Soka. *laughs* It's obvious that you don't really know much about me then. I don't get overemotional. I do however get irritated, impatient and unreasonable when I am disrespected. That's MY only comdition to dating, but unfortunetlly, no one wants to go out with me. I don't really care about them. I'll just be myself no matter how phsycotic I may seem and will never change. By the way, I am a teenager.

Surely there are other couples that stand the test of time at that age bracket (I was one, and know of others), but I'd agree that those couples that last are the ones who keep things in perspective and take it slow. Passion is important though, and one advantage of teens over older couples is that many older people become so jaded and defensive that they forget how to open themselves up to the kind of trust and affection you need to really jump start a relationship. You get people who date and date, and consecrating the relationship is something like filling out paperwork on a used vehicle. You just want to sign on the dotted line cause you're low on funds and sick of looking.

Now that I think about it, it's not a boyfriend that I want. I just want... someone to care. Sometimes its like my friends don't understand me or care about me. The only person in this whole world that understands me is Emora. Everyone else, - when I tell them something - they're like, "Oh, well, I'm sorry." It's horrible.

I see all my friends with boyfriends, and they act too much like what Vishaing was saying. It's really annoying.

As for opening up and trusting, I've been through too much to even do that now. I wonder how untrusting I'm going to be when I'm older... >.<

: ( Sorry to hear that Meagan. Close bonds are hard to find, and I think a lot of people feel that way too. I know I do.

Good to hear I'm not alone. It helps already! ^_^ Well, at least I know I have something to look forward to. It's not like I'm destined to be misunderstood for the rest of my life, so I know there's someone out there... somewhere...

Don't even talk to me about trust. Me and my boyfriend have almost broken up twice because well... the trust was slowly disenegrating becuase he was afraid I'd leave him for one of my guy friends. >_<

It was hectic. I'd like to tell you it's not worth the stress, relationships, but at the same time... if you find that person who cares and is just everything you've wanted...

...It makes you want to live...

Yeah. But I hear you, nothing feels worse than spilling your guts to someone and then getting such a bland response that you wish you could undo the whole thing. My father and I were actually talking about this a few weeks ago and he suggested something relatively different from my line of thinking. He said he oftens listens to people instead of talking, even if he wants to talk, because feeling listened to is a way people bond. So you can bond with someone just by listening to them. Which makes sense, I guess, since I've been on the 'gut-spilling' end, but I hadn't give the opposite position much thought. So my current goal is to keep an eye out for people who need a listener, and if I learn from hearing about their experiences that we share a lot of values, maybe I'll find some good friendships that way. (Anyone need a listener? Listener for hire!) That seems like the safest way because it keeps me from getting hurt by opening up to people who don't want the burden, and Imight help someone in the process.

Want to live?

Wow. I wonder how its like... wanting to live.
Well, I'm half-kidding there. Sometimes I want to live because, like I said, I have something to look forward to. But when all this stress just comes from no where and piles onto me all at once... well...

Probably the only reason I'm still alive today is because I'm afraid to leave behind the people I know love me. They may not understand me, but I know they love me. That's the onlt thing that motivates me to get up every morning, deal with the stress, and face my fears.

True about the trust thing, and I'm sure there are other couples, I just haven't seen them.

About the trust thing, funny stories about said couple that have been together, It is insane, (even for me) how much people have tried to get them to break up. Tons of people have tried to tell him that she was cheating on him with me. No clue how that one got started, but we all got a good luagh by referencing it to a Game I thought of that will come into play in the Comic I'm making entitle "The Devine Requiem" (Its a play on an already written book Can anyone guess what book?) and by making jokes amongst each other that me and her were having an affair and saying other ridiculous stuff like that. THe reaason it was all ridiculous, all three of us generally tend to not care at all about protecting people's emotions, so we just say what we feel and mean what we say, none of this 'white lie' BS. So if an affair were ever to be had, we would all just come out and say it, and then there would be an honor duel because both me and him have the equivelent to around five or six black belts and spend lagrge portions of our day fencing with one handed claymores (Gallowglasses for me thanks)

Another person apparently attempted to convince Her that He was cheating on her, with me. That was a distrubing conversation, apparently I come off as Homosexual. hmm. Oh well.

P.S. Soemone should rename this thread, it hs ceased to talk about lifting weights.

P.S.S in an effort to bring this thread back to the original topic, I do lift wieghts, but I do such in such a way that I am building my musculature so slowly that my muscles never actually get larger, they just get denser. So I get all of the strength without any of the bulkiness, and combined with my studies of mind over matter, I have attained what I like to call "Anime Strenght." where the thin guy is somehow unrealistically strong.

P.S.S.S.

P.S.S.S.S. Evin if I wanted to die, I can't yet, I have too much stuff I still have to do. And besides, Dying just ruins your whole day.

I know I will always be alone as sad as it sounds.

Rumors... *snarl*

Don't EVEN get me started...

I found out that smith squats work your body more than any other exercise so if anyone is really interested in lifting actual weights rather than emotional weight. Smith Squats are the way to go. For more info try going to your local gym and getting under a squat rack.

If you are just starting out I would reccomend just using about 180lbs plus the bar if you are around 170. If you are any bigger go on ahead up to 200 or more to get a better work out. I myself usually do 250 3X10. Next if you got weak arms preacher curls will help build greater arm endurance enabling you to mak heavier lifts.

How did this thread get into relations and love and such?

I just have to say that I'm single, but I don't feel that lonely.
