it is nice every now and then to fuss over little details about yourself in the mirror and fret about things to say and oh no what if your hand will be sweaty when it reaches for hers or if tonight please god oh please!! is the night you will kiss her. it is nice every now and then to have to wait for her while she takes a shower and an impossibly long time putting on makeup, because you know it's all for you anyway and you're going to be too happy to care about delays as soon as she's bouncing about so beautifully beside you. it is always nice to see someone else's faults as inexplicably cute and quirky in a good way, and having the same done for you. it is nice to have a phone call waiting for you on late nights at work.

for most of us, it's a shame relationships can't stay as these surreal dreams forever. the rules for dating now are (almost absurdly) lax, we simply haven't met the right people, and/or are too young to be able/want to deal with the responsibility and bullshit that is forced upon older couples. i'm not ready for it now and probably won't be for a loooonnnngggggg time, but i really really cannot imagine anything more truly fulfilling than finding the right hand to your left and committing to each other in a final mature relationship.

i am hardly a romantic and this probably sounds super lame, but sometimes i feel as if everything i do to improve myself is to better serve this quite singular purpose.

Also, I think it was Chris Rock who said something similar... "Single and lonely, or married and bored."

Haha, maybe I just got miraculously lucky; but when my gf saw how much fun me & my friends had playing fighting games she immediately started playing too. Nine months later, she's always asking to go to the arcade after work so we can practice vs the good people there, my casual friends being too easy for her now xD

Definitely agree with Hot_Bid too. Exponentially happier and more driven now.

his view is that having a serious relationship with a woman degrades from your quality of life and makes you unhappy in general.

Vague question, not enough options on the poll. It depends on the woman, and the man.

I think it was best summed up by comedian Richard Jeni:

Would you rather be lonely, or annoyed?

Which I think hits the nail on the head. Some people love the freedom, some people hate being alone and want that other person there. Then again, he committed suicide, so take his words with a grain of salt.

Personally, I absolutely LOVE having a woman in my life, in fact, I would go so far as to say it's changed my life 180 for the better. Before I met her (currently my fiancee btw), my life wasn't the greatest... was kinda going no where, I felt like something was missing. Sounds like a line from a bad 3am infomercial, but it was kinda true. She really helped pull me out of my rut so to speak, and helped me change a lot of things for the better... I owe a lot to her actually. Not to say we don't have little fights or agree or all the time, and hell, there are times where I do miss my freedom a little bit... but honestly I wouldn't give it up for anything. I love where I'm at right now in my life; before her I could see nothing but brick walls around me, and now I see a clear path.

Again, sounds pretty cheesey but it's true.

it really just depends on weather or not you enjoy sex with multiple partners.

Less enjoyable. The insecure kids who base their lives off of relationships are fucking hilariously pathetic.
