Well, given the outcome of last night's episode, maybe she won't be on anymore. Then he can go flirt with that cute FBI newbie he was teamed with last week.

Hopefully that's where this is all headed, otherwise I have NO idea what the purpose of last week's show was.
But, really, moving in together means everything to women and nothing to men?? Sounds like somebody was trying to work out their therapy by inflicting it on us ... that, and the caste system line.

Not always no. Sometimes it's reversed - men see it as the first step to permanence and the women don't.

That was a bit odd yeah. Class more than caste, but still...

Sure, because people are people, but the show says all women are one way and all men the other ...

She's about the only character on the show I like. She's *supposed* to be
irritating and does a good job of it, unlike, say, Angela, who is supposed
to be lovable and irritates me no end.

Oh, heck yes. Granted, there are plenty of exceptions, but I would say
that moving in together means much, *much* more to the average woman
than it does to the average guy. Not even close.

I think that they nailed it. And I say that as someone who leans ever so
slightly towards being an exception to the rule (much more so now than
when I was younger), so I really don't think that I'm projecting here.

I'm not average I guess, I see it as a way to share expenses... cheaper for both with benefits. But then, sometimes I think like a guy.

I never had to use the rollers to straighten my hair, it's that way naturally. And there was only one roommate....

When they're 3" across, that'll straighten it. While adding a little lift and volume.

I suppose there's an entire range of "moving in together" scenarios, and
many of them are nothing beyond a practical consideration. In the
current context, however, I thought that there was an emotional and
romantic component to things, or else the entire question would seem to
be pointless. And when that romantic component is present, I think that
(in the vast majority of cases, at least) the woman looks at moving in
together much differently and much more seriously and much more in terms
of a commitment than the man does.
Or maybe I'm just a pig and I'm projecting a whole bunch here. :)

Should the rest of us just assume that you're gonna be retiring to your
bunk for a while?

No in general, I think you're right. More women probably look at it as a committment, and some guys do too. And I'm not totally lacking in the emotional or romantic side of it either. I've already been married and not sure I want to repeat it again, so just see long term 'living together' as an alternate.
