The second time we dated, we kissed at Thanksgiving when we were both home from school. That's when we both count our started dating date, so we kissed right away.

This is actually really funny - as I mentioned before, we started "going out" in 7th grade (which actually means sitting together at lunch, talking on the phone sometimes and going to movies in groups of friends). We were "going out" for 9 months, which is a LONG time at that age. We were at a school dance and after dancing to the last song of the night (My Heart Will Go On from Titanic, lol) he leaned in and just laid one on me - His mouth was open, mine was closed, I was caught off guard and like whoa?! And it just was bad. I told my friends about it and he got embarrassed and dumped me a month later. But we got back together about four months after that :)
This last time around that we started up again - which was two years ago - it was immediately. I was with my ex for six years and had told Ben that I was planning on breaking up with him and the day I broke up with my ex, I called Ben and he came over that night to hang out and make me feel better. He kissed me that night.

Question to all knotties- How far in did you kiss your DH/FI?
First date. He also slept over the first date--but nothing happened, I swear.
We got back from our date around 10 and we talked for hours. He lived a half hour away and was exhausted so I told him he could sleep on the couch. I had a locking bedroom door, and besides our mutual friends vouched for him so I didn't think he'd try anything stupid.
At one point we were sitting on the couch together and he said he was tired and going to bed. I honestly thought he wasn't interested in me because he hadn't tried anything, so I flat-out asked him why he hadn't kissed me. It threw him off, poor guy, and he said he didn't want to rush things.
So I said okay, then got up to go to bed. He pulled me back down and kissed me. Best kiss ever. Then I told him to keep his butt on the couch the rest of the night.

Posted by MarriedInAFever[/QUOTE]
It's a long one:
This guy has a drinking problem. He comes home every night, shitfaced, with throw up all over his shirt. His wife tells him that if he does it again, she'll kick him out. Well, he's really good for several weeks and then finally he goes out. And guess what? He throws up on his shirt.
So, he decides that he'll put a $20 bill in his front pocket and tell her that someone else threw up on him and gave him money to buy a new shirt. He comes home and feeds his pissed off wife his BS story but he tells her that they guy paid him $10. She pulls the money out of his pocket and realizes it's a $20 and asks him why he has it instead of $10. He says "Oh yeah. He shiit in my pants too".
I'm pretty sure I told that wrong because it's not really funny now that I'm reading it. So here is Ben's favorite joke:

So we're sitting on the couch and he farts, I don't hear it, but I smelled it. It was so bad I thought it was the dog, so of course I start blaming her. H jumps in and is like "Yeah dog, you're nasty. You were probably eating cat turds weren't you?" So we ragged on the dog about it for 5 minutes. H gets up to go to the kitchen but turns around and says to me "It wasn't the dog that ate cat turds, I'm the one who did it (as in farted)." But I thought he meant he ate the cat turds. It was an interesting night.

He can hold an entire conversation and never break the accent. The last one he did that was really good was when he bought me a pair of earrings for my birthday and as he's signing the credit card receipt in the store, he looks at me and goes "Opulence. We has it," in the Russian accent. It's a lot funnier if you've seen the DirecTV commercial.

We are HUGE baseball fans - Minnesota Twins, specifically. I love to go to the games and yell at the opposing team, and I have nicknames for the players. Example - Joe Mauer is "boyfriend."
Another nickname I have is for a relatively new rookie to the team, Danny Valenica - I call him Fetus. So Ben and I have started calling all rookies fetuses.
When we don't watch the games together physically, we're texting each other back and forth about the game. Last night we were doing this, and the Twins were playing the White Sox and the Sox busted out this rookie pitcher they got like a month ago who was probably 6'4 and 160 lbs. So, skinny.
Ben texts me "Who the hell is this Beanpole Fetus?" So yeah. I laughed at that.
Now that I'm reading that it doesn't sound as funny... lol, I guess you just had to be there. Or be us.
Everyone: what's the last thing your fi/H did that made you laugh out loud?
He started sniffing me like a dog. I know it doesn't sound funny, but I had just called him a horndog so he essentially tackled me on the couch and sniffed my neck then licked my cheek. It was so stupid that it was hilarious. Plus he rarely acts goofy so it was definitely a moment to remember.

