Jaap's Sigh Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 It's hardly board clogging if it's managed 2 pages since last night. Others are interested enough to add to it so it's not as if it's taking up board space unnecessarily. If anyone's clogging anything, it's you with your irrelevant posts clogging this thread. If no-one likes the thread they won't post on it and it will slip past page one in a few hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoJack Horseman Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 I took a few girls out before I was eighteen, but did not have an actual girlfriend. I then spent basically my eighteenth and nineteenth years in a state of celibacy, and an extended affair with my hair covered right palm. On returning to Edinburgh for a month on leave I was able to release a few tensions but no girl friend. In London still aged nineteen I met my first true love still have the tattoo to prove it. My commitment was for life, hers was for about a week and a half. Once bitten twice shy. Out of the army back to Edinburgh, after a while got a new girlfriend, went well for a while but again these tensions built up and I explained a man has needs, she said so do I and before I satisfy them I need an engagement ring and ultimately a wedding. My tensions disappeared at that along with the physical sign of my desire. I made myself available to be used by females in their wilful ways, satisfied their physical needs and then lived with the expected further rejection after I had been used. I met my wife when I was 23, it worked out not too bad. She has had her way with me, realises I am an easy slut, but still respects me. I vote for 23 as the best time to get a girlfriend. Does anyone else imagine Bob as... I've got a mate who is 24 and has never really been in a relationship with a bird. Bit weird like He fires into some stunners as well, just never seems to take it to the next step. What's weird about that? My opinion has changed slightly since breaking up with the ex. I was convinced you had to get a bird and start a family well early in life. I think opinions change depending on the age of your parents. If you've got young parents you think that's normal and vice versa. The rate we're going and with the gradual increase in life expectancy, I'd encourage most guys to spend their 20s living their life. If someone comes along in that time then great, but don't actively look for it. Enjoy being young, it only happens once. When you hit 30 get yourself a wee early 20s bird and knock her up. job done.

Snake Plissken Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 There is no right answer to this question but I will say there's no point buying a cow if you just want a pint of milk. You shouldn't bother with a relationship unless it's with the right person, nothing wrong with some casual shenanigans in between. I had a five year relationship in my late teens/early twenties that didn't work out and have spent most of my mid-twenties enjoying the single life. I wasn't against settling down, I just wasn't prepared to do it with someone I wasn't that into - I had two FWB situations that ran simultaneously for over a year. I liked both of them enough to keep seeing them but not enough to want to do it exclusively and the same applied for them. I may just have met the right one now at the ripe old age of 27 but it's only a month in so time will tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ribble Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 When your mates start having 'couples nights' is the time to get a serious burd. Also when ye canny be arsed going out to shighty clubs listening to baws music sipping over-priced drinks - that's the time to get a serious burd. I would say mid to late twenties If your mates can't come out for a bevvy because they are part of a couple then find new mates! As for the second part, isn't it easier and cheaper to find somewhere else to drink rather than settling down? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just a legality, what's the bloody hurry? If you're sure you'll be together forever then why not just wait a few more years to tie the knot? This! I met a girl just after I turned 20, she was 21, we had won the cup that year and I reckon I was drunk on delirium. We got on well and had bought a flat and moved in together within about 9 months. We got engaged a year later and then got married a good 6 & a half years since we met. Sold the flat & moved to a house a couple of years after being married, she fell pregnant a few months after we moved in, not planned, but hey ho, it was all good. Daughter born the following summer, 2 years later, big argument and fall out led to a split and now separated and have been for 18 months to 2 years. Now living the single life in my early 30's, although I do have responsibilities, ie: my daughter, my house etc, but enjoying life as a single man again. My advice to the OP, don't go wishing your life away and imagining that every girl you meet, could be the one, it doesn't work like that and my advice is to just go with the flow. I had nigh on 12 years or being in a relationship and while I wouldn't swap the things that went well during it, my daughter etc, there is lots I would change in an instant and one of them is settling down in my early 20's. I have attended lots of weddings this year, 2 of which involved friends of mine of the same age and i have another 2 to go in September & November, but they all took their time in settling down and finding a partner and everyone of them did the right thing IMHO. Infact not one of them are still with the partner they came to my wedding with 7 years ago. Don't dive in, you are young and have bags of time to settle down, just enjoy being young with no ties or baggage. You have a long life ahead so don't waste it doing something or someone who you are not happy with. Here endeth the sermon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Proper childhood sweethearts. They went out for over ten years (in the meantime buying a home together) and then eventually got engaged. Went to their wedding a year or so back, and within months it turned out she'd been drawing the curtains for her boss for several months! Waste of cash spent on their wedding!

Such a waste of the best years of your life, years that you'll never get back (until your inevitable divorce of course). Things are different in the 21st century, attitudes have changed and some people haven't got the memo. I was with a bird from 19 - 21. She wanted to get married and have kids. I was still at uni ffs. Told her I wasn't up for that, so she went and found someone who was. Their relationship started with cheating on me, he proposed 3 months after later, they got married in January this year. Absolute NAP they won't make it to 30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also I wanted to get married to show my wife how much I loved and respected her after she had our child. We might not make it to our deathbeds bit plenty people did when it was the norm to get married at 20-25. In addition to this, my children will be put of the house when I hit 45ish which will coincide with me being able to use my larger than now salary on myself and my wife. So I'm not really bothered about missing out on some meaningless one night stands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not how it happened, we were already discussing marriage when she fell pregnant (I was against it) however my respect levels for her went through the roof when our son was born. If you haven't been through this, you probably won't understand it tbh.

IronJambo Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 It's an odd thing love and marriage. After a couple of years with my ex I didn't think could ever have as strong feelings for anyone. We had some great times and managed to help each other through some really shit times. It made us stronger for a while and I didn't think that would ever break or be replaced. Oddly, I never once felt I wanted to marry her. After all the shit was gone we should've been in a position to move forward, we had no money worries, had a nice flat and were speaking of buying a nice house to grow into. Thing is we'd grown in different directions and whilst we wanted to move forward we didn't really want to do it with each other. 5 and a half years togehter and I would maybe say I regret 3 of them. I was 21 and she was 19 when we met. After we split I figured we were always destined to fail given how young we were when we met, we both had a lot of changing to do. Fair play to anyone that gets married young, just be aware that you're both going to change lots and you need to work hard at trying to make sure you grow together. Kids might keep you together for a while, but make sure you've got something left to share with each other once they're gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
