Hey Lifers,

Are you wearing eye shadow? Apparently we are not fitting in with the youth anymore, but we certainly have the 'tired eyes' look covered!

Britt is sad that she's missing out on some family memories. Laura's kids picked their cat, but Matt has rules and we're not sure if it will be cat or cats...

Our vibes for the week:

Britt - Tide stain remover pen

Keeshia - Bali body Face tan serum (and Griffins Marvels Golden Gaytime Biscuits from Coles)!

Laura - And Juliet Theatre Show

Then we jump into your questions!

I went out for a first date with a guy for a drink! I drove there so I was expecting to have 2 glasses of wine MAX over a possible 2 hours. He sat down, said we would be getting a bottle of wine - not even asking about my preference. I told him, I would prefer a glass as I was driving and he said “no that’s definitely going to change. You’ll be drinking more and staying for the bottle and eventually we will go back to yours.” I immediately felt uncomfortable and was very shut off from wanting to get to know this person which I eventually voiced. After I finished my one glass, (he on his third) I very respectfully said that I would be heading off and to be polite I said, let me know your bank details so I can transfer you for half the bottle. This morning I woke up to his bank details and he told me the bottle was $90! This is probably one of the worst dates I have ever been on so how much do I send him if any?

My boyfriend of 15 months is sweet, kind, generous and patient. I, on the other hand, am passionate and fiery. I crave excitement and stimulation but find my relationship very comfortable and complacent. My boyfriend has a good job and studies, but is happy to live a fairly simple life and doesn’t push himself too hard. Despite this, he always goes above and beyond to make me feel special and loved. It hurts so bad to admit but I find myself feeling a bit bored and underwhelmed, almost as if I’m missing that spark. I know (from you guys) better than to dream about the greener grass or go chasing butterflies and thrills but I can’t help but feel as if there’s a relationship out there that would make me happier. Am I being unappreciative? What should I do; Stay with the sweet boy who is comfortable and safe? Or find someone who can match me intellectually and who I feel more chemistry with?

Someone I follow posted trying to set her husband's best friend up on a date - she listed qualities of him etc. Fast forward, I’m texting this guy and we go on a first date. We both have busy schedules which are opposite which means we only share a few messages a day (I’m a fitness instructor so work mornings/nights). After not speaking to him for a whole day (he might be ghosting me) I accidentally sent my location on my way to work. MY LIVE LOCATION AT 5 AM in the morning!!! When he hasn’t even replied to my last text.How do you recover from this? I am mortified. I wanted to see this guy again 

Can you guys settle a debate between me and my boyfriend? Is peeing in a pool gross? He thinks the ocean or river is fine but a pool is too far
