    I think, dating as a majority understands it is a quite U. S. American ritual. My youth had the same goals in respect of ''dating'', but with different - emm - procedures. I enjoyed reading your text :)

    Probably the biggest changes have been in the last 20 years , the 1960's was the decade of the greatest social changes , and still influences right to this day. Dating definitely has changed THAT much , esp more recently.

    The basics haven't changed much, but there are some notable differences that are obviously because of the passage of time. They both have fun, they have a good time, and they want to see each other again afterwards.

    I wish I were growing up in that era , much simpler time and less stigma and drama in the dating world.

      How do we know? Everyone says "It was better back then" but many of the issues we have today just weren't talked about back then. Also I'm sure people back then had their own unique issues in dating.

    Not really. Maybe it was a bit more formal back then and now even a girl might do the first move.

      My woman doesn't control me. There are women who don't want to control men, and there are women who will try to assert control only until they are challenged.

      You already are with someone. Those guys who date nowadays are being treated as walking ATM's and you can't do shit about it. If she likes you, she'll fuck you. If she doesn't (or changed her mind) and you will not give up, you could be accused of rape. Good luck getting out of that. I could go on and on, but I hope that you get the point.
