Romance:


Marry someone who inspires you to live up to their expectations of you, not down to them.

In a romantic relationship, there is room for only one significant career.

Immature people live vicariously through those they are romantically involved with.

Dating should be about two people getting to know each other, not about one person entertaining the other.

Dating defeats its own purpose. We date in order to get to know each other, but when people are on a date they are usually on their best behavior and pretend to be something they are not.

Dating is a trap. If you enjoyed the things you did on the date, then you think you like the person, when really you only enjoyed the entertainment.

Men imagine having sex with every woman they go out with. Women imagine marrying every man they go out with.

When being set-up on a blind date, a man will ask what she looks 
like, whereas a woman will ask what he does for a living, which is a polite way 
of asking how much money he has. 

For men, romance is a Catch-22. In order to get a date with a woman, a man has to have a reputation, but to get a reputation he has to go out with a woman.

The reason men date younger women almost exclusively is simply because younger women say yes when men ask them out, and older women don't.

Women frequently complain that there is a double-standard inwhich it's okay for men to date younger women, but it isn't okay for women to date younger men. In reality, the double-standard is that it's okay for women to date older men, but it isn't okay for men to date older women, as women are the ones who decide who is going out with who.

The two major problems of romance are that women refuse to believe that men don't change, and men don't understand that women change constantly for no reason.

To women, there are two kinds of men. The kind you have sex with, and the kind you just want to be friends with. To men, there are two kinds of women. The kind you just have sex with, and the kind you marry.

Before marrying someone you must determine two things: 1) how much of your personality you are willing to sacrifice in order to make it last, and 2) how much they are hiding from you.
