Are we there yet?

7 Jul

We moved in together. It officially happened when I came back to Bucharest but he still hasn’t brought over his furniture cause he doesn’t have where to put it yet. We’re working on that. Unofficially, we’ve been living together since day one. I was still pissed because my relatives were killing me with their stupid questions about me being single when he moved in. It wasn’t subtle at all: I almost kicked him in the groin when I saw his toothbrush in my bathroom. He was allowed to sleep over but he wasn’t allowed to leave things behind. At least for the first two weeks he wasn’t. Then he simply moved in.

I thought Mum would have something to say about this but it seems that she has stronger opinions when it comes to tattoos than me living with a guy I’ve just started dating :D After visiting my parents twice they are now convinced that he’s more than a nice guy (although Mum thinks he’s a bit… work-shy) and that I’m on good hands. Or at least that’s the part of the story they should know.

Truth is that he is a nice guy. He’s even more nice than I deserve (it’s always been like that!) but he has his share of flaws. It’s always ugly and messy when we fight but then which fights aren’t like that? I usually shout and feel like throwing things at him and he is trying to calm me down and then he comes up with all these silly excuses for being so stupid. Of course I’m never wrong! :D

And officially we’ve been together for half a year now. Oh, I know it’s not much at all but it’s still something for me. Living together for six months with someone is really something. Of course we spent the “anniversary” apart because we were having one of our fights! He went out for some beers with his friend, I went out for a lemonade with one of my friends. We’re such a modern couple :D

Why are we still together? I don’t know. Maybe it’s because he’s such a nice guy. Or maybe because we can stand each other (which is a HUGE achievement for me). Whatever the reason is, I have to admit it’s cool to have someone to share stuff with. And go places with. And boss around. And cook for. And read with. And… and… and… :)

    You’re so cute I want to give you a hug. :D Are you doing something this Friday or can I tempt you with a bit of photo-walking and some muffins? :)

    It must be cause he’s such a nice guy. From my experience, young women at your age (and having your interests) are terribly moody, fickle, whimsical, unpredictable, if not mercurial. :-p

    You’re lucky.daca ma enervez eu si ma apuca disperarea ,se enerveaza si el si adio :) and then there’s no contact for some time…Enjoy it while it lasts!

    oh, this is so nice. Congrats! >:D<

    I’m still trying to gather all my courage to tell him to stay with me over the summer.

    it all sounds so familiar! be as happy as possible, love every moment of it and don’t work yourself out over the shouting moments – they just come and go.

    miss you :) maybe we get together and talk nonsense soon.

    Oh hey, Ralu can’t be having you all to herself! Trebuie sa ne vedem neaparat, cum asa, ca doar planificam de nu stiu cand, nu? :D

    Also, haha, asa sunt si eu, desi ma rog, el e unul dintre fosti si ne-am mutat impreuna ca prieteni si acum e mai mult si ma rog. Cand ne certam, eu tip, si mereu e vina lui! :))

    @Ralu: we have a date this Friday! ;)) Name a place and time and I’ll be there baring fruits :D

    @Béranger: you are absolutely right but that doesn’t mean I am wrong! :D I am never wrong! :D

    @tuvia: yeah, uneori e bine să nu fie 2 chiar la fel. Merci :)

    @G: I’m keeping my fingers crossed for you. Big hug!

    @jane: I miss you!!! But, unfortunately, I’m not staying too long here now :( But I’ll be back at the middle of August and then we can have some great girlie time together ;))

    @Ale: I have no idea where are your whereabouts now, but if you’re here this Friday, let’s have a threesome :D We’re leaving for Athens this Monday and during the weekend I’ll pack so I won’t feel like going out. So, Friday? :)

    @ada: wow, two years! Now that’s something! Well, many more happy years to come to you two :)

    @Ale: Nu promit nimic, că încă nu ştiu cât stau în Bucureşti după ce mă întorc. Dar dacă nu plec a doua zi, atunci DA :)

    @Ralu: you have instant message :))

    @Radu: ştii bine că eu nu mă mărit :P Ne vedem în august, când mă întorc for good :)

  14. Ale 08. Jul, 2010 at 2:37 pm

    Eu stau in Bucuresti pana in Septembrie (cu o plecare in vacanta la un moment dat, sunt sigura), deci poate ne vedem in toamna? :D

  15. Gracie 08. Jul, 2010 at 6:58 pm

    Maybe love has something to do with this?

  16. Radu 12. Jul, 2010 at 12:50 am

    Cred că noi doar iarna ne putem vedea. Nu ştiu de ce, dar presimt că sezonul vară-toamnă şi bem iar în Absinterie.
