Whoa! No booze? No internet? Big culture shock! You're allowed shoes though, right?

Shoes, yes....shoes in the house. :neutral: You know Asians usually don't wear shoes in the house, right? Well, we have house shoes or slippers, so the floors wouldn't get dirty. Let's see....no smoking, no booze, no internet, no T.V. in the beginning. We do now but with an antennae, so we have some of the basic channels. We also have these local channels. However, the only channel I ended up watching is this oldies channel. Let's see....I watched "Three's Company," "One Day At A Time," "Andy Griffith Show," "Emergency," etc.

I'm out.

You knew all this going in?

Whe s^

Do you have any contact with your family or former friends? Can you come and go as you please? Do you have your own transportation and ability to do as you like?

No booze, no smoking, no Sheldon!

Guys, guys, guys...clearly, the sex is *awesome*. Also, Antenna TV is a lot of fun after.

We have antenna TV, and it does not suck too bad.

Hehe.....Sorta. I promised to quit smoking but must have my alcohol. Apparently, I can drink when offered or available somewhere. However, he really prefers not to have it readily in the house. I do have my own car, which I can go wherever I want. I assume so anyways. He always said it's safer for me if he's around, so he prefer to go with me. But when he's at work, who's going to stop me from going where I want? Walmart doesn't have to brand of wine I like, so one day soon when Bruce is at work, I'm going to drive to this other grocery store to get some. I already told him there will be issues if he won't let me drink. Out of respect for him, I'm just not buying any in front of his face. :D

No internet, no T.V., no smoking....I knew all this going in. I usually don't drink, so I don't have too much problem with him not liking it.

Oh yeah, I found CBS last night and watch "Blue Bloods." :D As for the radio, I found FM radio. I thought his radio only have AM but it does have FM. I finally got my mp3 player with a radio and wireless speak shipped to me. So, I can and do blast my own music on sometimes. :D

...

Safer from what?

Red Next, Alley Gaters, Miner Tees, and Sept Rate friends, not to mention Corn Trolls. :cool:

He's just being protective. Some of the neighborhood aren't as safe as others, like anywhere else in the country. I'm a bit naive too. And being very tiny doesn't exactly scream "stay away from me." I was very sheltered and was chauffeured a larger part of my life. Only the last few years that I started driving myself. Even then, I prefer my sister to drive or anyone else other than myself. I am horrible with directions and am not a very good driver. The roads here are narrow, curvy, and lots of up and down. It's a bit scary for me to drive. He gave me a car, and I use it to drive myself to his work place. He is as comfortable as I am, and right now, I'm not too comfortable driving myself around in a strange city. He expresses his concerns, but I've never felt him to be restrictive.

You've GOT to get yourself a motorcycle! I loved sewing those curves together while living in NC.
