stevrms2012 Lehigh Acres, FL 37, joined Jun. 2012	Relationships are harder now because conversations became texting, arguments became phone calls, feelings became subliminal messages, getting sex became easy, the word "love" is used out of context, insecurities became a way of thinking, getting jealous became a habit, trust is hard to come by, being hurt became natural & leaving became the only option. Sad but true, so if you have something that's worth it..don't take it for granted, fight for it & don't let it go. But realize it has to be worth it TO YOU.

I seriously looked back at the way it was and is now. Quite honestly dont see much of a difference outside of the prevelance of tats and piercings. Now I have becomed more attuned to the type of a relationship my friends have and other people outside of my friend zone. Guess my age plays a factor here cause I became more aware and judgemental about single mommies in our society. The new grads are still struggling with getting a good job and the economy is about the same. People with no ambition are still out there mooching off the system. Being stupid just propegates itself.

ohdannyboy59 Arlington, TX 98, joined Sep. 2012	I think one of the biggest things is this has become a very "me" oriented society and one of instant gratification. We want our relationships as fast as our microwaved dinners, and we toss yesterday's people out of our lives as quickly as we cam make a grab for the new technology. Generally speaking, of course.

Sad but true, so if you have something that's worth it..don't take it for granted, fight for it & don't let it go. But realize it has to be worth it TO YOU. I trust easily and I don't get jealous, but the rest is pretty spot on. We live in an instant gratification world. If your SO isn't cutting it, it's easier to leave than to work on your issues or sacrifice/compromise for each other. For some, it is easier to leave than to swaller their pride. In another thread about what's wrong with traditional dating, I posted an excerpt from an article where the author states we go on first dates, and before allowing chemistry and familiarity to develop, if we don't "feel" something right away, we go home from the date, get online and start looking at new profiles. In parts of the article I didn't post, the author explained how he worked with someone for three years before, near the end of those three years, he realized she was the one for him. It took three years of them spending considerable time together before "chemistry" and the "spark" happened. That is part of what is missing with online dating for some people. In the old days, you'd hang around with someone for a long time sometimes before sparks start to fly. However, now, if sparks don't fly over that first cup of coffee, people walk away and look for the next person to date, and when sparks don't fly again, they complain that dating sucks. I propose that it isn't dating that sucks. Its impatient people who suck at dating.

sofetch12 Willingboro, NJ 30, joined Nov. 2012	Nice post OP. I agree on just about all of it, and what just about everyone else had to comment with/on. We are programmed (looking at my generation) to believe that we deserve better, that something better will come along, never settle, and if it's not the way you want it to be - fix it or move on (in all different regards). Just look at us undergrads coming out of college with our Bachelors degrees. So many of us believe we deserve our dream job upon graduating. We're conditioned to believe that we worked hard in school for so long, that we deserve it and get it automatically. Sense of entitlement. Not always how it works out though. Takes even more time and hard work, and for many of us, nothing is just handed.

alls_fair Thorlákshöfn Iceland 97, joined May. 2011	My thoughts on relationships are decidely different than others... 1) Culture and society have little impact on my definition of relationships. I refuse to let it by virtue of refusing the tv and movie industry entry into my life... 2) Women are generally the ones clamoring for relationships. However, the women that are available in my dating pool are the ones that were NOT relationship material 20 years ago. And child bearing and divorce has NOT improved this any either... 3) What passes for relationships these days leaves more than a little to be desired. I have no interest in a building a household on what SHOULD be. Master's house is all about what is.

Very true...you should also add internet dating has given people more options and fewer people are willing to "settle" when they think there is something "better" OUT THERE.

claudius5 Petaluma, CA 67, joined May. 2009	Quote from leggsallover: Depends on the age group. Most people my age don't go along with the dating pool of the more modern types. Meaning, technology isn't our only mode of communication. We know how it is/was done, and this is NOT the only way. It's just the way we(some) have allowed it. No one has to give in to technology as a form of dating/communicating in a relationship. Now, here is a smart woman. We are the masters of our ship. It is what we make it. If I'm not mistaken it is called free will and doing what is right for us.

So, I should have accepted being treated very poorly, not having choices even if they affect me, being physically abused a few times in the marriage & him thinking it was okay, & constant emotional abuse? NO, I don't think so. Of course I don't think how my marriage was was the way a marriage is supposed to be. It is NOT how a marriage should be. Nothing wrong with me NOT accepting a marriage that was like that. [Edited 2/20/2013 7:02:07 PM ]

You can say what you think a marriage should be. If I say, I will end up leaving some things out but not purposely. But I think it takes two people to make the marriage work, & it takes them being unselfish. Each has to care enough about the other to help make it work. [Edited 2/20/2013 7:26:46 PM ]

I am done humping your posts now. I wasn't doing it to pick on you but rather to draw you out... What if I suggest that the thing they should care about is the household instead of the person??? My own humble opinion is that trying to build a relationship on emotions alone is a very dicey business. Peoples feelings change...sometimes often during the course of the day. The idea behind working for the household is that you have assigned top priority to something bigger than EITHER of you...
