| 509520 | 2007-01-23 03:05:00 | As to what constitutes a relationship - here are some factors: • How long you have lived together • Whether you live in the same house all or part of the time • Whether you have a sexual relationship • Whether you mingle your finances • Whether one of you supports the other financially • Who owns your property, how you use it and how you got it • Whether you are both committed to a shared life • Whether you have children and who looks after them • Who does the housework • Whether other people see you as being in a relationship No. There is one and only one true measure of whether you are in de facto relationship. Who controls the TV remote. You do - it's casual thing. She does - you're hooked and might as well just give her the money, car keys and other necessities right now and stop pretending. |

Or you have the TV remote but she has the DVD/VCR remote? ;) |

To test this out rent lots of romantic comedies. This should result in romantic moments and leave the remote in your hand. The rent the Die Hard Trilogy. If the remote is promptly removed from your hand, and she doesn't let you go to the video store without her in tow next time, then congratulations, you're in a de facto relationship .... |
