Yup, he seems to like it (and Juri's Nodame character). He's been meaning to watch it for a while, but never got around to it, so I'm making him watch it when I'm visiting him for the weekend. _________________

I think it's more than communication skills that dictates whether someone can have a long term relationship.
And I don't think it's about the relationship when you get in it. It's about timing, and getting to the point where you can have a relationship. You can't be in a relationship without the initial meeting.
It's the initial meeting that is the problem. _________________

I'm going to just answer your first question even though that's probably not what you're really focusing on.
I think that this is the case for a lot of people I know. Not because of the communication skills, but because it's hard to find the right person to connect with. And even though you find a person that you feel that you can really connect with, it's still all about timing, mutual feelings, etc. Sometimes I feel like I'm in the "single forever" category, but sometimes there comes someone who makes me think otherwise. Relationships are just so confusing. Oops, was that a tangent? _________________

I'm resigned to that notion.
Seriously.

Hmm. I think I'll always dream and wonder, but I'd have to agree with you. I've resigned myself. _________________

Not that much older.
And I don't think age is an issue. Being single at 20 and being single at 50 is the same deal. _________________

Pretty much all of us have been raised with a certain expectation about love and relationships. Unfortunately, this is the fairy-tale "happily ever after" kind that I feel is the problem. How many here feel their life won't be complete unless they have someone to love and share it with? Destiny, love at first site, soulmate - all garbage in my opinion because they lull one into a complacency about a relationship. A relationship isn't an endstate; it's a continual work up until the very end. Every decision after the start of the relationship has an effect on both parties, so there is no longer an "I" anymore. This was the reason for my recent break-up. My decisions for my life had major consequences to hers, and although she was willing to accept it, it took its toll and I couldn't continue to do that to her. She deserved better and can now have it. My decision no longer effects her life, with the result being I likely won't ever love anyone anymore.
Love is a luxury. It's great to have, but you don't need it to live your life. Why has stories of true love and romance been popular for as long as humans have been telling tales? Because a relationship based on love has always been rare. Throughout the history of mandkind, relationships have always been about the advantages and benefits it would bring to both parties. A relationship based on love is a very recent incarnation. This is why I feel many relationships fail: it begins with unrealistic expectations and continues with a lack of insight on what's needed to be done. Stop trying to find a soulmate and just enjoy the company. If something develops from there, then start thinking about making it last.
