Easy with that domestic abuse term. In NJ isn’t that foreplay?

There will be more babies born in Dec/Jan most likely too.

didn't 'cause' it just exacerbated what already existed by enforced closeness. Some level of physical and emotional distance is how many relationships survive.

Dang. With the breaking up of personal relationships, and the grief of many parents or other family members who are going to pass away, tougher vanilla dating options due to social/physical distancing, and the frustration of being confined home...

As long as the recession doesn’t kill *too* many wallets—the clubs are going to have so many miserable lonely dudes waiting to hand over money. I’ll have to start creating Rick-style exploitation brag threads. 😉😉😉

Couples are spending way too much time with each other at home right now. This doesn't surprise me at all.

Something newly learned today: when spice is couped up for way too long she breaks out the backup set of daggers.

^ 😅😅 Touché.

On the flip side, at least I haven’t gleefully wished for any particular board member to die just because I don’t like their personality&political views—nor have I told anybody to drink antifreeze.

The more time my wife and I spend together, the better we get along. A lot of this has been a lot of fun, especiually the sex part.

I have wondered how guys with secret families have been weathering this crisis. Very hard to go to the sales meeting in Florida right now.

Divorce's are going to go beserk when the courts here open up again. Being able to do business has endedd; but getting retained for future business has not.

Greenland has banned the sale of alcohol as a result of CoVid. They already have a child abuse problem and feared sheltering in place, combined with alcohol, would make it worse.

Being stuck together is going to amplify problems in a marriage

This explains why SJG has gone silent. Must’ve got locked up when his mom called the police for threatening her. She probably tried to throw his ass out of the basement, and he got mad.
