Maybe I'm bitter

After living together with someone for four and a half years, I've pretty much come to the realization of what I don't want in a boyfriend/husband. I still have no idea what I do want in one but here's what I don't want:

• I don't want someone who only loves me sometimes. So you'll only take the good and not the bad? You only know how to be a "fair-weather" boyfriend? Not good enough. I need someone who will take the good with the bad. Why have you stuck around for so long?
• I want someone who is going to say "bless you" or something like it when I sneeze. I know it goes back to only loving me sometimes, but I know you're mother didn't teach you to be rude.
• I don't want someone who is not somewhat spontaneous. It's not like you have to be doing something every minute of every day but jeez, can you try to go with the flow one day a month? Does every thing have to be planned out?
• You like politics. GREAT! I have a few opinions. Let me tell them to you. Don't be so passionate about it that I can't even tell you that I agree with you on somethings. When I'm in a middle of a sentence about why I think we should leave Iraq, don't talk over me. It makes me not want to care about what you have to say.
• I have a small family here in Rochester. It's even smaller now that my dad lives 12 hours away. Try including me in some of you family time's. I know they are your family but they are also an extension of you. What makes you think I don't want to see them? And also, don't tell me the night before that you are going on vacation with them for a weekend and when I ask "Why didn't I get invited?" don't say "I didn't think you'd be able to go." Of course I can't go now, I only had a 12 hour notice. After the 5th time, it's pretty obvious I'm not wanted around.
  
• Could you maybe rinse a bowl? I'm not even asking you to do dishes. Just turn on the water, rinse out the spaghetti sauce and turn off the water. It's not hard.
• Have you ever heard of a 27 year old taking a nap every day after work? I mean every day. You're tired. Fine. But instead of sleeping on the couch where the tv and computer is, could you go in the bedroom so that I can at least entertain myself while you catch up on your oh so important beauty sleep? I really don't even care anymore that you nap. Hell, my grandfather used to take naps every day when he would come to visit. I'm pretty used to it. But freaking out cause I'm playing with the dog in the living room is a little much.
• We've had the same alarm clock for 2 years. You still don't know how to work it. Try reading the manual instead of cursing at 5:30am every morning 'cause it won't work the way you want it to. The snooze button is the largest button on the alarm. How can you not hit it?
• Don't be like "the house is a mess again." and then sit on your ass expecting me to clean it by myself. You helped make the mess. You can help clean it.
• When I'm home before you, I cook dinner for the both of us. When you're home first, you cook for yourself. Thanks! Thanks alot. Yes, I'm going to order a pizza. No, you can't have any. Does that make me selfish? Probably. Do I really give a shit? No. Not really.

Maybe it's time to live alone. What do you think?

Later.
