As for me, I would so love to lie about this-- like my man Napoleon D.-- and say that I have a really attractive girlfriend in my school who loves Mario games as much as I do, but that’s not true so I won’t say it. But as for things I look for in a girl… physical attraction doesn’t matter that much to me. I just want someone who has the same morals and beliefs as me and is honest, fun-loving, and will put up with my occasional weirdness. And since I’m kind of shy I’d definitely like to go out with someone at least fairly outgoing so they make me feel comfortable (but I could adjust to a shy gal too eventually). How about you?
Quick Fact: I was going to start this thread out by insulting the reader of being a Mario-obsessed nerd without a chance of fidning a date (just as a joke) but fortunately I didn't. Because who knows how close I'm aiming at myself after all!

As of right now, no. I'm leaving high school soon. I'm just hoping that, at one point in my life, I'll be able to find someone, anyone, who can understand me, or, better still, help me fix my blaring social deficiencies.
And you do realise that most of the female members of this forum probably won't have girlfriends. Never know, though.

High School relationships almost ALWAYS end up in chaos. I have no idea why people do it. Every person I've known who has gotten in a relationship with someone broke up with them later. I ask them if they had anything in common. As I had expected, all of them said "no". This makes me believe that many people are swayed by the media that says "looks are everything". They only liked each other for their appearance, nothing more. I have asked them why they go through with it and why they don't just stop and live their own life, but have gotten hostile replies.
This contributes to why I don't care for dating at this time. It doesn't usually work until college or after, when people finally see that looks aren't everything.
Post by: Sapphira on May 15, 2005, 10:58:53 PM
I suppose I'll comment on some things some of you said.
"I don't really care for the average blonde hair blue eyes look that much (but looks don't really matter to me)"
~Ahem! *is offended* :P (Although most of those people are fake blondes, which is just...ugh.) (Yes, I know you said looks don't really matter, but I just felt like saying that.)
"Every person I've known who has gotten in a relationship with someone broke up with them later."
~Well duh. Almost everyone breaks up with a person at some point in time, or else everyone would be with the first person they're ever with for their entire life (which is possible, but not common--especially if it's both people's first relationship, and especially since most relationships are shallow, blah blah blah, etc). Or being with more than one person at a time, which is just messed up. XD
I know you hate Friends, but as Monica said to Chandler (while engaged to him) about a girl he had dated as a kid, "Did you break up with her?" To which he then gives her a blank look and says sacastically, "No, we're still together."
Okay, I ended up ranting there, which I wanted to avoid doing, but basically I'm saying that was a stupid comment, Vid. XP(BTW, that was NOTHING of a rant, compared to what I could go into. XD)
"I ask them if they had anything in common. As I had expected, all of them said "no"."
~That's just sad. And shallow. And...okay, I'll stop.
I also find in interesting that several of those descriptions of characteristics you guys like fit me... >_>; *Hides*

-"someone who has the same morals and beliefs as me" (I think from what I've heard, YSR has the same as mine, though I don't know how much.)
-honest
-fun-loving (well, depends on each individual's view on what is "fun")
-"will put up with my occasional weirdness" (Eh, I put up with most people's general weirdness. XD)
-"nice to people" (I start out nice to everyone; I only get harsh when someone is being repeatedly rude and/or mean)
-"Someone independant [sic], who doesn't fall under peer pressure"
-"girls who don't dress in bright colors all the time"
-"are usually quiet"
-"aren't constantly smiling every second" (I smile when I'm happy or amused, which if often, but I'm also pretty serious a lot of the time, as well)
-"The quiet girl in honors class wearing the dark blue sweatshirt quietly reading" (This one fits me so much it's freaky. XD)
-sense of humor (although different people have different senses of humor)
Uh, I think that pretty much covers it. Give or take, as some things are relative. I'm also pretty understanding, even if I can't relate to something personally.

I know a girl who has gone out with a guy for about a year, but in all the pictures I've seen with them together, he didn't seem very interested in her. In fact, she always told me stories on how she was ignored by him when having conversations because he was playing with his GBA. They broke up....then got back together.....then broke up again.....then got back together. See a pattern going on? She's obviously lusting him, and when she says something like, "I'm sorry. Will you go out with me, baby?", I'm guessing his reply always is "Okay, sure. ALRIGHT! NEXT LEVEL!".

