In my previous life before coming back to Gods Country, I stuck to the rules. In my life prior to that and the one I am living now, I most definitely bend them as far as I think I can get away with, and sometimes a bit more than that too.

The only time I don't like rules is when the PC brigade get hold of them.

These replies are exactly what I had hoped for. I now have a better understanding of your natures.
What prompted me to ask was my OH. If he is the cook for the evening meal we always eat at 6.00 (on the dot). However last night he was about to dish up when he called to me and said "Do you mind if we eat in 30 mins? I have forgotten to take my medicine and it must be taken half an hour before food."
I was gobsmacked. I really don't think he has taken a risk in his life apart from marrying me and I do absolutely everything MY WAY if it doesn't hurt anyone else.Comment

Brengirl some medication does not mix well with food - I have one kind that makes me feel sick. One rule that your OH is probably wise to follow. Like drinking and driving!Whooops - now what are the dogs getting up to?Comment

I usually stick with Paganisms main rule " If it harm none, do as you will"
I sometimes rebel against conformity & obedience!

I really dont like being told what to do, never have done.
Perhaps thats why I consider myself quite bohemian!

I am feeling liberated but guilty at the moment, went down ten metres of road in an empty car park (with full visibility) against an arrow to get out of the place.

Hehe, yep! I actually worry about breaking rules (military upbringing or just neurosis I think!
) far too much, even the little ones.
Did me the power of good that did though - might even try and not walk down all the queue ropes in an empty post office one day!

Some rules I obey (speed limits for example) others I like to know what they are MEANT to be for, and obey the spirit, rather than the letter, of the rule (I supposed that is approximately what someone meant about pink elastic bands, not red tape)Flowers come in too many colours to see the world in black-and-white.Comment

depends on the consequences of the rule for me. If I'm going to into serious trouble for it, probably not!
As a teenage, and even now I still find out that I break rules on a regular basis without even trying but as no serious consequences have been meet, they probably weren't worth making in the first place
