Your current relationship, be honest, Did you "settle"?

Honestly though, I don't know how I ended up so lucky. I rolled a natural 20 on my relationship, even though I bombed my CHA.
That might be the funniest post I see all day.

I am in my 20s and I can honestly say I have never felt the urge to be in a relationship with anyone. Tried it in high school because you know "its the norm" and I dunno, it's just not my thing.

I guess I just enjoy my own company more than others.

I'm single because I have neither the time, money, or patience to deal with a girlfriend.
The lack of money means you won't have to deal with one, don't worry.

No, my girlfriend is exquisite.

To that post, I feel exactly the same way. My CHA ain't great, but I treat her well, don't act like a dick or try and push her round. She has had enough of that from an ex, and it ain't my style. Yes I have a low CHA but style (dress terribly simple though). :p

My gf is a tall asian bikini model and fitness competitor. She is beautiful, has wonderful fake breasts (which I for one just love), and also happens to be the sweetest and funniest person I know. Additionally, she likes video games and her favourite TV show is Game of Thrones.

So I did okay. Not sure how I would/could do better.

Settle? nope.
Perfect example of why...
Me: "Could you grab me a beer? I'm playing Deus Ex."
Her: "Get it yourself, I'm finishing Fable 3... and get me one too!"
I've got a keeper.

...The hell do you think?

I didn't settle. Then she went away. I realise it wouldn't have been settling. I realise she was as close to everything I want as is possible.

Not happy right now.

Physically? No. As close to perfection as she can get (according to me and media-perception on how a woman should look) - Huge fake knockers, reasonably tall, very slim, well-formed and large rear, etc. Most physically attractive mate I'v had so far.
Mentally? Eh..No, but at times, I do wish she'd have a better general know-how about the stuff I do. Then again, she plays as much video-games as I do (even MMORPG), so one should not complain.

I really don't care how happy you are - unless you're extremely attractive, have loads of money, or possess a silver tongue that can persuade just about anyone, yeah, your ass settled.

Did I settle? No. I hit the fucking Jackpot.

We game together (playing things like Reach, Whacked, Rugrat's Scavenger Hunt, Pokemon Puzzle League, Left 4 Dead...), She and I cook together and her baked goods, other than being mostly home made, are the best baked goods I've ever had (just finished off a Cookies-N-Cream cupcake), She's the same flavor of nerd as I am, we watch ZP, Escape to the Movies and, Big Picture together, we have the same sense of humor, we not only finish each others sentences for each other but we sometimes say the same things in unison, unprovoked as though we share a psychic link.

The added bonuses? She's freaking adorable. Anime fans, she's Mikuru levels of adorable. Her family loves me to the point that they've let me move in. At this point we're still BF/GF but engagement and marriage are definite. Neither of us want kids so we figure we'll fill that void in our lives by...well, we're still getting ideas thanks to the show Oddities and our local comic and, classic games shops.

I found my one...well, technically she found me but still; The point is that we're together. I wouldn't have it any other way :3
That's sort of like me and my GF. The gaming, finishing sentences, and the nerd link. Although we've only been going out for about 4 months (I miscounted in my earlier post), so we haven't gotten to anything truly intimate, aside from some hardcore snuggling. XD

That and Both of us make baked goods. Her sugar cookies are pretty good, but my Chocolate chip will wreck anything. Hands down.

Well congrats to you. Glad it's working out.

But its already a social community, I mean, I see your point, but it can already act as one. Personally, I'm not fond of long distance relationships. I actually dislike them so much, I think I may have missed out on a great girl, I still wonder sometimes.
Is she in your state? No? Then don't worry about it.

I've been there. It sucks dicks. Most people don't even have the common sense to realize a long distance relationship requires double the effort, meaning IMing only and no video or simple voice chat leads to shit tons of miscommunication. Then you'll start getting blamed for forgetting things when you never even had them told to you, and they'll go on and on about how she feels and when she wants to do things and blech

Put it to you like this: The stereotype about how not giving too much of a shit gets their attention is not just a stereotype. At least until you get older. Late twenties, early thirties. Just about everyone's mentality alters for the better by then. PATIENCE is in abundance...mostly. UNDERSTANDING isn't so rare you'd think she'd have to dig through an African mine to get some. Even issues about money are-
-Well no, that's always there even with the better girls. No one wants a jobless spouse. Understandable.

...Where the fuck was I going with this again? Oh right! Long distance!
Yeah, it just makes you bitter to the core so don't worry about it. My best friend pulls it off with her boyfriend. God bless her I say. But for the majority it's best to stay away from it.
...And go for someone who isn't in your age group, because, for the most part, men and women around 20-23 are painfully fucking childish.
