I respect all your opinions, but opinions are not necessarily representations of reality.

i've anticipated break ups before. :-x but those are also the relationships in which i learn the most about myself and what i'd want in a relationship/partner. i can often 'predict' how a relationship is going to turn out before i even start dating them. so why date them if it doesn't look completely promising? i guess i live by the "experience things for myself" moreso than just thinking about things and how you'd want it to be. i learn best through experiencing.. even if it's something i know is going to happen all along. also, as cynical as i am, i can't help but think that breaking up is inevitable to any relationship i'm coming into
