Feel free to add rules.
Even the married people like me, who now know what they should have known then, can add to the rules.
Let me start with these 5.
1. After a break up, never get back together.
2. Never seriously date someone you met at a bar
3. Never dump your family for a love interest
4. Get medicals together before sex
5. Never date someone who won't stop seeing their ex

10. If they don't like your family, and/or no one in your family likes them, they're not worth the trouble.
11. Never try to have a serious relationship with a one night stand.
12. Once a whore/manwhore, always a whore/manwhore.
13. Never let your lover have absolute control over your life. Who your friends can/can not be etc.

See, It happened again. People go to bars for 3 reasons
1. Alcoholism
2. One night stands (especially with a side of VD)
3. To meet someone they think is a loser like them, so they spend spend the rest of thier life commisserating together.
PS Forget where was I 2 years ago when you needed me. Where was I 15 years ago when I needed me?At my house, we listen to both kinds of music: Led and Zeppelin!

If she/he has any obsessive traits.......RUN and never look back. Those are always bad signs.
Examples:
-arranging things by alphabet (serious)
-having to so things in a certian order no matter what{**Dirty South Crew**}

18. Don't date someone with an addiction. Drugs, gambling, porn, nothing. They're just going to lie about it and hide it from you, and you can't fix it for them. And people with deep-seated problems will not scruple to steal from you. Point them in the direction of a 12-step group and walk away.
19. People generally get better at this when they get older, but don't date someone who can't live within his or her means. They'll just treat you like a wallet.
20. Speaking of wallets, if he or she doesn't at least OFFER to pick up or split the tab on the first date, don't let there be a second date. If you want to treat, then by all means, do so--but your date should at least offer. It's good manners and demonstrates that they're considerate.
21. Speaking of considerate, don't date someone who's an ******* to waiters, bartenders, and other service industry folk.
22. Don't date someone who rants about the ex. It shows that either they're not over the ex or they've got a screw loose somewhere.
23. If you're not feeling the chemistry, just BREAK UP. Don't string them along, use them for sex, or hope that maybe it'll happen eventually if you hang around long enough--it won't. Here's a line you can use: "I'm really sorry, I think you're a great person, but this isn't working out for me. Bye."
24. Unless the SO is in another state or country, dump in person. It doesn't have to be a long, drawn-out thing. Go to their place, use the line from the previous item and leave. If you can ask them out and screw them, then you should have enough balls to end it.
25. If you're over the age of 25, avoid people who don't have:
a. Decent credit (i.e. pays bills on time)
b. Full-time job (unless they are in graduate school or the military)
c. Their own place, unless they're a caregiver for a sick parent
Once one hits 25, one should be enough of an adult to be able to provide for oneself and manage one's money. Don't date someone who isn't. They will only be a drain on you.
26. Don't date a slob if you're a neat-freak, a cat person if you love dogs, a health nut if you're not, a vegetarian if you love meat, a commie pinko if you're a right-wing nutjob, a gun-lover if you're a pacifist, an atheist if you love Jesus, or any other combination of diametrically opposed principles. Sure, the contrast will add excitement for a while, then you'll just end up shouting at each other all the time.Last edited by limniade; 05-21-2007 at 11:38 PM.
"This," I said pleasantly, "is known as getting it on."
