Quoting Capoeira:

Dating is to determine if you are suitable for marriage.



Not sure I agree with this

Oh wow add me to the boat too. I have a Turkish boyfriend and I'm an 18 yr old female currently living in America. he's never asked me for money or anything, he doesn't have much money though either. Sometimes I feel like I'm doing something completely crazy... my family atleast thinks it's insane..that he's using me because I'm a lot younger than he is. but I'm following my heart and I quit caring what they say. sometimes I feel so lost though. I hope I can go over and see him soon, i'm looking for internships that will send me. Just follow your heart, and there's no harm in going again if you already have it booked, just tell him that you don't have much money and if he really cares he'll drop it. I honestly wish you the best of luck with this!!

Sincerely,
Evadne

Dating can't be solely meant for marriage, can it?? Dating means so many things, feeling loved, giving love, having fun, sharing things with a soulmate.. And eventually marriage maybe, or living together. But the definition mentioned above is not mine.. :-S

Quoting Capoeira:

Hi Ladies:
I was reading your posts. I just wanted to say that I think somewhere people have forgotten the point of dating. Dating is to determine if you are suitable for marriage. It seems like people here are falling in love, planning marriages and then determining if it is right for them. Come on ladies! If it looks like a rat, smells like a rat, acts like a rat...IT IS A RAT!!! It does not matter which country this he/she rat comes from. I have traveled widely and have met charming men from my own country, USA, South America to Europe and women too...people will try to get over if they feel that they can. You have to teach people to respect you. My mother always said, "if you lie down on the floor, don't be surprised when you get stepped on!" Don't get desperate. Love WILL find you when it's time. I am a christian and know that God has plans to prosper us, bless us and give us true happiness. Wait!



Totatly agree with you...and i guess lots of men agree with this defination,others,are just having fun !

As I read these posts, I don't think for some of you dating is an option. Due to your boyfriends living abroad. Long distant relationships can be very difficult as I have experienced. We all have that fairy tale we dream about, meeting that special someone. Sometimes there's a happy ending and sometimes there's not. Just some personal thoughts of mine from experience to think about. I use to think that my heart doesn't deceive you, but in fact your heart does. I think that's where the problem lyes, that women think to much with their heart and not enough with their brain. I'm not saying you shouldn't feel or be emotionless, but most of us women know when something doesn't sit right and there are red flags. But then our heart tells us different and we ignore these signs. First be smart about it, use your head, then follow your heart. If it's meant to be in your plan, it will happen. Believe me, I am too a hopeless romantic I will admit. But using my brain has led me to more successful relationships in my life. You just never know what God has planned for you. I wish and pray your fairy tales come true. I always love a happy ending.

the biggest advantage is that''u wont have to pay for food when u go a restaurant and wont have to pay for a film in other words u wont pay when u go out bcos they ll always be ready to pay for everything (no matter they have money or not ,they find it smehow)

disadvantage ,u ll get bored of listening same love words...bcos english is pooor of love words...or im wrong i think turkish is reach in love words anyway...its my perspective

My advice,

Girls grab the advantage,and get over the disadvantage lol

You can always learn Turkish lol

İ just translated this ,and ramayan is right,its so sweet

Sana ne demeliyim bilmiyorum,
Güneşim desem güneş batıyor,
Hayatım desem hayat kısa,
Gülüm desem oda soluyor,
Sana canım demeliyim.
Çünkü bu can seninle yaşıyor

What i must say to you,i don't know
İ wish to say My Sun,sun is sinking
İ wish to say,My life,Life is short,
İ wish to say,My rose',it wilt...can be 'my smile'it fade
İ must say 'my soul' to you
Because this soul,living with you .
