it. I'd rather be alone than with someone I cannot relate to, even at the expense of sex.

 

My wife is cool, crafty, artistic, beautiful and thinks like me and I scored her here on the hip fora...

 

Which really means: I can't get a date.

I jest.

 

Oh, I can easily get a date, my standards are just unreasonably high when it comes to actual relationships.

 

All the folk I thought probably don't have partners do, and, all those folk I thought for sure had partners don't.

:d

 

They never trust me for some reason

 

you thought i had a partner? where have you been?
