      That was my take. Like girl, he knew. It takes 20 seconds to research it.

      I am trying to assume it’s a joke from her part.

        I was guessing it was a joke on both their parts.

      Also, people who date never actually talk to one another so there’s no way he could have told her that’s what he believes

      Yeah but it doesn’t need to be chocolate specifically. For example my fiance is allergic to chocolate. When I can find them there’s these maple sandwich cookies she really likes from the health food store.

    As a Father that raised 4 daughters with my wife, chocolate was a line item in the family budget every month.

    And while I am no fan of chocolate, one small bar will cover my desire for the stuff for a year, I used to keep a small bar of it on my desk. Just sitting there unopened and uneaten. It drove them all crazy. Are you going to eat that Dad? Can I have it?

    I like to think he made a joke about how women need chocolate on their periods as a cute way of giving her a gift every time she was on her period, assuming she didn’t think he was that stupid, and it just never came up again.

    Date. Years? Shared flat? American words seem to have no meaning. That wasn’t dating, that was a commited, dedicated relationship.

      I think it’s weird that English doesn’t have a word for sambo. Partner sort of works, but it’s taken on a connotation of permanent dedication, and is often synonymous with spouse. Cohabitant sounds even more emotionally distant than roommate.

        According to this sambo pretty much IS “partner”, permanent dedication at all. Though I only skimmed it.

          It’s just a matter of connotation so maybe not everyone feels the same way, but I feel like if someone introduces their sambo I think they live together right now, but maybe not forever and always, whereas if they introduce their partner I’m going to read it as life partner or non-binary spouse.

            Hmmmmm… interesting. You wouldn’t possibly mind interviewing your friends and family on that topic and reporting back, perchance? :D I’d be really interested in if it’s more a you thing per a your region thing or actually a nationwide thing. lol

      Please remember we are a christofascist theocracy so anything besides a church wedding is considered “dating”.

        Fair enough. The concept of anxiety as a culture is very unpleasant to the mind and as such easily and quickly forgotten.

      That’s the common verb to use for a romantic relationship where you aren’t married or engaged in America. I’m honestly unaware of a different one
