I just moved in with my guy and how often does he expect me to "groom" and shave ? I can't reasonably do that everyday ???

I don't think any man would expect you to shave everyday, but why is "groom" in quotes? Like what does it mean to "groom" everyday? That perplexes me. I'm almost as puzzled by those quotation marks as I am by the fact that people still religiously watch Grey's Anatomy.

I think most guys would just expect their woman not to be a sloppy, unkempt slob. I think it goes both ways too. No woman wants to live and be with a man who's not keeping himself together. Especially after you move in together and you learn eachother's habits and general aesthetic tendencies, which can become disturbing.

I think I've digressed.

Now, if by "groom" you mean taking care of any spiderwebs that might be dangling out of your cotton drawerz, then yes perhaps he might not be too happy with that. But then again, why on earth would you need to shave that everyday? What kind of hair growth do you have going on? Do Bosley and Rogaine know? I'm guessing that if you take care of that a couple of times a week, you'll be alright. Why not just get waxed and call it a day - or a few weeks rather. Seems like a win-win for everybody involved. You don't have to worry about it until its time to get waxed again and your boyfriend doesn't have to worry about coughing up a hairball.

But no, I don't think any reasonable man would expect you to "groom" and shave everyday (unless that's not what you mean by "groom").

Did you two just meet the day before moving in? How much were you grooming before? It would seem strange if before you moved in, you were "grooming" yourself on a daily basis, but after you moved in you stopped.

Or are you talking about him? I expect to have my woman cut my hair every two days. Not all guys are the same ;)

For the other ladies, I find Veet's wax strips comfortable, comes with a pretty decent preparation numbing spray. I just cut them in narrower strips for better tolerance and control. But living in the same space could make it difficult.
