    Default Should I split up with her?

    I came home from work today and found this on the browser, I think it's all over but I just can't find a way to tell her

    Using the American spelling of metre? Yeah, that's dump-worthy.

    If you have any children you should go for a paternity test. You can't trust American women much less ones who can't realize that the metric system works by variables of 10.

    Check her browser history too, for googling inches to cm

    She may be splitting up with you, after some comparative shopping.

    Nothing wrong with fact checking, conversion can be difficult and also depends what you were raise up with. We focused on the metric system but I know some places still use the imperial for them it is possible that they would need a refresher

    I honestly don't know how much a metre is either. Although I learned this in school I ended up using inches way more, even in the school (ie shop class). So I'm about 6'1" but I don't how to say that in metres.

    I was about to move this to the personal help and advice, but this is a bit of a joke right?

    Well if you also find a "how many centiliters in a liter"-search in the next couple of weeks it would seem like the only sensible option, yes

    Not if they're overweight. I heard it's a serious problem now.

    Sex burns calories, that vaunted American drive may be overrated.
