Should single people be allowed to post in relationship threads? Options

[Tung]

I been stalking the relationship forum alot lately, and there's some certain people who "try" to post helpful opinions and thoughts about the situation, when it's obvious they don't know what the fuck they are talking about. These are the people who are single, and never had a gf/bf in their entire life. How can a person who's been single all their life help someone who is asking for help about a problem with his/her gf/bf? They shouldn't, because they never had any experience to actually know what the OP is going through, and it's tiresome and annoying to read such ignorant post by these members. A prime example would be JClore. He's obviously single and never touched a girl in his life, and he's all over the relationship forum like he's some ladie's man who actually knows something.

This isn't member bashing btw, just using an example.

There are some basic advice that is understandable. Like about communication. There are other things that do piss me off.

Like teenagers that tell other teenagers that their high school romance isn't real love. and that teenagers don't know the meaning of real love. which is really rich considering it's teenagers giving the advice.

i hate people who respond by... "i'm very observant. i can tell what makes a relationship work. blah blah..."

if you were really that observant, you would be able to see a good match for you.

LOL are you kidding, it has nothing to do with being observant, it's about, as REB just stated above, TIME and the RIGHT person. if the right person isn't even f**king there, your being observant or not has nothing to do with anything.


and it sounds like you're just bitter about teenagers spouting off relationship advice because you've been in one where I guess maybe other teens kept putting you down about it. this is just an assumption so if i'm wrong, my bad, but don't get so generalizey about it, there are plenty of teenagers out there who know what they're talking about. whether or not someone's advice is worthy of listening to or following, depends on their own experiences, one teen may be tons more experienced in this subject than another, so just take it case by case.

another thing about the "real love," oftentimes, people who are outside of relationships are the ones that can see things the most clearly; this isn't about the actual topic of whether someone's love is real, moreso about accepting different perspectives.
