Annoying and not very attractive. Is she to contrast with the other women
on the show?

Didn't that show bite the shark a couple of seasons ago?

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.

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 ...

They really made me lose respect for boss lady on that one.

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.

People use rollers to _straighten_ their hair? Seriously, I thought
it was to induce curling.

(Insert dumb Winter Olympic joke here.)

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

Which one would that be?

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. :)

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.

Yeah, having a past marriage would be another thing that would affect
one's views on moving in together, and it's understandable why living
together might be preferable to another marriage for some folks.
