**GTKY - YDH**

So I was thinking about DH and my first date. I must say, he's probably lucky I gave him a second one!!
DH is 1/2 Native American and on our first date he told me he can't wait until he moves up the ladder at work, and he gets a gold name badge. He told me that he wants to not have his legal first name on it, but his Native American name.
Slapaho.
When he told me this I had absolutely no idea how to react to it. NOW, I know that he's joking. And I laugh and roll my eyes. At first, I did a wtf.
So ... has your DH ever said (or did) something that you went WTF, but now that you know him better it doesn't even phase you when he says/does it?

I'm not gonna lie, my jaw dropped a little (ok, a lot...) when I read that. OUCH. His own Prince Albert? Goodness gracious. Ow. (Does he still have it???)
Um, yeah, mine dropped, too. And yes, he still has it.

Holy Sh!t.... That's a courageous man you've got there... Good lord.
When we had been dating for a couple months, things got really hectic with school (we both went to MIT), and I'd decided that we should consider taking a little break since we were both so wrapped up with things and it felt like we just didn't have the time we needed to dedicate to the relationship. All my friends prepped me for him to be really mad, and that I just had to stick to my "script" about how we both came to MIT for school first and foremost, and that hopefully things would work out with us in the long run (which they clearly did) but that we just didn't have the time for a relationship right now. He's a big, athletic guy, so literally all my friends prepped me for him to argue with me about it and to be angry. Instead, he started crying. Sobbing, really. Which, I was SO not prepared for. And pretty much I immediately started backpedaling since he clearly really cared about the relationship a lot. The crying shocked me so much, but now I know that if either one of us is the emotional one, it's him. And, really, it's quite sweet.

I'm gonna ask a very ... probably .. obvious question. WHAT is s*x like with it??? (Sorry if that's super personal!)
Holy Sh!T! I pierced my own tongue in high school and thought that was, ummm... ballsy. He must have a high pain tolerance.
On our first date getting him to talk was like pulling teeth for the first hour or so. Once I got him to talk (I talk a lot so now I can't blame him), I found out he dropped out of his undergrad engineering program and moved to Nantucket to be an arborist. He lived in a VW bus on the beach. (In my mind that = van down by the river.)
Luckily I got over this when he went on to tell me he did finish school and was currently a law student. If I knew then, what I know now about dating a law student...
He does still talk about that VW a lot and I think there is a part of him that is going to always be tree hugger wishing he was living on a beach.
MH is a musician, and when we first started dating his schedule of being out of town every weekend or longer took a little getting used to. Then I found a lot of great things about it, like having "me time" at the end of the work week and being able to have weekend nights with girlfriends.
He's been off the road for a few years now (which took its own getting used to after having my weekends to myself for 5 years), but is starting to tour again in August. He'll be gone for six weeks, which makes me very proud of him, but sad to have him away that long.

I'm glad YOU asked.....I was going to but I'm too chicken.
It's not really a whole lot different. I can feel a little extra pressure, but it's not - for me, anyway - the mindblowing extra sensation you hear about.

Not gonna lie ... that was a let down LOL. I was hoping you were going to regale us with tales so we could live a kinky-er s*x life through you
I like the new siggy. Your pup is too cute!

When I first met DH we were in Austria just traveling around. To me he was a bad @ss soldier that wouldn't give me the time of day. (I'm such a bookworm and science nerd.) I was shocked when he kept talking to me and had so much interest in me! Now I know... sure he's a soldier but he's kind of a nerd, too! I'm now used to his random outbursts of sciencey speculations on how things work. Although I do still feel bad if I don't know the answers!
This is too cute and totally made me laugh!
