The cynical view is not necessarily the factual, realistic or 'grown-up' one.Yosharian said:Who said anything about healthy relationships?Danzavare said:Which is why statisticians get all the girls. xD
That kind of mindset is childish. That's like the people who buy 'pick up guides' and use them as gospel. Your statistic is meaningless. It does not do anything to show that relationships founded on a superficial beginning are healthy. It'd be like me quoting that 50% of marriages end in divorce instead of making a case. Even if we accept most people are superficial and are happy to continue relationships that why, it does not suddenly make them good relationships or something we should suggest to others.
Statistics coupled with cynicism are not an appropriate substitute for stronger foundations to a relationship.
We're talking about reality here.
People need to stop pretending it is. *Facepalm*
