[CHAT] Romantic Relationships
Romantic relationships can be a wonderful and rewarding experience and sometimes they can be tough and difficult. There's many reasons someone might choose to be in a relationship and many places where you can meet people and build a relationship.
Relationships can also end, and sometimes those break-ups can be tough. But that doesn't mean it's the end. Check out this article here on break-up coping tips before the chat.
Whether you’re happily single, happily taken or looking to find someone, come join us on Monday 23rd July at 7:30pm AEST for a chat on romantic relationships!
Agreed @DirtWitch (also, hello! :D) I definitely get frustrated with forced romantic pairings between characters. Just let them be friends!! 😛 But alas, we live in a very "romantic" world so I won't ever get my wish but maybe one day platonic relationships will be held just as highly as romantic ones 🙂
Time for my answer 😉
How can being in a relationship affect your day-to-day life?
What a great question... 😛 I can only speak from second-hand experience as I (obviously) have no idea. But it's having that other person in your life. If you live with them, it creates a different household dynamic, a more "mundane" feel when you're at home and doing chores or other things you usually do at home whereas hanging out for dates or other gatherings is a different atmosphere and would have a different effect, a more "what are we going to do next?" atmosphere rather than a "who's turn is it to cook?" atmosphere. If that made any sense 😛
It would be nicer if media stopped obsessing over being in relationships and how they believe these relationships should act (i.e- drama and pairing people with each other in shows) and let things develop naturally and on their own.
