Tim's journal

cultural norms and the way the words are used. When you say boyfriend people still think something non-permanent, even through you might be using that word for lack of a better term. (and yes, a lot of this is based on tradition, culture and ideas that are outdated and we really need vocabulary to describe non-monogamous relationships)

and about why you can't be discreet about marriage? because then they will wonder why you hide it. :)
