I keep trying to write responses to this tread, and deleateing them without posting becuase whatever I write just isnt right.
I can say this though, I think everyone should date/look around and not marry their first sweetheart. There is no way of knowing who you are and what works for you without trying each option out alittle. That doesnt mean you have to sleep around or anything. Just that what we think we want as kids/teens/collegeaged is so often totally wrong for us long term. All most all of the ‘sweethearts’ couples I know are also the most bitter and unhappy couples I know. I am not sure that people can really know love without experiencing somekinda pain first.