~Ahem! *is offended*
And with that I got the closest I've ever come to literally falling out of my chair while laughing.
There is probably more than I realize that I could say on this subject, but my views are getting to the point where I have to think about them a lot to understand them—explaining them so that others can understand might be impossible right now. They aren't even my views, which doesn't make sense. So yeah, I won't even try until sometime after E3, if ever.
But it is interesting to read what you guys have to say. And sometimes pretty darn funny, too. ;D

I think people compare Sapphira to Saphira because they are both highly assertive. To tell the truth that you've all probably heard by now, I was disppointed with the dragon in Eragon. not just because it was a girl dragon, but she was very condescending and I just plain didn't like her, or her dialect, if that matters. I HATE YOU ALL! BWAHHAHAHAHAHAA!!! Er--no, I just don't like the condecending fashion of a dragon who grew up in five months and looks down on it's owner. Or maybe I just don't like her. I only really liked the Murtagh character.

to...state.
The only girls I get nervous around are ones I've never talked to or haven't seen in a long time. I agree somehow to how SSM can't give a good or satisfying answer to "Why do you like Mario so much?", but I don't necessarily mean Mario. I have a "problem" some of you know or hopefully don't know, but after going on medication which seems to magnify the significance of the problem, I became insecure of the subject and began holding my shirt collar in PE when we wear just a PE shirt and no collared shirt. A lot of people(or the same people over and over) asked me why I hold my shirt collar or paper clip it, which I can't answer. As if I can answer that in a normal voice and within three sentences. Even though it's a simple question of curiosity, they would get more than they ordered and either empathize or know more about me than I am comfortable giving away. I would rather bite my lip in pain when people hit me there for a few years until I am off darned medication than tell people one of my deeper secrets when I'm halfway through medicaton and the fact of what I had/have would never change. Teenagers just aren't very understanding, especially guys. Girls are more understanding though, and while I wouldn't tell a girl anything either on this subject, at least I could confess lesser things to one. It's like having an English teacher: who wants to write down their thoughts and feelings that some old...guy is going to read? I guess I shouldn't care what these people think/would think about me, because in four years we're gone, plus school is for pursuing interests in careers or general knowledge, not developing unstable relationships that often don't build up to anything. My sister had a boyfriend senior year at high school and they were really great together, but broke up a little before graduation because they were going to different colleges and keeping a relationship like that would be tough and prone to failure anyway. My sister told me that high school relationships are pointless and won't matter after a while, and I agree with her to some extent; some people get married successfully from high school, and Lizard Dude's line was pretty nice and makes the love sound worth it, however temporary or little of it there is.
There. That's my long "rant" or whatever it's called. Sapph, I think you deserve to "rant" a little.

First things first...
*Stabs MamaMia Mario*
*Slaps ledzeppelinrocks across the face* You horrible, horrible shallow person! It's guys like you that make me sick with rage and despise most of male population, because of this stereotype a lot seem to fit. (No offense to the rest of you.)
"I would like to comment on LD's post ‘Tis better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all’ In most cases, not true."
~In most cases, it's not real love. Most people don't know the meaning of real love (especially high schoolers); everything is so shallow and meaningless and pointless and only based on looks or "oh, they're hot/cute/nice/sweet/funny/mischievous/etc" and not based on character. ...Okay, the list goes on, and I'll stop ranting. Suffice it to say, most relationships make me absolutely SICK because of its shallowness. They don't really *KNOW* the person. Inside and out, good and bad, high points and low points, quirks and weirdness and all. Only then can you really LOVE a person--because you love them for WHO they ARE, despite their flaws.
"But I'm going into 10th grade! Thats intermediate [crud]!"
~Uh...that sounded incredibly desperate and driven by peer pressure. You should NEVER feel pressured into "getting a girlfriend" because "everyone else is doing it" or "I'm a loser if I don't have one" or "it makes you cool"--the ones who put that pressure upon one are shallow themselves. Only do something if your heart is genuine--and (it's my personal ...perception, or something..) that one should not even BE in a relationship unless they really LOVE the person first--AND is ready to handle a relationship.
". . . I cant even come up with a straight up answer for a girl that asks, why I love Mario so much."
~If someone doesn't understand or at least *accept* something you love (as long as there's nothing WRONG with it), they are not accepting you as a person, and never will. You shouldn't have to explain it. They may not understand why you are the way you are, or why your interests are what they are, but they should at least *accept* it. If they don't accept it and accept you for who you are, that should be a red flag--you shouldn't be with someone like that. If they accept it from the start, they may eventually *understand* it, if they don’t already from the start.
"My sister had a boyfriend senior year at high school and they were really great together, but broke up a little before graduation because they were going to different colleges and keeping a relationship like that would be tough and prone to failure anyway."
~See, that just saddens me. It's evidence they really didn't LOVE each other. They may have LIKED each other, but if they really, deeply loved and cared for each other, they would not want to lose what they have. It would be too precious, something worth keeping. If it's love, it will last regardless of how far apart or close together they are, how little or how frequently they get to be together. It would be tough, but if both really love each other, then both will view it as worth it.
Deezer: AHAHAHA to your post. XD
boomstix: Try being on the opposite end. It's quite awkward.
"Well, if it's a different Koopie Koo, how did the one you're going out with also go out with Koops?"
~Is it just me, or did that not make any sense? XD Hmm, or maybe the other Koopie Koo wasn't the real one, and the "different" one IS the real one, or something. CLONES AAAAH! ...I think I just confused myself.
Anyway, AAAAH! THE RANTING!! Man, I hope you're happy, Markio. :P I think that's all the ranting I can handle for now. x_x

