An Honest Situation

[xBaron Dants]

It would be a waste of intelligent genes if Mr. Dants did not have a family and breed and pass on his genes, moreover erect a nice Armenian family. We are short of those indeed.

Haha! Well aren't you polite with me!

I'm guessing that, eventually, I'll also get tricked into marriage by some woman, and I'll also have 2 kids, a dog and a mini-van. Shame.

Such a martyr you are, little Dants.

You have an OK career, but get the opportunity to have your DREEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAM job....in Australia. What happens? A sacrifice will be made by someone at a certain point. But then again, maybe there will be somebody that will make that sacrifice worth it, but to say that there is no loss of freedom is untrue.

Alright....kill me now.

If you have never had a long-term serious relationship, the thought seems somewhat apocalyptic for several reasons, since you're used to being free, more or less. You're used to having to do what you want, go out with whoever you want to, and not justify yourself to anyone, or constantly tell someone where you are, and what you're doing. You can go bother the bum down the street, a bar for a drink, or simply sleep and not answer phone calls. You can look at girls freely, you can talk to any girl freely, you can go out with any girl freely. I've had many instances of people telling me why I don't get into a relationship. Aside from the obvious reason that I am still young, although flirting with the idea of having to be in one in the future, I simply cannot picture my freedoms and temporal spaciousness disappearing anytime soon. Having been accustomed to this lifestyle of freedom, it would have a hard adjust to this without thick resistence. The thing is, people have this idea that some people have a fear of relationships. Now I am cautious to use this, because in a way it is fearful, but not because of a relationship but is this a fear of losing that freedom. Is it really the same thing or is this simply a natural reaction to circumstance?

So how about the other way around ?
I mean, from being in a (relatively) longterm relationship into (relative) freedom.
That was pecisely my case, and it was a 180 degrees of a rough turnabout. And although the relationship was both physical and spiritual and was indeed promising, I can honsetly say that I'm more comfortable without, since it wouldn't help keeping the pace of my present lifestyle at it's ideal speed; something I won't compromise for at this age.

I think of a relationship as two cogs attached together, one smaller and the other one bigger. Each person acts as the smaller cog to his partner. If the smaller cog slows down, what happens to the other ? The bigger cog will suffer multitudes of slower angular velocities! Thus, the relaionship won't be constructive.

At 17-18, as childish as we are, we are definitely not kids anymore. With CEGEP (Quebec pre-university) and university, people are already making life decisions, and MOST girls just went in Social because it had the least pre-requisites (I'm not dissing social science, I'm in it myself, but I'm in it because it was most related to my interests, and my future life). There just seems to be no concern about anything except the stupid banalities I mentioned in my post above. So it isn't about marriage material, it's about stupid girls.

I didn't mean that we are childish at this age, of course not. I'm just saying that it is pretty silly of us to give up on the married life in the future because we haven't really began to date or we haven't had any experience with that. You said that the girls are stupid. Well, you just haven't met the girl you want to date. Of course there are stupid girls or girls that are just not in your interest to date. Just don't come to rash conclusions at 17. Got that?

Well there are positives, of course. The family thing is a HUGE plus. But I'm just thinking that it will get sooo boring in the long run, and I'll be discussing about the drop in the price of apples at the supermarket, and how I managed to buy 8 artichokes for a dollar at some store, while the other store was selling them at 4 for a dollar... In Quebec, they call it "La petite vie", meaning "the small life", meaning routine, routine, routine and a night of bowling once a month to have fun.

DUDE! Are you afraid of growing old? What about the "cute" idea of the old married couple getting on the bus and the man helps the woman sit down and etc.? I hope I remembered that correctly. lol. I get the feeling that you want this but are just afraid of how it will happen or if it will be as good as you want it to be. Everyone has doubts. You're not alone.
That part about "discussing about the drop in the price of apples at the supermarket," I think that's just something that comes with the age. For example, when you were five I'm sure you thought that kissing girls was.......what's the word......yucky. lol. You don't think that now, do you? I think it's just one of those things that come with age and it's not something that marriage does.

Eh, as I said, I haven't given up hope. *Turns flirt mode on* Say, you look like a pretty bright and interesting girl.

And commitment? What are the percentages of people who cheat? Isn't it better to not fake a commitment?
On TV last night, there was this advertisement for this agency who hooks up married people who want to cheat on their spouses. The whole infomercial was about how cheating is normal and part of our nature, yevayln...

And one question, what jealousy? I didn't get that part.

What I meant by jelousy is that when you connect with someone very deeply, it will be hard for you to see that person with someone else besides you and jelousy may open your eyes into something called LOVE. Yes love, something that every person has their own definition to.
