good morning, Lasters!
Perhaps that was my problem!
Fran and I sat next to each other platonically for a year and half in rehearsals an performances. Then we got to know each other over the telephone (while I was in a psychotic relationship for about three months). I think by the time we started dating we knew each other pretty well. Dating and sex were fairly synonomous by that point!

The rules eh....
Well see most of my current friends are Asian so their rules......are not until after marriage. I have one who is a firm believer in this. The others....I think it's don't ask don't tell...
I was raised catholic....
Tbh its just up to the couple. I think the biggest thing is to understand the potential consequences and know whether you trust the person enough.
I think you just broke one of the cardinal RULES..........
.....no religion on the DIS!![]()
THen I have another sort of friend (we have very little in common but is part of the collective)
She is Sri lankan/Indian and the rules....
You get to date for a month....after being set up with someone the parents choose
You then must choose. If you wish to continue to see each other you do so with an understanding of firm commitment. You get legally married within 6 months (but still don't live together...you can't even go on a holiday TOGETHER and share a room let slone bed)
Then the official wedding to the culture is a traditional massive wedding...after which you move in together...
She met him in may...getting legally married in November...getting married and moving in next august
No bed sharing until august...of course there is always the car...beach...woods...balcony...pool...

It's morning now. Is anyone else thinking about that delicous looking breakfast Queenie posted?
It looks really good to me. I am not much of a cook, so I rarely have a hot breakfast.
The tag fairy does NOT visit this thread. Otherwise, we would have all been tagged (and banned) a LONG time ago!
And don't encourage them to visit!![]()
Both my tags came from this thread.![]()
So the boy is going to meet my parents on Wednesday... This should be interesting.
