Basically, since I've been actively anti-looking for the last fifteen years, there isn't much that wouldn't break a romantic relationship deal for me. The man and the relationship would have to be darned near perfect for me to even consider the idea, let alone carry it out. Plus I'm not attracted to the men who are attracted to me, and the men I'm attracted to wouldn't look at me twice [g].
What killed my last relationship was that there's no way to compromise between two extremely geographically-oriented people when one's Place is 2000 miles from the other's Place. He wouldn't leave Ohio (after hoodwinking me into moving there "temporarily"), I needed to come home to the Pacific Northwest. I suppose we could have moved halfway in between to Nebraska...
That way we both could have been miserable.
Other than that, after almost sixteen years of being on my own, I have lost whatever ability I had for the compromises of day-to-day living, let alone the big items.
And I'm happy that way.
