Mr. Right Now - Page 2

I think, in college, that a lot of people are with that Mr/Ms Right Now because they're just damned lonely, and it's convenient to have someone to talk to/eat lunch with/screw/watch movies with. The weird thing is, that most of these people are planning to break up after graduation. It's like, they were good enough to mess around with during college, but they don't want to be tied down to that person after college.

Maybe since I know Mr. Munchkin is Mr. Right, I am more critical.

Think about it.

Divorce rate is 50%. That means you will either last or you wont/ Everything is 50%. ODDS are you'll pull through. BS, you will or you won't there is no inbetween.

I want to ask he ut. So0 I will. NOw what?? YOU want a piece of me?

I had a friend who had been dating a Mr. Right Now for about two months, and she swore they had no future ahead of them. Two months after that, they were married.

I think it's too difficult to plan. Relationships are crazy... you never know what's going to happen.

I dated someone for a year until it became obvious that he wasn't Mr. Right. I had to end things because he thought that I was Miss Right. He wanted to marry me, and I just didn't want the same thing. I thought that stringing him along would be tremendously unfair of me so I ended it. I guess that he was my Mr. Right Now except I didn't realize it. If both people want the same thing, I think that Mr./ Miss Right Now is an okay concept. When one person wants more, it needs to end. It's not fair to lead someone on in my opinion.

ok, so why can't Mr. Right for now just be a good guy friend?

I have a guy friend who knows that I wouldn't want anything from him like that, we even kinda dated before I came to that conclusion. We hang out, watch movies, and talk. If you are lonley, that is what friends are for.

On a different note, I did meet Mr. Right. And he actually feels the same about me. There is a feeling there that cannot be replaced with a person "just for now." My question would be, why would you want to miss out on that with a person who is just there to fill space?
