And here I thought Geometry class was about math :(
I spent most of my time in Geometry sleeping or imagining the boy who sat in front of me naked. Mostly sleeping though. I loved that class, it was right at the end of the day, too.

Anyway, I don't mind complimenting married or otherwise attached people (I'm pretty terrible at flirting though). I think a lot of people in long term relationships tend to sort of forget that they got into a relationship partly because someone found them attractive in some way. The biggest reason not to would be to keep myself from developing a crush on someone who was unavailable.

Sounds like heaven to me. In my Geometry class, we do active projects with group members, so we can't really get away with sleeping or dazing off...

OT: I like the OPs zombie analogy. Yes, like how school or work can be, it can just be something that we as a society just kind of shamble into.

The way a lot of our society has been structured since the start of the industrial revolution is like a conveyor belt.

1. Get born.
2. Go to school.
3. Go to college
4. Get married. Buy a house.
5. Have children. Work for 40 years.
6. Retire. Move into a retirement district.

This isn't always set in stone with every individual, but it is whats expected. How many times have your parents said: "When you have kids/get married/go to college/retire"...? Its what keeps our economy stable because our economy depended on servitude.

That being said, marriage can still deviate from the whole "zombie" analogy if the people involved let it.
