That's not what my 2nd grade teacher told me; I can have everything I want, that's what the education system taught me!Lavabug said:I have a pretty face, but I'm flat broke. You can't have everything in life.

dirk_mec1 said:Ok, how about this:
All (feminist) women in my environment tell other women: "You don't need a man to be happy, living your life to the fullest and be independent makes you happy!"
Lavabug said:I retract the first statement, apparently 48 women on social dating sites concur I'm ugly! There goes what was left of my self-esteem... and my account. :P
That time energy and resources is mostly spend by men...daveyrocket said:Yeah, I think they're wrong about that. Considering the amount of time, resources and energy most people put into finding a life partner,
That does not mean that this holds for all pepole :)and the number of studies out there that conclude that married people are happier than single people,
Maybe somebody should make another paper regarding this subject.I'd say that statement doesn't stand up to empirical verification.

Random fact, my wife and I were married for over a year before she decided to like me. It took me nearly dying =(.To me, a relationship is a friendship first and foremost. Sure you can love someone, but do you LIKE them.
HayleySarg said:Hmm, I don't agree to the OP. My first point being that not everyone equates marriage or even children, with the ideal bond. In fact, I'm not planning to get married for quite some time, until it becomes financial advantageous to do so. My boyfriend feels the same way. Being secular has it's benefits. We see it as a big hoopla about nothing.
I didn't accept my boyfriend's advances becuase he was attractive. He was the first guy I've ever met outside of other physics majors that when I said "I study physics" he was entirely honest. He said "I don't know much about physics, but if you listen to my talk of history, I'll listen to your talk of physics"
Rather than "Oh, I'm so sorry"
He's an okay looking guy, but he was unemployed for 2 years of our relationship. Did I leave, even though I'm an average female who could "find better"? Absolutely not. To me, a relationship is a friendship first and foremost. Sure you can love someone, but do you LIKE them. That's the real question.
Money doesn't make you more likable. Looks don't make you more likable. Those things make you more tolerable, more approachable--but at the end of the day, it's what's inside. If you can't be silly, talk for hours, hold one another and support one another, then what are you? And here's a newsflash, even "ugly" people can laugh and cry and smile.
I'm sorry about your difficulties in dating. But to make sweeping generalizations about the playing field with little more than anecdotal evidence and bias will get you no where.
Cheers
