I think that what most people are looking for in a relationship can't really be found there. If I may quote another mid-'80s icon, from her more recent work (what I call her post-Decade-of-Living-Dangerously oeuvre), "Happiness lies in your own hands". Don't ya think?


i think it's possible for some couples to share an entire lifetime without even getting that deep into their own desires and wants. i think some people have entire lifetimes they'll never visit, simply due to how they've been raised and because of the expectations placed on them. and really, truly, i think many of these people are genuinely happy, and they truly enjoy having a marriage because it's necessary in order to build a family, and that's what you're supposed to do, so don't go questioning it.

and really, that's not completely as fascist and pathetic as it looks plunked out in an internet forum. it's just a different way of looking at life and love and relationships.

what's more, this model i'm attempting to describe, i think has more to do with following generations of tradition than it does with trying to emulate fictional relationships passed on by the mass media.

i'm not saying this is an ideal state of marital bliss, but i do believe it exists, and if the happiness is real, i would consider it to be valid "love".


mad how come you are so smart mister!

Just sayin that "lots of women" do not love nerd guys.
[Edited 12/10/06 19:11pm]


The hot ones, we do.

And yes, nerds can be very physically good looking too. A nerd is not so much about their looks, like in the movies. lol

It's the "geeky" things they are into.


Most nerds are not good looking.

I think if i said all women were like that it would be generalizing. But most women want to be pursued and proposed to, etc,etc.
Dude, you do not know what most women want. There are at least a billion of us on the planet. How do you even fix your mouth to say you know what most of us want?

I for one want a house husband. nod

I want to pursue a man and have him stay home, raise the kids, cook, clean and iron.


If you are being honest you know that most women want that. Women rarely pursue men and propose to them.

So.incredibly.clueless.

Pretty much every hot, even considered "bad boy" guy I have dated was into so called "nerdy" stuff.

Hot, tough guy on the outside, total nerd on the inside.

Whatever you say. But most nerds are funny looking. Watch any show on Star Trek and Stars wars fans. Did you ever see that segment on Conan hung out at a Stars Wars Premiere. That nailed it. Most look like that.

No, you just said they were nerds. They can't be both. You must be into the minority of nerds.

If you think this is hot:



then, yes, you might think that.

Curious, Spatzowitz: if your bitch is that all of the "hot" women here are taken, what makes you think you'll have better luck in New York or L.A.? lol

(inspired by evenstar's post in the lust and love thread)

I had this housemate I knew in the biblical sense, and I knew he was moving away in the next month, so I said to myself I won't fall in love with him cause it's not really convenient. (He asked me to move with him, but I really didn't know him well enough.)

Anyway, on the last day I realised that I was so in denial, but I kept my feelings to myself and never told him. 12 years later I still dream about him. I cried my eyes out for about a day and then got back on my horse.

Did you ever manage it? How? Or is it really impossible?


IMHO, the thing to do w/ such a story is write a song about it.
