Ending your friendship with a person can be a tough decision.
Long distance relationships scare a lot of people, but should they?
Speaking from personal experience and anecdotes from friends, online dating is generally skewed in favour of women.
The world over the last few years seems to have been turned upside down. The flat earth society is gaining traction again and global warming is being actively debated.
The beginning of a relationship is undoubtedly the best part of one. It is during that period that most couples notice things about each other that make them wildly exclaim that they are made for each other.
Relationships come with their fair share of decision-making. Things that you never really struggled with before, such as what to eat, where to go, what to wear, when to sleep, etc. become a regular concern.

Any of us can face a situation where we start seeing red flags in a date. It can be something in their behaviour that seems shady, or you starting to dislike certain aspects of their personality. The skill needed to exit a bad date is a vital part of modern dating etiquette. In movies, especially chick-flicks, we have seen heroines escape bad dates by excusing themselves to the washroom. However, that is inconvenient in real life. So, what else could you do?

No, I am not referring to keeping your love life a secret from your parents - we all do that. This is about those sneaky classroom romances that are much better off unannounced or unhindered with.
Making your relationship work out is a tough job. The truth is, whether it's a relationship with a boy or a girl or any of the other genders, every relationship has problems. Sadly, nothing is as perfect as a relationship with your kolbalish.
