I know we live in a modern world but just curious about the answer to this. I might be considered old fashioned: try to treat women with respect, dont cheat, dont judge them by appearance, etc. For me all I want is a woman who is sweet funny and caring.

Go to Lisdoonvarna and let your hair down, there are a lot of old schools go there, but alas my friend it is a modern world and things are faster than they used to be, but there are still some that dont kiss and tell out there,, they are hard to find because of there shyness.
Hope you find what you seek, but the more you search the less you'll find, be yourself and it will come when you least expect it, best wisheshandshake

Women have always been judged by their appearances(talkin generally of course)........or am I wrong ?

Anyways I think people have diff ideas on what old fashioned constitutes.

I think you can judge people by their appearence in what they are wearing and with women how much or little make up they have on. But people seem to judge women on looks ie chest, size etc and a man by how skinny and how good his abs are.

I for one could care less once the person is nice, sweet, genuine and wants to be loved as much as love someone else.

Modern_Fairy: see thats the kinda talk that would have me gone... if a man started talkin about stuff like that to me within a year of bein together id prob be gone like the wind, prob down to my age and that but still...


You dont talk about them until the time is right but that is what the relationship should one day lead to whether it be 6 months or 6 years.

Kalimera: What I think is sad is that this is being described as an old fashioned relationship. Have I missed something? Did falling in love and planning your lives together go out of fashion?Of course at my age the family thing is over and done with but I really think it is sad that younger people seem to think this.

Well I want all the loveliness that comes from a stable, serious relationship but I don't necessarily think that just because I am going out with someone and love them that I will marry them and have kids with them....
Is that awful?!
I don't know why but I just take every day as it comes really, short term plans fine, long term plans.... Well I'm 23.
It's all about laughter, ridin' and being loved up.

Awful? no lol

I am not saying that a relationship shouldnt be fun and at 23 you are far to young to be thinking of marriage, I just think that if someone does feel they want to fall in love, get married and have a family that it is sad that it is considered old fashioned.

People treating each other well never goes out of fashion. If we treated each other with respect and dignity, relationships would be so much easier.

If this is true then how come it is harder than ever to find that someone special. Even with all the extras we have now such as internet dating how come there are more people single now than ever before. Could it be people just have to high expectations and wait for the "one" till he never comes along or do we just not want to settle down???confused confused confused confused

Are there more people single now than ever before or do we just know that they are out there now? Plus, there are some happier single now than languishing in crappy marriages like they did in "the good old days".
