Is the 'Waiting Game' Old-fashioned? by destiny(m): 1:40pm On May 27, 2005 |
Is the "waiting" game "old fashioned" I am beginning to wonder why our youth no longer exercise patience any longer these days, especially when it comes to the issue of relationships. These days a guy or lady wants to get attached at all costs. If we can exercise patience and wait till the right person comes along, I think the world will be a better place to live in. |

Destiny the man, correct. Anything to make the world a better place is highly appreciated. But how long waiting do you prescribe? |

I think you're right. There is a lot of pressure put on people to be attached and in a relationship. Even I would like to be in a relationship but at the same time I appreciate that rushing into one is not the right plan so I have been "waiting" for years now. I would rather be single than be in a crappy relationship. Hmm, it depends on how you define waiting. I'm almost 26 and I'm waiting for the right person to come along, but not in the sense of sitting around doing nothing. I'm trying to establish a career and save for my future, regardless of whether I end up spending it alone or with a man. So, I'm an advocate of waiting, but not waiting and doing nothing, if that makes sense. |

The waiting game is certainly not old fashioned. I av friends that are waiting, some already married, as virgins. So it is not old fashioned. The bible is not old fashioned is it? |

it really is not old fashioned, but you have to stick your boobs out a bit for someone to have look at some nice natural endownment and decide to wait no more. |

I certainly do not consider it old fashioned, neither does my holy bible. |

waiting is not old fashioned...but u see im one of those ppl that believe you can still have fun, be in a relationship, and as long as both of you know its long term and for the rest of ur lives, waiting a few years till marriage b4 indulging in any kinda sexual activity is not wrong...if one of the partners feels its wrong...then he knows the door NEVER feel as though ur pressured in a relationship to do anything, esp to have sex..if u feel that way, and ur not ready 4it..dat guy is WRONG for u...leave having said that som ppl blieve practice makes perfect, or they are not about to get into somthin thats gonna last the rest of their lies when they dont even know how it tastes...how pessin go cook pot soup no taste?...lol so i guess it should come down to individuals...whatever u do, do it for u and BE SAFE |

Re: Is the 'Waiting Game' Old-fashioned? by richo2: 8:48pm On Dec 21, 2008 |
are we talkin about waiting to get married, waiting to get a boy/girl friend or waiting to have sex? |
Re: Is the 'Waiting Game' Old-fashioned? by SeaGoddes(f): 9:18pm On Dec 21, 2008 |
yes it is old fashioned, cox the world now as we know it is very fast paced, it is either u do it now or die waiting even if it falls thank jehovah god for divorce court and breakup songs and books one can always get out there and continue searching days are gone when young girls sit / dream and wait for their prince charming now they have to go out and grab one of course people can still wait but then for how long |
Re: Is the 'Waiting Game' Old-fashioned? by OBVIOUS(m): 9:29pm On Dec 21, 2008 |
Of course waiting is not old fashioned but what exactly is one waiting for. richo2: Good point and good question Richo I want to WAIT to get married but not wait to have sex. Sex is not a big deal as people place an emphasis on. Virgin this, Virgin that. What if one marries his/her husband/wife as virgins and then divorce occurs ? (the woman is no longer a virgin and the man isn't) whats next ? DEATH!!! L O L. I don't want to rush in, rush out of marriage. I want to wait to marry at least the close to the ideal person as no one is perfect. |
