    I would not get sexually involved with or give sexual favors to a man in order to get sexually involved with a woman.

    I wear pants. I Take my hat off indoors. I listen when other people talk even if I know what they’re going to say after the first sentence. I often don’t do exactly what I want to do with my free time, which sounds like a small thing but it feels big.

    BONUS – Wear harem pants.

    I share my feelings.

    However; I refuse to change.

    @Stefan It depends on the situation. What if the dude and the chick are both hecka fine?

    @phil it is interesting that you think you do any of those things with any regularity (except for maybe sometimes taking your hat off when you are eating).

    I am married, therefor my life is filled to the brim with compromise and the sublimation of most of my desires. I am sure that I will one day reach my breaking point and it will all end in tears/blood. Bloody tears.

    Oh, as for the bonus:

    I would never allow myself to get to the point where I allow my only expression of any individuality be my choice of Tommy Bahama attire. At least I hope not.

    Or harem pants.

    Tommy Bahama harem pants. Gag. Hurk.

    I moved in with my sister and had to get Time Warner instead of my beloved DirecTv. I have to learn the new remote. It doesn’t feel natural.

    I think i can be compromising for the most part… when it comes doi hanging out i am usually open to figure things out with friends instead of telling them what to do.

    I can be not compromising on a lot of things. One thing in particular is my sarcasm and like the words i chose to speak with. I am a strong believe that communicating using like the spoken word is 95 % context and tone. So if i say something sarcastically and am trying to make a joke, i don’t really feel bad if i offend you. I kind of see that as your fault if you have a particular word you are afraid of hearing/using… maybe that means i am a jerk, but i also don’t care
