Anything about relationship! Feel free.

Are you in a relationship? Is it serious? How long has it been? Any tips for people not in a relationship?

I'm currently pursuing a girl right now and it's going great. I met her at work and she's amazing really.

Im in a relationship with a girl, but we aren't boyfriend/girlfriend yet.

Tomorrow we are going on a date, but it will be the last time I will be able to see her until after summer. It really sucks because I really like her and she's the only girl to actually like me.

I've been engaged for like 2 years but its not really going anywhere. We've lived together for like 3 years. We love each other AND hate each other. Also he eats my popsicles.

Tips might be, find someone who's about to be homeless and then give them a home. Like in your home home. With your parents and family. Totally worked on me. His mom's my best friend.


You know what? This isn't about your feelings. A human life, with all its joys and all its pains, adding up over the course of decades, is worth far more than your brain's feelings of comfort or discomfort with a plan. Does computing the expected utility feel too cold-blooded for your taste? Well, that feeling isn't even a feather in the scales, when a life is at stake. Just shut up and multiply.

Congratulations on the engagement! Why are you putting off marriage?

I can't afford a divorce.

I mean I could once. I spent the money on alcohol. He is okay with this. He had some alcohol too.

^ uh ok I guess if you're even thinking about divorce, getting married is not a good idea.


I'm in a good relationship with my best friend, been romantic for about a year now. We first made contact here on PC (back in 2009) so we've been long distance. On Sunday I'll finally bring him home to my own country and we'll start our lives properly together at last. c:

Married got me into the country Rika.

That's all I needed.

Edit: I thought he'd be alright when I married him. Totally didnt expect him be so mean.

i'm not in a relationship, but i am talking to someone currently online. we've been talking for about almost a month i think. they're very nice and supportive and very understanding. we can always talk to each other and we have a lot of common interests which is good. i don't know if i will ever be in a relationship with them (because of my own issues i am working on currently), but i do at least appreciate their friendship and them being there for me.

Been in mine for 3 and a half-ish years. It's been amazing. Not sure where it's going from here, though. For a year-ish recently we were doing it long distance and while it was fine and we didn't run into any problems, we both decided we'd not want to do it again. In September we'll both be going quite different ways and distance will become a real issue for the long term, so... we don't know if realistically we want to carry it on. I think we're up for trying but knowing how we felt after the last time we went long-distance, we can't really see it working out. So, as much as we both love this relationship, it's a little bit uneasy at the moment.

It's a shame really since yeah, it was getting quite "serious" (or at least, as serious as it can be at this sorta stage), and in the future we'd both have wanted to take it a bit further we think. Maybe that'll still happen, but it's really hard to say at the moment.

Re: tips for people not in relationships, none. "Dating advice" is a dumb concept. There are literally billions of people out there who you could end up with, and there's no one formula that fits all - or indeed, many - of them. Just try whatever and if it doesn't work then you and the other person didn't match at the time.

That's good to hear! Good for you.

Not going to say anything except big hugs for comfort. People aren't always who we thought they were.

Tips for people not in a relationship: cheating is never okay. If that happens, whether you do it or the other, get out.

Not in a relationship. I love someone, but I'm confused about which way I mean and there's many thing stopping me from committing or trying (age gap & long distances away,) so I just let my feelings sit and stay the way they are until I act upon them or get over them.

& I've harbored feelings for the person for about two or three years now...but I definitely have a lot holding me back.

Yeah I'm in a relationship. Since late June 2011. It's been a bit rough lately since we're both dealing with some mental health issues right now, but we're helping each other out and it's going fine. Been long distance and I'm trying to sort my own life out before making any other big changes. Hopefully soon! ...Because the distance is getting tiring lol. But I'll make sacrifices and be patient if it means being together in the long run.

having poor mental health is very difficult in a relationship. It's a good thing both of you knows how to handle it as there are some people who just don't get it. Actions will result for the other to sink deeper in their own hellhole. Kudos to you guys. hope you be happy. :)
