[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]ALot of lame people with lame marriages on here.  While OP might have used a bad example by citing bars, obviously the bigger point is that his girlfriend likes to do things one on one, either at home or at a restaurant.  That's pretty non compatible with a lot of people, and a lot of people would find that very boring.  I've been with DH with 20 years, we both have highly successful careers and are very happy in our marriage.  We both have always liked to have a couple drinks, go to bars, concerts, happy hours, parties etc.  Neither of us have anything remotely bordering on a  drinking problem.  But we have always enjoyed getting out together from just the cocoon of our own home.  We had to move a couple years ago for one of our jobs, and we've been so busy in the new city with kids and jobs that we've barely had time to meet anyone, and both DH and I agree it has been challenging for our happiness and relationship -- because even 20 years in, with kids, we like to go out and interact with things and people outside our home. Often that means with a drink in hand.  This experience makes me appreciate what OP is talking about -- that staying in, every night, with your SO can feel very boring.

OP, you aren't compatible so time to move on once your boredom starts to outweigh the enjoyment of sex.  [/quote]

I agree with all of this. You just aren't compatible. I'm in my 30s, my partner is his 40s, and we go out all the time.  I can't remember the last time we spent a Saturday night on the couch watching TV. We both love to socialize with friends, go to concerts, check out new restaurants, and yes, hit up some bars. I would be very bored if I had to stay on all the time. I don't think it's a male vs female thing either. More a personality difference. Sounds like you would be happier with someone more extroverted,  OP.[/quote]
