Oh so wise for one so young (compared to me you still qualify as a youngster). Consider a comment my future father in law once told me: long before I became interested in his daughter, "It's FAR better to remain single, than to get married and wish you hadn't!!!"
I can confirm this

LOL sorry for getting all sappy The Jesus :p
Don't apologise. If The Jesus wants to compete with my billy record, he needs to be schooled in sappiness :p

Indeed. And timely advice too!
I'm not even a romantic, but that's my favourite sort of love story philreich - friends first

Aww you guys lol. I'll tell you something about nerdy Porps. I had crushes on like a million guys when I was in high school but nobody really liked me. Or maybe they did but were too shy as well. I wasn't that attractive as a teen. Lots of pimples, skinny af, braces, glasses... yeah. But I focussed on doing well at school and having fun with my friends and trying to figure out who I was. My younger sister on the other hand, had so many boyfriends when she was a teen!! I was very jealous of her. I used to daydream a lot about some guy whisking me away into the sunset :p

I finally met a guy from online when I was 21 (this is post-Uni), had my first kiss then too. I was with this guy for three years when it should have only been one ha, but that's life for you and love really is blind. You learn from every experience. After we broke up, I had definitely changed as a person. I dressed better, I felt more confident. I wasn't as shy or scared. I went on lots of dates and met many great men, Tinder came in too which helped and hindered. Had some short-term flings. I didn't give up! Now I'm 30 and with an amazing guy (despite the fact he lives interstate :p) and I'm very happy with how it's going.

IN A NUTSHELL you're both still so young, there's no rush to experience everything, just be yourself and enjoy life. I have no doubt in my mind there will be a special someone out there and whether you meet her now, in a few years, or much later on it really doesn't matter! You both seem like great lads :thumbsu: More mature than some of the 'oldies' on here ;)

And yes sorry for hijacking the match thread with my dating life story but there you go lol :drunk:
Did not expect to see this in a Match thread. Very wise advice though.

A problem I have around dating is the only cheap cinema in melbourne is ridiculously close to all my mates places. So much so that when I was on a date there last week, I was walking hand in hand with the girl up the street. And then I bumped into my science teacher. I've never felt more awkward...
Ended up still getting a kiss on that date which was nice. Almost made me forget about the science teacher.
Key word almost :(

What the hell is going on?

And I thought things couldn't get any worse than the Taylor Swift discussion

philreich tell me a joke

sportsmaniac89 do your melty thing
If you insist:

A class of 7 year olds have just returned from lunch, and the teacher is getting the kids to say what they did during their lunch break. Johnny starts off by saying, "Mrs. Patterson - I played cars in the sandpit." She says, "OK Johnny: if you can spell CARS for me, you can go home early." The little boy immediately says, "C-A-R-S." The teacher says, "Well done Johnny - see you tomorrow." Johnny bolts out the door before you can say, "Gold Coast Suns for the spoon."

Then Jenny says, "Mrs. Patterson - I played cars in the sandpit with Johnny." The teacher is suitably impressed, "Hmmm - a budding romance perhaps? OK Jenny: if you can spell SAND for me, you can go home early as well." The little girl's eyes light up, and she says, "S-A-N-D." She smiles and says, "That's brilliant Jenny: see you tomorrow. " So Jenny does her best Usain Bolt impression.

Finally Jimmy puts on his sad face and says, "Mrs. Patterson - I wanted to play cars in the sandpit with Johnny and Jenny, but they wouldn't let me." His teacher simply looks at him and says, "OK Jimmy: if you can spell RACIAL DISCRIMINATION, you can go home early."

... I can still remember how that music used to make SarahSmile :p
And I knew if I had my chance, that I could make those people dance and maybe they'd be happy for a while...
