By gender roles I don't mean Victorian Era gender roles and by relationships I don't really mean 20 year old college lovers. I mean serious long term relationships.

Most relationships that I've seen are fairly old fashioned. The man works and the woman stays at home and raises the kids. This isn't perfect but what is?

I've seen studies that have suggested things like men that stay at home are more likely to cheat, women that earn more than their partner are less happy (they think he's lazy and that they do everything), women and men prefer it when the woman is more attractive than the man and men that do housework get less sex.

So, my question is would MOST couples be happier in LTRs if they followed the old gender rules and are the "modern" kind of relationships against our nature?

I know there are exceptions. I'm talking about the majority.

Modern Talking released a streak of some melodic pop/dance albums during the mid 80s, as well as Blue System (Diehter Bohlen's project) did in the late 80s.

Although overally the debut album from Alphaville is the best German album from the 80s in my opinion, including the synth-pop classics, Big In Japan, Forever Young, Sounds Like A Melody

What about you?

So, I met this girl at a social event and I got to get her name and Facebook that day.

Shared around 3-4 short paragraphs of conversation each day until I asked her to 'hang out' with me which I perceived as a date but not sure how she perceives it.

I asked her to a particular event that was not available on Saturday. so I tried ask her if she wanted to meet up on Sunday and also participate in the event I originally planned for someday next week. She said: 'sure! let's do both.' I had a really positive feeling so far.

However on Sunday, she said that she was out of town and hence wasn't able to turn up. Instead she said that she would like to arrange an alternative date which was on Wednesday and I did see her that day and had dinner.

The date went of for two hours of pleasant conversation without any awkward pauses nor phone interactions.

Due to my busy schedule, I didn't talk to her for two days until I tried texting her how she was doing. (got her phone number during first date)

She didn't reply my text for two days, so I tried talking to her on facebook. She said that she didn't read the phone text and she isn't in the habit of doing so. (seemed liked an excuse to me) I replied back and am currently waiting for the next reply from her.

So it seems like she kinda forgot about the second date or maybe there was a confusion?

Additional info: She is new to the country and seems like to travel a lot. Also seems to use Facebook or just social means a lot less than modern human beings.

I am not very experienced so I really don't know if I am bothering her or whether she is just simply putting other stuff into priority at the moment.

I know it is kinda long but the story is interesting in my opinion! Give me your opinions! :)
