It's human nature, if you don't have a seperate place to go, then you are kinda forced to stay and argue (though I enjoy a good argument, I don't like arguing out of frustration)
Defensive? I don't think so. Cynical? Absolutely.
I'm kinda surprised at the number of people who want to be coupled -- especially the number of fellas --surprises me.

Nothing to do with wanting to be coupled.... it's this frame of mind that strikes me as ultra-defensive:
Honey, i wanna be with you, i wanna be with you forever, but... I just... well... I just wanna live on my own at the same time.

The point of marraige/engagement/myriad of other commited relationships is to share _the totality_ of your life.
you cant do that while being one step back.
I'm half cut. I accept no responsibility for my spelling/grammar - not that it's great anyway..
