"I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best." - Marilyn Monroe
Of course this site is for Fab Gals only, but let's face it: boys are a part of life. Can't live with them, can't live without them. And with the changing roles of women in the world, it seems like the dating rules are changing too. Every FG seems to have her own opinion, and I want to know yours. Here are the big questions these days:
Who asks out who? Does the boy have to do the asking, or is okay for girls to do it, too? Some think it's gutsy for a gal to ask the guy out for a change, but some say it's his job. When is it okay?
Who pays on the date? Some are traditional, and prefer the boy at least offer to pay. Others think the gal should have the right to at least pay her share. Personally, I think it depends who did the asking, but you should always be polite and offer up your half.
Is it okay to date more than one person? At my school, you usually are either in a relationship or not. Of course, once you are exclusive, dating around is cheating. But in the early stages, is it okay to be seeing a few different people?
When is it Facebook-official? You can't deny it - putting your relationship (or break-up) on Facebook or Myspace is a big deal. For some couples, that is the defining moment, because everyone will be talking. I give kudos to some chicas I know that decided not to put that on their profile at all. But when do you decide the relationship is Facebook-ready?
How much is too much? PDA (Public Displays of Affection) are a big no-no for some. But how much is okay? Where is the limit - holding hands, kissing on the cheek? You should have a limit somewhere. It may not bug you, but it may be weird for people around you!
So those are the biggies. It doesn't really matter if you follow the more traditional rules of dating or if you have a set of your own. It's important to stick with what you're comfortable with, but give the boys a break - they're still learning the game!