~*Ahem* Ever thought that *I* was also joking?
I'm not a feminist, but I abhor shallowness. I despise remarks like "she's hot" or "he's gorgeous" or other physical, lusty attractions, regardless of the gender the person making the comment, and regardless of the gender of the one it's directed toward. While I don't think too highly of the general male population, neither do I think too highly of the general female population, either. The general population is pretty much driven by lustful, impure desires, and it makes me sick. Ricidule me if you will for it.
I should mention that *I* have a passionate dislike for the shallowness of society. I'm more moralistic than feministic. Gender is irrelevant; it's all about character, in my mind.

Today I was sitting next to a friend at an assembly and he pointed to a girl and said she was hot. The girl he pointed to was from my Drama class, and I really did not like her. She would hang around with the other guy in my project group, and the guy basically makes fun of me whenever I talk, calling me a "homo" or a freak or some other random thing, and when I try to insult him back, the girl says, "Why are you so mean to him?", as though he never said anything to me first. Proof that looks don't matter.

Sapphira: Joking about stabbing and slapping someone seems like sick humor to me (unless you're slapping someone with a fish XD). But it's good to know that you care so much about what people are like inside and not Hollywood's skin-deep perspecitve. Also, I don't care what color hair and eyes a girl has, even if it is blonde! Oh the horror! (joke)

I didn't start dating until I got to High School, but for the first two years I was in several non-serious relationships. Nothing serious at all, hugs and kisses only, and they usually never lasted long at all. I think the longest one was about six weeks.
The second half of Grade 10, I decided to stop this, and avoid girls, because i kept hurting, and getting hurt. However, that summer I had spent quite a bit of time with this one girl, and I liked her, and I was positive that she liked me. I knew she was different, because I was actually scared to ask her out, but eventually I built up the courage and went for it. She had dark hair, and a nice smile to go along with it. However, after about 2 and a half months I wasn't having a good time anymore. She was becoming very bossy, very negative, and we were fighting more, and she was trying to control me. A week later I broke up with her, and since I'm not proud of the way I broke up, I'm not going to share it.
My next girlfriend came about three quarters through Grade 11. She was a nice girl, a little timid, but we seemed to connect quite meaningfully, but once again I felt that I made a mistake, and before the schoolyear ended, we broke up.
When I started my last year of school, that's when I started teaching at the elementary school as an educational assistant for half the day, and after a few weeks of doing that, I decided that I wasn't going to date at that time because I really wanted to focus on my career. This was stopped 2 weeks later by a beautiful girl named Tara who I jumped into a relationship with. This girl was a sweetheart too, she was beautiful and cool. She was humourous, and we were so much alike that it was crazy. I found her to be quite amazing, and I did more with her than any other girl I've been with. However, bad news came back when she was going to be moving away that January, which saddened me greatly. We seldom discussed this, and in the end we decided to break up for the greater good. I really miss her, she was by far the best girlfriend I've ever had.
Now let's check in on lately. As of March Break I started dating a girl who is two years younger than me. She has dark hair, and is pretty. She's very different than any of my other girlfriends, and I think that we're too different. I do like her, and I care about her deeply, but to be honest I really have my doubts. We're way too different, and I'm only going to be here for one more year. That, plus she's always gone out of town, i'm having a harder and harder time keeping this relationship together, so I'm considering ending it, but I don't want to hurt her because I like her, and I think she would be sad to lose me.
Well thanks for listening!

