IWalkAlone Posted February 23, 2007 Posted February 23, 2007 You've seen it in movies and TV dozens of times. A man and woman work together or know each other somehow but don't get along. They clash, they bicker, and than out of the blue they suddenly start making out and maybe have sex right away. WTF? Does this really happen in real life? Every time in my life I've dated or had sex it was with someone I got along well with. If I like someone, should I start giving her crap to get her interested? Should I persue women I don't get along with? If I were to approach woman at work who don't get along with me and start making out with them, I'm sure they'd make a sexual harassment complaint against me. Comments?

Movies and reality are two different things IMO. I've never known anyone who's been involved in such a thing. I think that's a problem with romance/love/chick flicks. People see them and wonder if that could really happen or better yet, want it to happen that way. Sure in movies it does but I wouldn't count on that as the way to find someone. It's just a movie. Could it happen? Yes. Does it? probably not unless their already together. But just because I haven't seen it doesn't mean it doesn't. I don't know about you but I wouldn't want to pursue anything with someone I didn't get along with. There's a reason I don't get along with them.
Spinderella Posted February 23, 2007 Posted February 23, 2007 i've witnessed this in real life. people who couldnt be in the same room without arguing, who everyone thought hated each other. suddenly to everyones surprise they started dating overnight. they obviously liked the challenge, and the passion.
boshemia Posted February 24, 2007 Posted February 24, 2007 I've been there... His best friend was dating my best friend, but the tension between us was immediate. The night we met he was drunk on Tequlia and I threatened to hit him over the head with the bottle of tequlia if he spoke to me again. He was obnoxious, self-centred, and as far as I was concerned a waste of space. For six months we fought everytime we were around each other, sometimes things got downright nasty. Then one night our best friends took us to a small party at another friends house and everyone went on an alcohol run and left us alone. Hours later they never came back! We went for a drive in the hills and the car broke down. Seven months later we were still together. He was still self centered, and I had no self-esteem so that's what did us in... But looking back, he still makes me smile. We had a lot of fun together, and really it was one of the best relationships in my life. I don't think I ever really got over him, and something tells me that if we had been in different places in our lives we could have worked out. *sigh* So yeah, I guess it does happen... but I'm not sure how well they last under normal situations.
