I couldn't sleep in a diff bed than my man, I love my snuggles. We usually go to bed around the same time though. But my parents used to. I mean they still do. definitely. lol.
Nothing to do with you, but I had a friend that never brushed his teeth, just used mouthwash. He used to say the same thing, that brushing was unnecessary and that mouthwash was enough... What he didn't realize was that he had the worse smelling breath and it was everyone's immediate first impression of him. Of course he didn't realize it because you don't really smell your own breath, but damn was it terrible.
I used to think the same thing until I realized that you can't interfere with it. you can only shape what aspects are being catered to. So while things like tooth strength, and immune system may be dwindling, other things are progressing according to society. If you want to know which things... just look at what types of people are more likely to breed... Based on that, I'd say that the general population of the world should be getting more attractive lol. Here's one that's gonna piss some of you macho guys off. In a test showing two pictures of the same guys, one slightly altered to have more feminine features, it was shown that women are more attracted to guys with feminine features. This would lead me to suspect that males showing feminine facial features would more often be selected for potential mates, breeding for those characteristics in future generations... that's right, in the future, guys will look more androgynous... think about that for a minute. Of course ugly guys with money breed well too, and to make money, you need intelligence, so that's still being thrown in there as well luckily
I once didn't brush my teeth for a week it was rank. I prefer macho caveman type guys with hair. Lots of hair and can kill to eat
on a slightly related note, modern denitistry has found that tooth decay is caused by the (acidic) waste products of a certain type of bacteria when it breaks down sugars. So sugar isn't necessarily the cause of tooth decay, its a necessary factor though. More interestingly, they've found that some people don't have this type of bacteria in saliva samples... seems their mouths just aren't conducive to it. What this means is that certain people are more apt to get cavities and some people will never get cavities regardless of how they care for their teeth. The method of cavity prevention now is a medicated mouthwash that specifically targets this particular bacteria. Of course, like I said before, this is related to cavities and doesn't mean that you can't still get BAD BREATH
me and a friend of mine came to the conclussion that Brad and Angelina are the most homoerotic couple ever. More guys think Brad is hot and more girls think Angelina is hot than any other film stars out there. yeah, I like sleeping with the wifey... I woudln't want seperate bedrooms, but we definitely have to have our own spaces... we both enjoy making things and one room just isn't enough for both of us.
i would descibe having one's own space as the definition of a functional marriage. being siamese twins with your spouse will never strengthen your relationship. that being said, i don't necessarily mean you have to sleep in seperate beds. but, i do believe partners should have their own space and own time. also, i think that not brushing your teeth is gross, and it's lazy, like you said sarah. but, there are better ways of cleaning your teeth such as a non-fluoride agent. since fluoride has been known to cause teeth decay. i like baking soda. but, i still use a brush and i floss every day. my gums don't bleed.
QFT, not having your own time and space is a surefire way to make a marriage fail. bleeding gums come from brushing your teeth infrequently. if you brush regularly, your gums shouldn't bleed
Since neither of us work, the only time to myself I get is walking the dog. I saw on the news a while ago that not brushing your teeth leads to alzheimers I can't find a source though.
i think the most common major problem that results from not brushing your teefs is heart disease. hdh, you need some girly time!
Well, after almost 12 years of being together, we are so in love with each other its kinda freaky and the only thing we ever argue over is money, just cause we're poor. If that's dysfunctional, then I'm more than happy to have that label.
Hubby never cuddles... wish he would. We might as well be in two beds. I've gotten used to it now though.. he used to cuddle, but that disappeared about five years ago.
Well, although with my current living situations I am alone...a lot.... But when I am with someone, it is a very close friend or family member...and I have no doubt they would tell me if I had stank breath. It has never been a problem for me. also! You made lots of great points and Id love to continue talking about it, but Im really not in a properly functioning state of mind right now =] Waking up is hard on me. Im disoriented. Anything I could say just wouldnt make sense.
Yes yes! Most importantly I believe that it isnt money, or friends, or property or whatever that buys you respect, it is being respectful in itself. No matter how much I dislike, disagree with someone, I will always remain respectful if they do.