My first gilrfriend was in second grade. I used to play with her every recess until I wanted to play soccer with the other guys, and when I did that, people thought I dumped her. But we worked it out so we always sat with each other in the dirt on the second base of the softball field during the ten-minute break at two o' clock.
Sadly, she left school in third or fourth grade and I never saw her again. She was also one of my friends that believed that deep inside of ourselves we must have super powers. I remember swinging from low-hanging branches, thinking we could fly if we tried hard enough. I also remember imagining the "Whole New World" song from Aladdin with her as Jasmine and me as Aladdin in my daydreams.
This year I've had three crushes. One was on the girl who sits next to me in Math class, but I think that was because she was the nicest person in that class though. After seeing her group of friends though, I knew we could never work out if anything ever happened that brought us together; she was too normal.
Another crush was on a girl in my German class, but the same "different friends" thing got in the way; namely, she had friends and I didn't. Just kidding, I had friends, but I just couldn't see myself getting along with her friends well. At least she also remembered the 3 Ninjas and I like how see would laugh worrilessly like a rebel, with life as a wild ride, but with meaningful friendships.
Another crush was on a girl in my Drama class who was in the musical with me. But she liked older guys I think, and because I was involved in an activity that requires more human contact than normal, I switched into "immature/psycho" mode and probably scared her away, as if she was warming up to me anyway.
In conclusion, serious relationships should be left to little kids, who understand better than us teenagers do. When I develop a crush on a girl, it's really just an admiration of one of their qualities. Everyone has good qualities that make me happy to see that that person isn't all bad, but I can't see how I can tie into their life with one similarity like that. My "crushes" are really just people I could see myself having an intelligent conversation with, or a silly laughing fit over something we both remember or know. I feel that I would invade a person's life if I acted out intimate feelings toward them, although the intimacy level is usually low, which means I shouldn't try in the first place. Plus freshamn year in high school is where half the people are prepubescent and the others aren't, so things get mixed up. When I see couples talking and smiling as they look into the other's eyes, it makes me happy to see that at least they're happy with each other at that moment. It doesn't matter if they break up later since it isn't true love, because if people can have at least one fleeting moment like that, where they're together and that makes them happy, that has to be worth something.
Oh, but I don't like when they block the middle of the hallways.

There's nothing wrong with physical beauty, but when that becomes the most important/only reason for liking someone, it's shallow.
While I have found people to be nice looking, I have NEVER once experienced the feeling of "lust." That may be hard to believe, but I'm being completely honest. I'm just not attracted to people in that way. I may be a hypocrite in other areas (everyone is a hypocrite in some way), but this is something I'm definitely not hypocritical about.
Outside beauty can be superficial; there's nothing wrong with it, but it's what's on the inside that really counts. Unfortunately, when someone is physically attractive, it becomes harder for other people to see them for who they really are.
I find it flattering when people compliment my physical appearance, but I find it much more flattering and it means so much more to me when someone compliments something about my character. I'd rather be admired for who I AM inside than for how I LOOK on the outside.
What's wrong with quoting? It clarifies to what you're responding to.
I'm tired of all these people getting on my case about everything. I mean, seriously, what's the deal here? This is another reason why I didn't want to rant about this subject.

