It could just be you like the inherent risk involved. The idea that you might get caught can add a bit of thrill to proceedings. Those sorts of relationships tend to follow the whole concept of "a candle that burns twice as bright, burns half as long", but if that doesn't bother you, then go for it: it's better that you're honest with yourself.

More genuine? In ways, yes. If both parties are up front right away about what is going on. In other ways, no.

I have horrible commitment issues since my last relationship though too if I forgot to add. I can't seem to not think whoever i go out with will stab me in the back or leave me. Anything I can do about this?
 
@fortbo

Any updates?

You have a plan for St. Valentine's Day, right?

I surprised her with flowers, chocolate and a bear tonight. We're going to the city together tomorrow.

Great to hear
:D:tup:

As for me..

Nobody has called my attention, yet. :)
 
Well... Im getting back with my ex. I ended the relationship back like in January of '14. Thats the news.

Shes coming over tomorrow after work.
 
hardcore chilling on Vday for me. I'm too broke to spend any money on broads. I just moved too, so finding an interest in this fast would be kinda unatural. (excuses) -____-
 
Might be a really bad valentines day for me mates. I don't think I made it with the girl I was interested in.
 
I'm usually one to ignore Valentines as just an ordinary day of the calendar. I've actually never been in an relationship and throughout my years I've never been interested in a single Girl or Boy. Not even close. It actually feels a bit odd thinking about it. Everyone I know has at least had a crush by my age (16) but never have I? I never feel any moments to be with someone and would rather be alone.

My curiosity on this has peaked a lot but I don't know what's up with me :confused:.
 
give it time. You're only 16.

Me, I am going to give my girl a nice bunch to old pink roses :P

However, everyone I met has had at least 1 crush. I'm thinking it's something to do with my sexuality which I have no idea either or not but I just can't imagine myself in a relationship throughout my life, it feels more like a life commitment than being in love with someone but thats because I've never been in love. It just feels very odd.

What do you mean by "my sexuality"? Are you questioning your sexual orientation or preferences at this point?
 
Yes I am starting to question my sexual orientation.

Are her parents strict meaning they don't want her dating anyone because she's too young, or is it a religious thing or something else? One of the traps you can fall into is always being attracted to girls who are unavailable. They have boyfriends, they live far away, they don't want to date, their parents are too strict etc. etc.. I think subconsciously it's a way of avoiding getting into a relationship while kind of feeling you're in one. Not saying that's you, just something to be aware of.

It's ok to be proud of yourself for overcoming this hurdle. It's a big step. What I would do is ask her to do things with you, starting at school or just after or before school, so that her parents aren't an issue. See if she'll eat lunch with you, study with you, pretend you need help in a subject she's good in (even if you don't need help), walk her home etc. Removing the parents from equation and if she's willing to spend time with you that's a good sign. At some point, you have to overcome the parent issue, but first things first.

By strict parents I meant like academically. They made her go to extra math classes, bed time at 10, phone in kitchen at night, piano lessons, etc.

Been a while and some things has happened. On Friday before Valentine's Day, I asked her if she wanted to go see a movie but she never saw the text until Sunday.(we had a week off from school the week after valentine's day) We didn't text much after that until Wednesday when she texted me first for the first time and we texted for a long time. After that we've been texting everyday a lot and it's been fantastic. We texted about a lot if things such as music and general stuff and TV shows. She suggested Supernatural and I ended up finishing before her because I got so sucked into it lol. I suggested How I Met Your Mother to her and she's almost done with it and she loves it. I'm going to start catching up on The Walking Dead because she says she doesn't have any friends to talk to about it.

I'm not entirely sure why she suddenly started texted this much but I definitely don't mind. It's awesome. I think she probably told her friend that I asked her out and maybe her friend's encouraging her or something. I'm just over thinking like usual.

Today in school, we got paired up in French to do verbal exercises but we ended up going off topic and talked about other stuff.

Things are definitely looking positive for a change which is nice.

All good news.:cheers: The strict parents are a toughie though. Your best bet is probably to ingratiate yourself with them eventually, let them see what a standup dude you are. I wouldn't wait too too long though before you start sniffing around about a date or doing something outside of school. Perhaps something school related and study oriented, like a study date:idea:💡 would be a good way to break the ice. If you keep getting denied and she sticks to texting only, at some point you've got to confront the elephant in the room about dating, her parents etc. But one step at a time. Keep up the good work:tup:👍

Yes I am starting to question my sexual orientation.

Sorry I missed this, you didn't quote me and I haven't been here in a while. You don't have to answer if you don't want to, I know this stuff is really personal, but are you really questioning your sexual orientation, or are you mostly sure what your preference is, but afraid to say it out loud (so to speak) and not sure what to do about it?

It's nice to read the last bit of your post, too much "texted" and "texting" was worrying me

Should've quoted, my bad.

I don't usually have personal things and quite open so its fine by me ;).
I'm quite in the area of questioning my sexual orientation. It started when I realized everyone in my group has been in a relationship. I started wondering if there was a problem with me but realized, I never had a single moment of getting in a relationship or sex unlike my peers and others around me. It is quite confusing me.

Don't think too much about it. Some people just tend to get interested in the opposite (or same) sex sooner, others later. Also, having a crush on or wanting a relationship with someone also hinges on the other person's character and personality (I'd say). As such, not having met someone who tickles your fancy yet doesn't have to mean much regarding your sexuality.

We talk a lot between classes at school. We didn't have school last week so we could only text.
 
Not much to really comment on about my relationship right now, but today marks my 8 year Anniversary with my Girlfriend:) it was a bumpy road but we work out our problems. It's barely 6:30 AM and I'm already having a good day, and I expect to have a good weekend as thats when we are actually going to be celebrating, since we both work full time.

I think she's stuck with me :P

Everyone works at a different pace. I didn't really start chasing girls till I was 19 and had my first girlfriend when I was 20.

I never really had a problem with it, and I sort of made up for it instead in chasing nice cars, a habit I've had since I was a wee lad xD
 
I guess it's time for me to start looking. I have one interest, but I think that may fall through. I look like a bum at the moment. Time to get dapper.

Any of you feeling down? Start lifting. Better posture, better mood, better feeling around the people you like. Ever since I started back up, I feel much better.

I feel so inclined to drink when I'm gathering with people so I don't know how I'd do on dates as of now. My ADD gets to me and I get extremely bored very fast. I guess I turn to drinking too because it gets rid of my OCD symptoms also.. Whatever, just gotta fight it.

Also, **** online dating.

I've recently found out she's been going out with a friend for the past month or so. 💡
 
Ok weird question I started a new job on a contract and there's this girl that I spent talking to basically all day. We talked about lots of stuff and it was good. Not that I want to ask her out straight away but since Im not going to be working there all the time I move around a lot how do I get to stay in contact with a girl at work without being creepy about it? This is an office job by the way. We seem to have a lot in common and I found it easy to talk to her.
