I don't mind them but here's a few reasons why not to date/post about it on Scratch:

-I don't care what you say about your 'maturity' level. If you're dating for a reason other than marriage, you're not mature enough. Some might disagree with this, but isn't that what dating is supposed to be about? If it's just for getting to know someone better, why is it such a "big deal"? There's no reason to call it something special.
-Another thing on the maturity issue: I'm sixteen and I don't think I'm mature enough for dating. Not because I don't think I'm mature, but I don't think that at this age I can look at a girl and honestly think I would want to date her because I would eventually want to marry her.
-Scratchers, no offense at all, are not relationship experts. Most have not dated before, and even if they have, they're still a little young to give dating advice. Plus, we're on Scratch for a reason: we like Scratch, which makes us at least a little nerdy which again means we're not exactly relationship experts.

Last one is my main point for me, im a nerd and dont know anything about this

DarthPickley · 2011-05-19 20:58:21

my english teacher says, "Do not date until you are 28, because young people do not understand love." Also, "Never tell a woman that they were pretty."
first one because of a story on an English Pretest where this guy wanted a love potion, but the guy he bought it from was implying that he would end up wanting a potion to get rid of her (He clearly showed that he had little understanding of what love is). The second is because someone said that in A Raisin in the Sun. There are other things he says like that.

I will quote my English teacher to back up all decisions to not date, until I am 30, which is the highest age he has said in saying the thing he said (he would not approve of that last statement; too vague.)

I don't see why we can't have a discussion about relationships here...as long as it is kept tasteful. However, as has been pointed out previously, you get what you pay for. The advice offered may not be useful to you. We have a wide range of ages and cultural backgrounds represented here - there are many opinions on how relationships should be managed. Let's try and keep an open mind.

Holy smokes, I was thinking about making one of these while amking a giant wolf statue in minecraft while listening to the doctor who theme!

I agree with every point here. As usual this sir and I share similar views.

Is it against the rules to post relationship stuff in the forums? No.

However, it is annoying and there are better websites for it. That means the only reason you're likely doing this is to... hmm... brag? I need a better word

Instead of "brag", how about "genuinely get advice from peers"? There's certainly nothing wrong with asking for advice here. Like Paddle mentions, the advice we receive might not necessarily be useful, but there's nothing wrong with posting a thread asking for advice from others. This pretty much goes for any online community, Scratch or otherwise.

As for finding this thread as an annoyance: if you find then annoying, then you don't need to post in them let alone read them. tongue

I can understand your point and respect it. Just monitor this thread, as I believe it may become a source of flame. I, as stated ten times, am just stating my opinion. And so, I would never like to generate flame and I just want to make sure that is understood smile

You'll probably want to remodify your original post then, then, to express it in terms of an opinion as it is perceived as a demand on Scratchers to not post threads with relationship as the topic.

One more thing: The best way to prevent a flame is to not post a topic that is likely to become flamebait at all, so always think before you post a topic. If you want, you can opt to have this thread closed on your own accord (hit the report button and ask a mod to close it on your behalf) or have it deleted outright (by deleting your first post on this topic). Otherwise, this thread can be monitored, but note that if thread gets too much to much to handle, then it will have to closed anyway.

When it comes to dating, it depends on how mature you act. If you're out to just grab a girl/boy to 'mess around' with, you're not mature enough. Sorry, it's true.
If you are genuinely in love with them, I don't see a problem. I mean if you're properly obsessed with each other: have feelings for and care about each other. That's okay in my eyes.
This is why relationships between 9 year-olds rarely work. You are too young to understand the ways of the world and all the 'stuff' about girls and boys. You are naive, and can't truly understand love. That's why I've waited 'till I know more about that sorta stuff and fell in love.
It's true - all my friends comment on how 'mushy' I am now. I'd die for my BF. Seriously, he's everything.

So yeah, it depends on if you believe you can make it last, and maybe marry. Marriage is the whole point of dating, so if you reckon you can stay together forever, go ahead! (I hope so!!)

Yes, the whole point of dating is marriage, so why date before you're old enough to get married?

Wait, so the minute you turn 18 you run out into the street, pick some guy/girl and run off and marry them immediately?

I think not ._.
If you meet someone you love, then why not get to know them BEFORE the age you can marry at? If you believe it's fate (as I do) what is wrong with it?? :L

I didn't say that? What are you talking about? I was saying that you shouldn't date before you are old enough to marry. I didn't say that you HAVE to go out and date someone the very second you're old enough to marry. Why did you think I said that?

I thought that you were hinting that it's bad to date before you're old enough...
You said that, I think?
I was just saying how I don't see how it's bad to get to know the person you love before age 18 smile

I was saying that, but I wasn't saying that you MUST go and date someone as soon as you're old enough to marry.

It isn't the age, its the maturity, ask your parents when you think your ready, they'll tell you, if your mind is set on "I'm old enough" or "I'm mature enough" You probably aren't.
May I ask, what do you believe is the point of dating? Marriage? Just for fun? Honestly, I want to know what you think.

Getting to know someone you are interested in MARRYING.

1. Yes
2. smile Good job, a little longer and you may feel more like it and ask you parents if they think you are mature. A person cannot tell their maturity as well as another, so they can't really say they are mature. Its immature to do that.
3. I would agree, plus in some ways it can be inappropriate seeing how some scratchers are younger.
