This is pretty much how my relationship with my SO started. I just came out of a bad relationship where I was cheated on and met her, and told her in no uncertain terms I was looking for nsa fun and nothing else.

That was in 2008. Never married but still (happily) together with a 13yo son.

You were looking for National Security Agency fun?

[-] Asafum@feddit.nl 7 points 8 months ago

You'd never guess how fun it is to read every Americans messages!

[-] Emerald@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

I genuinely wonder what they mean by nsa now

[-] poplargrove@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

No strings attached

Me and my most recent partner also started similarly. Both had harsh breakups about at the same time, got into a FWB relationship, on date 4 I think we were both like "this is clearly not a FWB relationship". We talked over what we wanted to do and both decided being partner-partners sounded good. Shortly after they invited me to join them out of country for a week and I was like fuck it, this will either go very well or very poorly. It went very well. Now my damaged self is trying to figure out when or if I should tell them how much I'm falling for them

Tell them when you’re about to leave at the end of the weekend. 🙂

[-] ArmoredThirteen@lemmy.ml 2 points 8 months ago

I've done similar before x.x

Listen, they're just casually starting a family. No competitive ambitions.

[-] Dud@lemmy.world 12 points 8 months ago

Not everyone prescribes to the concept of state marriage. If they're good without it who cares.

[-] Sotuanduso@lemm.ee -1 points 8 months ago

I'm not saying "go marry," I'm saying to consider it.

[-] PresidentCamacho@lemm.ee 14 points 8 months ago

Yes I'm certain after 13 years together and a child they were just waiting for a stranger on the internet to suggest they consider marriage.

There is no world where they haven't discussed this topic already.

[-] Kyrgizion@lemmy.world 5 points 8 months ago

Honestly, because of money mostly. And since we only have one son he's automatically sole heir so marriage wouldn't change that.

Should I come into a few thousand unexpectedly I wouldn't mind putting a ring on it at all. My intentions remain the exact same either way.
