dirty hippies

have you tried seeing a doctor about that lice shit, you could get crabs as well...unless you already have them....well just shave frequently, and take planty of showers. I would segest one a day if not two.

If you don't think you've done enough romantic things lately, instead of whinge about it, go do something romantic! Only a month isn't that big of a deal, anyway. It's not like you have to do something romantic every single week. As for lice, it happens. And actually, brushing it out of each other's hair is probably more romantic than you think. That's how monkeys bond, you know.

Actually, lice will choose clean hair over dirty hair, so "taking plenty of showers" probably wouldn't do much difference in that regard. Keeping it brushed, on the other hand, does help.

ok, has anyone stopped to consider that maybe the OP has a job? possibly as an elementary school teacher or something of that capacity? kids bring lice to school. lice happens. My fiance and I have diametrically opposed schedules. we've been together for 5 years. It's so not about romance. romance doesn't last and it can't be forced. It's about discovering those moments that are unique to your relationship- what keeps you coming back to that person; that in of itself is romantic.

sry, i also meant to say that it's not pathetic. it's everyday life and not a FML. shit happens.

Better lice than scabies? Try to be more romantic? And if you guys can't work it out, well, then you're obviously just bored with eachother and need to call it quits.

For some reason, I get a mental image of two apes sitting next to each other, picking bugs out of each others fur.

well, that's better than going to check for STD together... i think.

Which hair? Upstairs or downstairs? At least they weren't crotch crickets. Those suckers are persistent.
