Funnily enough, I was just watching the old Dr Who episode with this in it the other day.

Bigger, but a somewhat wooden atmosphere.

Late I know but maybe for the next podcast (on behalf of a friend):

Dear Gareth,

I am really confused with my relationship now. I am a 28 year-old-girl and bf [boyfriend] is one year older than me. We are both serious about our relationship and want to settle down soon. However, I get confused sometimes and am not sure if he is the right one for me.

We have been together for three years and bought a house together recently. I know I always want a mature man like lots of other girls, who can take care of me and take the responsibility. Bf is not romantic at all, but he is nice to me. He has strong opinions. There are lots of times he would say it's up to me but, once I have made a decision, he would make some negative comments.

For instance, when I wanted to change the bedroom door position because it's not easy to open, he said it's not doable. When he couldn't convince me (he's not a builder or not even a handy man), I suggested we get some professional opinions. However, he said he wouldn't trust the builders because they could make everything happen as long as we can pay more. Even if I found a builder to get some quotes, he would doubt if this person was trustworthy. I feel like he's living in his own world, doesn't want to hear others' opinion, but insists on his.

There was a time when I made the decision on the purchase of a new sofa, because he said it's up to me. He again pointed out all the negatives - the design, the material, the colour. Trust me, it's not a bad sofa! His reason is, he was not disagreeing but just wanted me to see the negatives so I wouldn't regret the purchase in the future.

There are also lots of things that need to be arranged for the house, which he never thought of. He said he's too busy with work and keeps leaving things for a few days, a few weeks, until I get annoyed and keep reminding him and get onto it myself. I have a full time job as well but wouldn't mind doing/arranging lots of things, but he never seems to appreciate it. When I talked to him about this, he would go 'are there many things to do?' He needs a reminder for everything, paying his own bills, booking a WOF for his car, signing documents, taking our cat to the vet and so on.

I know men are not detail-oriented, but I do expect him to take some responsibility, or at least not make a negative comment when I do something, or make a decision after saying it's up to me. I know every couple has problems and once you live together it's not going be a fairytale. Are these just normal couple issues? Am I too fussy or still dreaming for a perfect man? Can Gareth tell me what's going on, please?

Thanks a lot!

Dear Sam

"Thanks" for your questions.

Writing random words for the DP sports section does not consititute a full time job. Get a hair cut and find a real job.

As for you and your BF - harden the f*ck up. Ask him straight up "Dave - do you really respect me or are you just using me to get at Ricki 'cos he was a better AW then you ever were?"

BTW - these are not normal couple issues - your BF is a complete t*sser and you could do so much better - maybe that nice lad Danny or even Billy (he has a heart of gold deep down). However you are a bit fussy and I don't think you will ever find the perfect man - mostly because you are a bit of a knob yourself.

Hope this helps.
Gareth

J82, think you've got too much time on your hands

serious question, is there a limit to the amount of sponsorship the club can receive either in dollar terms or in the number of companies that would like to sponsor the nix?

Obviously it's too late for the poddy but a question for another time.

Actually, I did want to ask why we can't hear Phoenix City more often.

I mean seriously, it's pretty f**king obvious it's the missing piece in the jigsaw, despite all the other bollocks that gets talked in this forum.
Can the 'At the Stadium' song please be banned from all Phoenix games?

Bah thought of this too late, would have been a good chance to ask if they were seriously looking at investing in the Hurricanes, and if it would affect the funding for the club.
