America has this unfruitful competetive-combative attitude to everything. You could instead think of dating as a mutual cooperative process of finding out if you two should really get together. The hate and dumping and gloating and sex exploits don't maky any normal emphatic person happy deep down.
- angersock 13y agoYou could instead think of dating as a mutual cooperative process of finding out if you two should really get together. I like your world...let's live there instead. :(
- mattgreenrocks 13y agoI think I internalized this attitude early on, and I'm still trying to shed it. Are things better elsewhere? If so, where? I'm already an ambitious person, I'm just sick of thinking I have to make something of myself. (I'm taking responsibility for the last part, but being in a different environment might help too.)
- figglesonrails 13y agoI don't know about you, but I don't want to be in a zero-sum game with my future wife unless were on the same team. :D Treating the "dating game" as literally "game theory" game sounds like a rough start and not a fertile bed to plant seeds of lasting love built on mutual trust, compassion, etc.. /end romantic.
