Top 6 rules of dating

Top 6 rules of Dating
1.Age is not a restrictor. women my age have the same capability of being crazy as women younger or older than me. As a strict rule however, No-one who is closer to your parent's age than yours and no dating jailbait. both situations are bad news and not worth the trouble.

2. Gender is not a Restrictor. Men and Women are equally capable of being crazy, so why limit yourself to dating only half of them? but as a rule, don't date someone of a specific gender or the other for dumb reasons. dating a same-sex person to "freak people out" is not a legit reason to date someone. nor is dating an opposite-sex person if you're really attracted to same-sex and you only want to date the opposite-sex person to appease people in your life. don't date someone for public approval, date them for love.

3. Never-ever "chase" after someone. The person who controls the relationship is the one who cares the least, so if you have to court or chase after someone, that means they are setting the rules. Two people should always approach a relationship as equals. If someone wants to be dominant over other people then thats nice, go hire a servant, don't treat your s/o like crap because you can. This is of course negated if both partners are into D/S, in which case, have fun, whatever. But as a guideline for the rest of us, anyone who requires you to pursue them isn't worth catching. there should be mutual attraction from day one, otherwise move on.

4. The best way to tell if a relationship is going to last is shutting the hell up. if you can both stop talking for ten minutes of interrupted silence and neither of you feels awkward about it, then it means that both of you can stand being married to eachother. another good way is to time out how long fights last and what your good night/ bad night ratio is. if you're having equal or more of your nights being bad nights, it's time to move on. As much as we'd like to think that dating is about love and romance and all of that good stuff, it's not. it's about numbers. whether people realize or not. when people decide whether or not to stay with someone, they are weighing the pros and cons, adding up the numbers. if their s/o doesn't return phone calls it's negative points. if their s/o offers to pay for stuff it's positive points. once you've added everything up you check and see if you're in the negative. if you are then you'll most likely move on. if you're slightly in the positive most people will stay unless they've got a better offer, and of course the higher the positive number the more likely the desire to continue in the relationship.

5. Never, Ever date someone who has what you consider to be a "weird fetish". if it's weird to you now, it probably will always be weird to you, and no, you can't change that about someone. all they can do is to supress the desire to excercise that fetish. so if you're dating a girl who says "my favorite thing is to tie a guy up and pour hot wax all over him" and this freaks you out, run for the hills. yes, she's serious, and yes she wants to do it to you. get out before things get scary

6.Never ever continue dating someone who becomes financially reliant on you within a month. hell, within a year. it's completly understandable that people sometimes have bad luck in the employment enterprise, but until you've hit the year mark you have no reason to back them financially. before you get to a year, then they're just mooching. the most successful way to start a relationship, and to maintain a relationship is to make money not a concern. so if both people are financially secure, then money is not an issue, and they have to rely on personal problems to fuck things up.
