Well, that generation went about marriage differently.
If something was broken, they fixed it. They didn't look around asking "who is going to fix this for us?"
Don't really know what point you're trying to make Flanz. People shouldn't get divorced if they're unhappy?
I really wasn't trying to spark a debate, it was a more general comment than that. It's my experience that the younger generations are much more likely to say "f*ck it" and give up than past generations.

..and I think Njed is more at issue with the fact that some stay together and never resolve their issues. It turns into economics, kids, and stability over happiness. Marriage should be a commitment, but sometimes it's hard to watch two people who can't even sleep in the bed.
So, you met her on Okcupid and yr surprised she's slightly insane? Drrrp. Plus, if yr bipolar too, what are you looking for, a therapist? And just because she has a child, you'd write her off? Maybe just stay in your cave there, McQuack.
I'm 26 years old and can barely take care of myself, so yes any girl with a child is a no go for me. And yeah a chick who also acts as a therapist is totally what I want haha.

Yep. I wasn't trying to start a debate or argument Flanzo. Heh, I know it's hard to switch from the Headliner thread mentality. Yesterday I punched a stranger who told me he heard Outkast are touring this year.

Yeah sometimes I just gotta pump the brakes a bit.
Also, to stay on topic, women with English accents could get me to kill for them. Not kidding. It's pathetic, really, but I become puddy in their hands. I'll be hanging out with a girl from London this weekend (my friend is going back to Africa so he's invited 3485385354 people to a sh*tty bar in Brooklyn, CAN'T WAIT) and I think I'm going to propose to her.
....Or just stare awkwardly from afar and then pretend something really, really interesting is on my phone's screen as soon as she looks at me.
Get a coin. Girl A is tails and Girl B is heads. Flip the coin, and as soon as the coin is in the air, you will realize which girl you would rather talk to.

Genius!
What happens when the coin lands on it's side? I've never dated casually but I kinda feel I'd need to go out with each of them at least once to see if there's anythin' there. But I have yet to get the nerve to ask either of them out so it may be a moot point.

Dan, you're awesome. Ask them both out and kick the tires. If they need references, I'm here.

Ugghhhh why do I torture myself? I had a huge crush on this girl for a really long time, and after like 2 years of us just being friends it started to turn into more only for her to back out when things started to develop more (this happened a few months back). Now every since then we are back to regular old friends at it sucks! She just asked if I wanted to carpool to a show next month with her and another mutual friend of ours. I'm living that ridiculous story of "friendzoned but don't want to stop being friends because something is better than nothing". Someone needs to come punch me. And bring me a bottle of whiskey.

So this is someone you really like?
Why wouldn't you want to spend time with them even if it's just in a friend capacity?

Because he went for the full relationship and it didn't go well? There's always going to be that rolling around in his head that he wants it to be more but it isn't.

Being friendzoned by someone you really care about, then hanging out with that person while in the friendzone is basically torturing yourself. All the things you like about that person will be right there for you to focus on, all the while you know you can't have what you really want.
It's not that you don't want to spend time with the person (you do, more than pretty much anything), you reach a point where you acknowledge what you're doing to yourself and try to avoid situations that put you in that position.
Banshee, I just removed myself from a situation like that. It was absolute torture for me. I cut off contact and am happier(?). It's still a daily struggle not to shoot her a text or something. Sorry man, it sucks.
You basically have to weigh not seeing/hanging out with the person vs. seeing them occasionally, knowing that they don't (and will likely) never/no longer feel the same way as you. I've been in that situation and I can say option two was 50x more painful.

I mean she is a really f***king cool girl. Even just to hang out with. But Henrik and Dave and everyone else nailed it. Even though we are awesome friends there is still the nagging that
A) I really like her
and even worse
B) We almost had a relationship, which is something I had wanted for a solid 2 years and then it fell through. It's like that bitterness of almost having what you wanted then not all the sudden. So even though we are great friends I'm still pissed at her for that.
