This generation sucks at long-term relationships Just check out divorce rates in the US and observe of briefness of most high school/college relationships. Then there's the hookup culture and the fact that bovine droppings like [url=http://www.cnn.com/2014/01/28/living/online-dating-part-time-relationship]this[/url] exist on our planet. A lot of people in this generation either just suck at choosing partners, or they just don't work hard enough with their partner. I seriously hope you guys don't fall into the aforementioned categories.

18 and parents wont let me have girlfriend Not gonna go over too many details, but here are the key points: * I'm 18, she's 17. * We've been friends for 2 years, but I broke out of the friend zone with her fairly recently. * Now official BF/GF, but my parents are forbidding me from having a relationship in general * Parents have an enormous history of being overprotective. So, what can I do to convince my parents that there's nothing wrong with having a girlfriend? They think my grades will slip because she's gonna be some "huge responsibility", but me and her respect eachother's space for studies. They think I'm gonna do raunchy things with her, but me and her have already talked about this and agreed not to. Hell, they won't eve

Be honest, how much do looks matter? I hear all these white-knights saying that "looks don't matter". I believe they really do to some level, because if two people had the same personality/compatibility and only one of them had a more attractive physical appearance, you would obviously gravitate towards the person who's more physically attractive. The simple question I have for [b]you[/b] is how much do they matter? That is, keeping in mind that everyone's personality deviates.

To the guys that complain about the friendzone What if I told you that friendzoning is bull because girls aren't machines that you put kindness coins into until sex falls out? Quit being some selfish, self-proclaimed 'nice guy'. Quit trying to force a relationship from a well-developed friendship that could break if you keep your selfish hopes up. Quit vilifying women for exercising their right to say 'no'. Quit hoping on some lost cause and be glad you are still friends with her.

Female friend starts ignoring me out of the blue So about a year and a half ago, I became friends with a girl, around my age, who was very fun to hang out with during my high school junior year. We've shared several great laughs together, along with some of my other friends. Then about a month ago, moving on towards our senior years, I post some vague and depressing status on Facebook, she asks me what happened. Seeing how we were gonna hangout along with my other friends at some random carnival over the weekend, I just decided I'll tell her then since it's a bit personal, and I trust her. Weekend comes, we have some good laughs, and when I'm about to depart, I just hug all of my friends goodbye, including her. It just came across my mind t

Religion threads in a nutshell Topic is usually something that sets the stage for a flame war, or maybe it's some casual question like "what religion are u?" or something (doesn't really matter). 1st page: "lol, flame war incoming", some guys claim to be religious or atheist then just leave the thread. Some other atheist, or whoever, decides to add fuel to the fire by questioning another person's beliefs. (several pages later) 11th page: Various paragraphs/walls of flame everywhere because the posters have nothing better to do with their lives but participate in arguments with Anonymous Internet denizens. Seriously, cut it with the religion threads. All they do is bring more unnecessary hate on Basil. :|
