Well frankly very true. When you put it like that i suppose i have been on very few "dates" its generally a case of, see a bird in a pub or club and one drunken shag leads to another and something may come of that.

i think the traditional sense of dating would probably come after sex... when you are in a relationship you will go out together alone. before that its very drunken mostly.

plus even the most minging bird dont look so bad after 8 pints of stella and 4 tequilas...lol

wgy wyzcrack does the English system of courting somehow displease you.

dont forget you still have higher teenage pregnancy rates so you are not doing it all right.

"[...]traditional sense of dating would probably come after sex[...]" - Dudeman
Maybe that's an over there thing. Over here dating is more of a guy looks good by planning entire evening thus getting laid thing. While not generally the stated intent, it is what the majority of guys I know end up portraying it as in conversation.

I think the majority of the problems over here stem from the focus being on sex rather than a lasting relationship. Or, worse most likely, neither party thinking about it at all. Maybe that's just my corrupted viewpoint though...

That's what i thought you did all day anyway James



And I agree with most of the stuff said here, the UK is more about drunken hijinx nowadays whereas USA is about the loving relationships.

oh thats pure crap,

many rrelationships are started in nightclubs, just because we do it different without all the courting and hooplah first does not mean the relationships are any less worthwhile.

and it is total crap to suggest otherwise, is it not sex and the city my ex girlfriends favorite show that depicts a bunch of slags in new york looking to get laid most of the time and not really relationships.

hmm i think a serious case of living in a bubble is occuring here.

just in edit i am not trying to insult anyone here, if this is worded strongly, then dont take it to heart.

Re: I scored :)

The problem is though, Sex in the City is actually what girls are like. I know a lot more girls like those in that retarded show then girls who are looking for an actual relationship.


But guys are the pigs.... go figure..

Ok fair enough, it's not all as I may have depicted and of course there are plenty of relationships that take off but I was trying to say was in UK there is much less 'dating' leading up to the relationship.
