Tweet saying: My bf was slow cooking ribs and I guess they were done in the middle of the night. So this man wakes me up at 3 am and goes “here babe, i brought you a rib.” So we sat in bed and ate ribs. I’ve found my soulmate.

    Glad they’re happy but I would be pissed off beyond measure. You woke me up at 3am for this? No I don’t want ribs at this time. I have to be up for work soon. Why are they even ready at this time anyway? Did it not occur to you that slow cooking might take a while? And to top it all off you want to eat them in bed and stain my sheets gtfo

        Yep, I wasn’t being sarcastic when I said I’m glad they’re happy. What a wonderful world we live in that these two ne’er-do-wells can find each other.

          I’m still looking to find someone who finds my particular brand of weirdness attractive.

          But if a woman woke me up in the middle of my sleep to give me ribs, my brain wouldn’t be on enough to register what was happening.

          I’d probably get confused, put it on my pillow, put my face on the rib, and go back to sleep licking the rib and pillow.

        If you can’t handle my ribs at 3am, you don’t deserve my ribs at 6:30pm

      Imagine the lives of people who can just randomly eat ribs at 3 AM. No work in the morning, they aren’t perpetually tired so they’re OK with random sleep interruptions, they don’t care about sheets that much, but they can slow cook ribs, so all of this doesn’t mean they’re broke.
      I’m envious as shit, if anything

      Isn’t that the whole point of relationships? For us to understand what we like, what we want, and what we don’t, and find partners who fit those things (while simultaneously fitting their preferences)? And then let people with different preferences and different characteristics find their own matches?

      I certainly wouldn’t be this person’s soul mate because like you, I’d be annoyed at the lack of planning and not at all charmed by this particular style of quirkiness. But let other people enjoy the things they enjoy.
