I understand your perspective. I just don't really put a lot of importance on sex. Its not that I'm asexual, its just that there are a lot more things to experience.PayJ567 said:A) Then you're missing out, as a teenager you have the "right" to get away with doing what ever you can do. So by not going after hot girls and stuff you will most likely regret it when you mature up and realise you wasted your teenage years trying to be mature. This happened to me so I speak from experience.2012 Wont Happen said:That makes more sense, but I still generally disagree. I don't really care if someone is hot. Sure, there are a couple of people that I know who are hot that I would be with, but only because they are cool. For each one of them there's a dozen more hot people that I think are dumb tossers.PayJ567 said:Haha, I'm actually sorry. I was just waiting for someone to pick me out on my comment so I could post all that. Saw one thing that could be interpreted like that and went to town.Disaster Button said:Uhm, I was actually just making a Futurama reference...PayJ567 said:Robots? They are actually the perfect questions. As if you are a teenager then you can get away with all the sexy shenanigans as you are young and immature. So the physical attractiveness of the person is actually a very important factor to a horny teen. The emotional shit should only be dealt with in the 20+.Disaster Button said:Robots don't say ye.PayJ567 said:A) How old are you?
B) How hot is this girl?
Answer me those shall ye?
OT: I wouldn't do anything until you know for sure as asking her would be weird pretty uncomfortable if she doesn't feel the way you think. Once you know, or get close to knowing as you think you can, then ask if you have to.

I don't know maybe I'm just too brutally honest about this whole thing. All I know is "Emotions and all that crap" shouldn't act in until you want a relationship and you shouldn't be having "relationships" until you are ready and alot of Boys and Girls think they are ready and have their little hearts broken and then are stuck thinking how terrible their life is.
So filtering out all these emotional factors you get to the very core of what you want as a teenage boy from 13-20 and that's pretty much just "sex" and what not. Sure there are exceptions to rule but then asking these questions filters out these exceptions.

I have a better one, why did this guy join a gaming forum just to ask for relationship help?
Don't feel like a dick, least you're being honest.mike1234 said:im 17 and well... i dont like to say it but she isnt very physicly attracive tbh, feel a bit of a dick for saying it but hell =S
My advice is to pass up. Due to the fact being a teenager should be all about
physical attractiveness not the whole emotional deal.
Sounds like pretty poor advice to me, as a teenager. Sure, we aren't as emotionally stable as people a few years older than us, but if we get used to judging people on looks alone in high school, we'll do the same thing in the real world. That is simple human pattern forming.
Instead, the people I like to be with are people who I find interesting. Furthermore, I think the standard of "hot" is over rated. I'll take an average girl over Megan Fox any day, because average people don't look like they're made out of plastic.
I realize that I most likely will have to deal with a lot of emotional instability and such, like you said, trying to go for emotion rather than physical attraction, but I'd rather have my heart broken than train myself to be shallow.
And then there's cases like my brother, who started going out with a girl in sophmore year because of emotional attraction, and has now, 10 years later, has been married to her 5 years.
B) I said physically attractive as in WHAT YOU FIND ATTRACTIVE if you find the girl sexually attractive why does it matter that she is considered "average" by society.
C) You're not training yourself to be shallow you are enjoying the few teenage years you have
D) When your brother is like 40 - 50 he may regret some of the things he turned down.
Another point, hey you're just an exception as I spoke about but don't fuck up your teenage years, you should enjoy them with as many females as you can if you do find miss right in your teenage years consider taking a break from her for a few months of a year or two and go out with other women otherwise you might feel like you missed out.
I guess it all fits in to the same perspective that made me choose to be a sort of traditionalist straight edge. Non-violent, non-judging, but still abstaining from a few things. I enjoy my life a lot, and if I'm with someone I'd enjoy it even more. However, I'm just not really comfortable with having sex with people I don't really care about.
edit-
But, I do agree with the idea of making sure I don't spend all my time with someone I'll regret later. I want to be careful not to waste my time with someone I'll eventually want to leave anyway, but I don't feel the need to chase after everyone.
