@Vasilia "And being popular is not really a problem."
I'm not sure that I'm "popular"; but I know that when girls
think you are popular it's hard to have a LLTMBR with them, since they often start thinking that you have many other secret girlfriends, and similar jealous thoughts... unless she enters into a relationship with me out of mere personal ego and pride.
@jaamkie "expressiveness doesn't necessarily equate to depth of feeling"
This seems like a nice wisdom quote, but... I'm not sure:
How else can you understand whether there
is any depth of feeling?
@Angela
Angela, I'm from continental Europe and I feel there's a large difference in the way we explore life. From what I gathered, my Anglophone counterparts start "sewing the wild oats" in college and university, around 19-25, whereas most of the people in my microcosm did so around middle school and ending in high school (14-19) and normally become like meditating monks at university.
Yes, we also have many parties at university, but generally that's for those... who didn't have fun previously perhaps :P I'm not entirely sure, just guessing.
I have friends who didn't go to university who
married at 19 or 20. I don't know whether those marriages will last long but for the moment they seem to go pretty well.
But what I know for sure is that I haven't really had a long LLTMBR yet (my longest was perhaps 4-5 months) and I would like to
try. I
don't feel compelled or forced to do so, but I merely want to
experiment something new.
I'm fed up with changing all the time and meeting new girls (not even rich-white-conservative girls), want to try something steady for a change - and I also would like to commit myself to upholding such a relationship.
Just a try, nothing compulsory