He was late because of a snow storm, so I waited at the bar in TGIF's. We decided to eat at the bar. I few hours in I had to go to the bathroom so as I slid down off the stool we ended up very close and kissed right then. He said I kissed him first, I said it was him.
So we continued that for a few hours in the car, then he went home. I didn't become a 'real' slut till about a month later, I made him wait.
Heirloom jewelry: I have wedding rings belonging to I believe my great grandmother and great-great grandmother or father. I would've assumed great-grandfather, but the initials inside don't match up. Of course, it doesn't mean it wasn't handed down.
I wore J's grandmother's ring for the wedding, but gave it back to his sister. His mom's mothers' ring was in my bouquet, too - gave that back as well.
I used in my bouquet (and still have) my Poppa's first fraternity ring, a cufflink of my Grandaddy's, and I have several costume jewelry pieces and handkerchiefs from my great aunt.
I also have a homemade quilt from my great grandmother and a handmate crocheted bedspread from either her or my great aunt. And a jar of tatted lace.

</div><div>Well, out date started at 8 and we ended up making out the parking garage (freezing) until about 2:30am. I'd say around 1:45 was the first one, so 5 hours and 45 minutes.

So we're sitting on the couch and he farts, I don't hear it, but I smelled it. It was so bad I thought it was the dog, so of course I start blaming her. H jumps in and is like "Yeah dog, you're nasty. You were probably eating cat turds weren't you?" So we ragged on the dog about it for 5 minutes. H gets up to go to the kitchen but turns around and says to me "It wasn't the dog that ate cat turds, I'm the one who did it (as in farted)." But I thought he meant he ate the cat turds. It was an interesting night.

FI's really good at imitating accents, and speech patterns even. He's had two Russian bosses, so his Russian accent is spot on. He can hold an entire conversation and never break the accent. The last one he did that was really good was when he bought me a pair of earrings for my birthday and as he's signing the credit card receipt in the store, he looks at me and goes "Opulence. We has it," in the Russian accent. It's a lot funnier if you've seen the DirecTV commercial.

We are HUGE baseball fans - Minnesota Twins, specifically. I love to go to the games and yell at the opposing team, and I have nicknames for the players. Example - Joe Mauer is "boyfriend."
Another nickname I have is for a relatively new rookie to the team, Danny Valenica - I call him Fetus. So Ben and I have started calling all rookies fetuses.
When we don't watch the games together physically, we're texting each other back and forth about the game. Last night we were doing this, and the Twins were playing the White Sox and the Sox busted out this rookie pitcher they got like a month ago who was probably 6'4 and 160 lbs. So, skinny.
Ben texts me "Who the hell is this Beanpole Fetus?" So yeah. I laughed at that.
Now that I'm reading that it doesn't sound as funny... lol, I guess you just had to be there. Or be us.

He started sniffing me like a dog. I know it doesn't sound funny, but I had just called him a horndog so he essentially tackled me on the couch and sniffed my neck then licked my cheek. It was so stupid that it was hilarious. Plus he rarely acts goofy so it was definitely a moment to remember.

Every time FI farts, he immediately goes "Fatty! (our chihuahua) that is SO disgusting!"

He was late because of a snow storm, so I waited at the bar in TGIF's. We decided to eat at the bar. I few hours in I had to go to the bathroom so as I slid down off the stool we ended up very close and kissed right then. He said I kissed him first, I said it was him.
So we continued that for a few hours in the car, then he went home. I didn't become a 'real' slut till about a month later, I made him wait.
Heirloom jewelry: I have wedding rings belonging to I believe my great grandmother and great-great grandmother or father. I would've assumed great-grandfather, but the initials inside don't match up. Of course, it doesn't mean it wasn't handed down.
I wore J's grandmother's ring for the wedding, but gave it back to his sister. His mom's mothers' ring was in my bouquet, too - gave that back as well.
I used in my bouquet (and still have) my Poppa's first fraternity ring, a cufflink of my Grandaddy's, and I have several costume jewelry pieces and handkerchiefs from my great aunt.
I also have a homemade quilt from my great grandmother and a handmate crocheted bedspread from either her or my great aunt. And a jar of tatted lace.

He loves that one. He can never tell it right, but he laughs everytime we say it.
CEW, I had to read the first one twice, and then I laughed hard.

Because clowns taste funny.

In between our first and second dates. He actually prefaced it by asking, "If I kiss you, will you smack me?" I said no.

He does lots of "Farrah" impressions and they're always ridiculous.
