For someone to understand me :)
Because we're all a little complicated.

someone who will understand you..i think you have friends for that.
i dont necesarily get a bf to fufill a certain need, i dont think.
if i happen to like someone, then i would naturally want to be with them. and im not the go after type either..it just comes i guess =S
And once you get into a relationship you can enjoy the benefits:
have fun
feeling of belonging or having a bf/gf
have a serious relationship
have someone understand you
even to fufill your horny needs

but like i said, those things are benefits you enjoy by being in a relationship. and for me not necesarily using a certain reason to find one.
i
think that made sense

Good question.
I haven't dated yet.. so I really don't know. I only have a feeling that if I do start dating someone, my feelings for them will be lost. So, I don't know why.

For fun. I think people are often much too worried about an eventual goal, such as marriage. It's not the goal that matters; it's the path along the way.

Yep, I agree with that. But now, in my current relationship, we hope to last a long time, and hopefully get married too.

I haven't dated yet.
But I can tell you why I would want to.
To cuddle, to make out.
To feel that someone else cares about you as much as you care about them.
To feel loved.
To feel that people actually like you.
To feel attractive.
To feel protected.

I've dated a fairly decent amount... and it is fun VERY fun. It usually just starts off as fun but when you date someone you really care about it can turn into dating them for possibly marriage. And dating really is there for you to find the person you wanna spend the rest of your life with.

Hmmmm every relationship that my friends have been in (both male and female) they're all very serious about relationships and don't date for fun.
And as of yet they're all engaged and ready to be married and have very stable lives.
I'm the only that has yet to be engaged but only having a relationship with my girlfriend for a year and preparing for my baseball career has me tongue tied at the moment but I do agree with you based on my experience. My friends that have tried dating for just fun or going on a blind date for the hell of it have all ended in disaster.

I've never really been on an official date with a girl.
I hang out with them, and if we have chemistry we end up "going out", but that's just more hanging out more often and sex.
Dating is a waste of time at any age less than 25. Girls have no f**king clue what they want. Even the most solidly stable girl will dump you at pretty close to the 1 year mark.
Sadly I speak from experience. If you don't want to be like me, don't even think about relationships as a serious thing until you're 30.

thank you for the compliment. since you sound like such a delightful person, you can't be blamed for anything that has to do with your break ups. it's not like it takes two to tango or anything right?

i date so how can get ready for a marriage. you'll learn through past relationships whats right and wrong what to except and what to learn from. Some relationships don't last some do for a long period of time.
Also it gets to your taste in what you like. My context in describing isnt good...mybad.
