<p>What are everyone's opinions on relationships (as far as boyfriend/girlfriend) after graduation. For example, do you think its possible to have a successful relationship if you go to the same/different college? Do you think its a good idea to go into college in a relationship? Do you think spouses often cheat on high school sweethearts? Just submit your thoughts on the subject in general.</p>
<p>Whatever you do, don't choose your college because of a boyfriend/girlfriend!!!!!!! Yikes! That is all.</p>
<p>Most of the couples I know split :/ I'm personally refusing to get in relationship this year for that reason.</p>
<p>yea i seriously love my g/f, i think she is the funniest and most gorgeous girl in the world, i even love her annoying, bratty qualities, and it will be hard to find someone i feel the same way about... even with that said she is a year younger than me and will still be in high school when im a freshman in college. We are both used to having pretty active social lives and i know we wont stay 2gether while im away, in fact i really wouldnt want to pressure her into trying something like that and ruining her senior year. Im sure if your going to the same college it can work but if your in diff. places its basically a 1 in a mill chance of success. It really depresses me every time i think about whats going to happen...</p>
<p>As far as the cheating thing goes.. yea im sure it happen. Ive never really "cheated" on my g/f by my definition but i did kiss a girl back when we first started going out. I told her about it and told her the situation and we worked through it but she let me know she would never forget about it and if it ever happened again we were over.</p>
<p>just a question:</p>
<p>do nerdy girls ever get boyfriends?</p>
<p>yes.. my old school was exactly like the high schools in the movies, the athletes\preps\rich kids hang out, the edge kids have their own group,the nerdy kids have their clique, and so on. It was perfect b/c you could interact with anybody and still get back to the comfort of your group whenever. The nerdy girls usually went out with other nerdy guys and a few of the prettier ones actually dated guys from the popular gang.</p>
<p>hmmm i see. but here in southern cali, nerdy guys are usually glassed, chubbby, shirt tucked-in, and etc....therer was a time when there were actually hot nerds...but not anymore.</p>
<p>ppl change A LOT in high school... when i was a soph there was this ugly frosh girl who always hung out with a girl that i dated. The ugly girl was really a great girl so i was nice to her and we talked and stuff, basically we were friends. Anyway her soph year comes around and this girl is gorgeous and tells me about how much she has always liked me and how she appreciated me actually liking her for who she is. Unfortunately like most girls that get hott she couldnt turn down all the attention she was getting and do to inexperience she fell for all the tricks and made some big mistakes.... but anyway the point is that ppl change physically a lot over the years so you should really look for more.</p>
<p>i personally think that a relationship after high school is a good start. Relationships in high school are like puppy love. Most of the time, couples will end up going their seperate ways.</p>
<p>My boyfriend is in his freshman year at college, I'm a senior in high school - we're fine. He goes to a school about an hour away. I won't lie, we almost broke up at the beginning of the year, but we decided to relax for a few weeks to see if it would get better once we both got adjusted. We also had a fight at that point about me applying to colleges - where he went, I decided way before I ever met him, I would never go to. It was a "over my dead body" sort of thing. He got mad I wouldn't apply and my first choice is American (Washington, D.C.) which is a good distance from OH. But we relaxed our relationship for a bit, I went to visit him and we talked about it. It worked out and we're good. </p>
<p>Keep in mind though, my boyfriend and I live in different cities and have been doing the long distance thing since before he went to college. We're used to not seeing eachother much. </p>
<p>As for nerdy girls getting boyfriends - they do. Sometimes I'm shocked that a nerdy girl gets a guy so hot...I know that's mean, but, hey...I wasn't the only one surprised.</p>

I'm living proof that we do :)</p>
<p>Me too :)
Although I went to a sci&tech school so we were all nerds. I was just one of the cooler nerds. Most of the time it was TOTAL NERDS (ie. pocket protector, thick glasses, spends entire day in the computer systems laboratory) professing their love for me...I got two notes in my backpack alone, lol. </p>
<p>The key is to NOT look for someone cooler than you, because if you're a nerd and expect the varsity football QB to ask you to prom, you are seriously disturbed.</p>
<p>I've dated the same woman now for 6 years, and we started dating in high school. So, it can be done. However, I was lucky that my dream school happened to be 15 miles away (UCLA, I was from the SF Valley.) </p>
<p>As far as the cheating comment goes, I can't say. I don't imagine the rate is that much higher with high school sweethearts. I've never so much as thought about dating another person, personally.</p>
