When is the best time to start dating? I mean, not start dating a single person, but dating in general? What age, and under what circumstances?
From: Magus Date: Tue Nov 16 22:49:32 MST 2004
Like the supposed age of accountability, an age for dating to begin is different for everyone; my personal preference is that kids be able to legally drive first just because I think it's stupid to have parents drop the two off at the mall and come back to pick them up an hour later, you know?
From: my_2cents - webmaster Date: Tue Nov 30 08:41:03 MST 2004
Um, well. That is a good point, but I mean more along the lines of when should a person start after such criteria is met? (criteria: being able to drive, etc.)

I think that people who are to young to get married shouldn't be looking. On the other hand telling teens not to hang with the oposite sex is kind of pointless. I think a less comitment oriented atmaspher is what is needed. Enter group dateing!! a bunch of friends get togather and hang out every one has fun no ones heart gets broken. A good age to start that is as soon as the kid can walk. When some one is ready to be married they should start dateing.

Interesting idea there, Matt. Removing the whole separation, and allow for more communication and friendship. However, I don't think this is best on so many levels just because of the fact that guys need to talk to guys about stuph, and girls don't about those things... and vice versa.
What you are saying is possible, but not everyone is inclined or availible to make such circumstances availible. Plus, parents are quite *QUITE* inclined to not allow guys to be hanging around their little, precious baby girls... (like, my sister... my dad just was saying that my sister needs to stop hanging around boys so much... he said she is probably "thinking" about "those things" and it is "not for her to be thinking about at her age").... Don't ya just love parents overly concerned for their children?

The whole group dating thing is pretty nice, but sometimes I like to get to know the girl a little better, which requires more private/intimate settings. There should be some way for the two to be able to talk one-on-one face-to-face in private. For example, I went to a friend's house to watch Elf and play football a week or so ago. I'm attracted to my friend's younger sister, so it worked out both ways as there were a few other "attractors" and "attractees" present (we all have hard times letting the others know about our feelings; we're kind of funny and sad at the same time...). After playing football, we all went back inside, and I and my friend's sister went into the kitchen and sat on two barstools and talked for about an hour and a half by ourselves. This night was stupendous because not only did we get to enjoy the company of multiple friends, but also a little time together. It's kind of a mix between group and single dating.

I wasnt thinking only hang out with your friends when there are other friends there 2 wach you. 1 on 1 is important as (at least in my group) NOTHING imortant is talked about in groups over 3 and even then there is always a good bit of unseriusness. for myself if I spend to much time alone with some one I have a crush on they tend to find out i have a crush on them then when i am no longer interseted they go oh no im not worth it and cry....or just feel used (emtionaly) and the HAVE BEEN it was just a crush. Being to seriuse just hurts young people.
Jon you said: "What you are saying is possible, but not everyone is inclined or availible to make such circumstances availible. Plus, parents are quite *QUITE* inclined to not allow guys to be hanging around their little, precious baby girls... " i think actualy dateing them would be worse then just haveing them along to hangout with a bunch of friends.

I wasn't saying that dating would be better than hanging out... I was just saying that tend to be a little on edge when they know their teenage kid is in a tight knit group of friends including the opposite sex.

Well, it is sort of a double standard ... On the one hand the kids should be in school, learning stuff and becoming intelligent. But, if the kids stay in school and bury their face in books all they time they would learn nothing about how to handle the opposite sex. It\'s not like kids can focus with all of the raging hormones anyways.