TEM says: "I like redheads and freckles."
-Somewhat surprisingly to myself, I would too, if I wasn't attracted to someone who has neither freckles nor red hair.
MMM says: "All women are fiends angelical, serpent hearts housed in beauty, sirens luring us guys only to crash painfully on the rocks."
-Mad acts stupid lots.
ledzeppelinrocks says: "I just think they're hot."
-ledzeppelinrocks is a pure idiot for that comment.
superstarMASIAH says: "I've been wanting to reply to this topic for a very long time. I would like to comment on LD's post 'Tis better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all' In most cases, not true."
-See Sapphira's reply to this comment. If you really love someone, then it's always worth it. From what I've seen, most people don't really know what love even is.
I'm just sorry, but I find that Todd's post reeks of shallowness and misconceptions.
"Nothing serious at all, hugs and kisses only, and they usually never lasted long at all. I think the longest one was about six weeks."
-In my considered opinion, if you kiss someone, it had better be serious. That's just about the most serious and sincere expression of love that I can think of. If there's something more "serious" than that, as far as such relationships go, then I'm very confused.
If you don't think you should be in a relationship, then for both people's sake, say something.
I also have qualms with this post:
"Because I know that it is basic human nature to be lustful. Humans are pure sin, and were created by some-one who knew right from the git-go!"
-First of all, that statement really didn't make any sense, and on top of that, I totally disagree with it. Going by this outlook, if humans are "pure sin," I see nothing worthwhile in living, caring about anything, or even existing.
"You never said this, but it sounds like you are trying to make yourself seem like youve never been physically attracted by some-one."
-You realize, that could be possible. Just because most people are like that, it doesn't mean everyone in the world is that way. That's the problem with your first generalization, also.
I am quite sure that I have never felt this sensation known as "lust."
I've only ever had one crush on a girl, when I was 7 years old. She was probably 13-15, something like that. We were in a play together. I don't even remember caring when the play was over; I don't even have any idea what she was like anymore. However, that feeling caused me to shallowly pursue for a number of years another girl, whom I had known for a while before this. Eventually I realized that this was pointless, because even though I wanted them to be, the feelings were not genuinely there.
A couple years later, and I was still good friends with this girl. Only then, slowly, I realized that I did actually have genuine feelings for this girl. I tried to tell her about it, but she didn't really want anything to do with it. This has gone on for several years. More than ever, now, I believe I love this girl. She is the best friend I have. We're going to be going to different colleges, but chances are I will still be able to see her somewhat regularly. And I will still love her, even if she never returns my feelings. I believe she is the only person I could truly love. There have been a few other girls whom I must admit I have found attractive, but I never once wanted to be in a "relationship" with them, because during all that time, I've known that I really love one girl, and only one girl.
In short, no, I do not got a girlfriend. I have something much more special, much more important; I have a good friend whom I love dearly. And I would never trade that friendship for the utterly shallow "status" of having a "girlfriend," especially as an end unto itself.

Incredibly, the girl I mentioned before has decided to go to the college I will be attending. So that makes me somewhat happier than I have been.
I wish to say something which sort of relates to LD's comment: Even if the girl I love ever returned my feelings, I can't see how she would be my "girlfriend." She'd still be my friend. That seems to mean a lot more.
Post by: Watoad on May 30, 2005, 09:27:38 PM

And about that clone thing... honestly I used to wish that too. *gags at the thought* But now I would prefer someone is who NOT like me because I really get on my nerves sometimes and it helps to have someone who can point out your mistakes and also "complete your missing half" so to speak by being different in temperaments.

Edit: Well, what am I saying? It's not really a downside; it's actually an upside. It's just the part that makes her harder to get.

My ideal girl is very intelligent. But not extremely outspoken. Of course, she's gotta be nice. Also, she wouldn't need any kind of hint or suggestion from me to be intimate. I like physical contact, and I like attention and LOVE to give attention.
She wouldn't be too independent because I like to help and I like to do things for her. But independent enough not to rely on me for everything, be a dits, or clumsy. And this is one of my pet peeves, but I really like punctuality. No being late. I think that a girl that wants to be a little early is attractive to my mind. I'm drawn to people like that. (well sort of :: cough :: screech :: cough ::)
Also, I would enjoy being with her out of school and not at my or her house. She has to have a sense of adventure. I really like adventure, like a sudden want to just go riding in the countryside, or a hike through the woods, or a random call wanting to go to the local mall or see a movie.
Also, this is a big thing I believe for everyone, she MUST accept me for who I am. I shouldn't have to hide one thing about myself from her that may change the way she feels about me. It sounds demanding with the "MUST" and all, but it is a must. Also, she, like myself, would keep little things secret just to keep them erm 'sacred' i suppose. Y'know those little moments where you look into her eyes and you know she's the one, or the first kiss. Stuff like that. Those moments are the most precious to me and I wouldn't be with a girl if she didn't keep the secret moments 'sacred'. Also, she must be her own person.
Not letting friends control who she is or letting a friend get in the way of us as a couple. When I ask for privacy, I don't want a nosy friend tailing us five feet away. Also, I'd respect her even more if I'm not head over heels for her by now, I'd probably implode with love if she were that way. It means she is somebody completely original and lets no outside fluences affect her.
Also, she's gotta love music. Music is the life of everything in my opinion. As Jimi Hendrix said, "Acting, Music, Art, andything like that is very earthly and it can be replaced by nothing." It'd be nice if music were a strong trait in her. Singing. . .playing, whatever.
Anyways, there's my very ideal girl. However, there seems to be many, I understand that there is no such thing as perfect and Four or five out of the ones listed would be VERY Ideal in my eyes. Speaking of eyes. It would be nice if she were attractive, however, I do not let my eyes judge who I would date.
Well, there you have it, the perfect girlfriend for Gunblade88
