NOT this:
kids these days are so spoiled
when i was your age we had an animated disney castle intro
and we had to walk uphill both ways to see it
Barefoot, in the snow

No means No - Good dating advice, and a short Spanish lesson.
- Everyone at my school's idea of a relationship: Someone asks someone "Will you go out with me?" and the other person says yes. They hug in the hallways, hold hands in the morning before the bell rings, and they kiss at lunch. They say "I love you" after two days. The whole school agrees that they are the cutest couple ever and hopes that they will last.
- 'My' idea of a relationship: You start talking to each other and is in the "talking stage". One person asks you to go a date with them. You guys go a few more dates. You guys are dating. You guys act like a couple. You hug, you hold hands, you kiss. One person asks you to be their boyfriend/girlfriend. You guys are now officially a couple. You're in one of those relationships where you don't announce it to the whole world but you won't deny it if someone asked. You guys are comfortable around each other, you hang out outside of school. You say "I love you" when the time is right and when you actually mean it.
- My actual idea of a relationship: It's been two hundred years now and you are international enemies of the public, but none so much as to each other. You are engaged in a dangerous game of shadows and treachery, armed with the greatest minds and deadliest skills, playing on a board that spans every populated star system and the cyberspace that connects them all. Once, you stopped to think about what you'd do during that hypothetical final showdown, what all this was meant to show or prove to each other, but it dawned on you that there would never be such a moment. You know nothing so fulfilling as your devotion to each other, that any closure or end to your games would deprive you of meaningful occupation - and thus bring an end to civilisation.
