I came to realise one thing....
People at different ages react differently to relationships. When i mentioned relationships, i mean BGR. And not only they themselves react differently, their parents also react differently.
Look at it...
==================================================
Young Stage
When we were young, as in kindergarten school, the teacher would form us up into 2 lines. One of them is boys and the other line is formed up by girls. Normally, the boys and the girls would not want to hold hands with each other, or when they are forced to, will evoke a "Eeeee!!!" from the boys and "Yucks!!!" from the girl.
And when a boys got close to a girl in kindergarten or primary school, the other ppl will exclaim that they are sissy, or the like.
Parents who see that will often tease their child about "that girl" that held hands with their boy, or asking about how's that girl like.
Teenage Stage
During this stage, boys will start to have a crush on the fairer gender and vice versa. Normally, at this stage, they will start going out secretly, without telling the others, except for their best friends. No "Eeeeks!" or "Yucks!" when they hold hands.
For the parents, all the teasing will stop, and parents will normally sternly lecture their kids about studying, future or the consequences of having partners at this stage. Parents normally will object to a relationships of their kids, and parents of teenage girls will normally dislike the guy on their first sight.
Young Adult Stage
This stage will start another change. Your friends will dare you to talk to a girl, to hold her hand. No more mentioning of being sissy when guys get close to girls. Couples going on a relationship at this stage will not do it secretly, except for some who rather maintain a secret to their parents.
Parents on the other hand, will always try to pry into your relationships information. Not much of an objection to you going out on a date, and sometimes, your parents will start to tease you back being in a relationship. When you bring a date home, its interrogation time for your unfortunate date, and later, when your date is has went home, your parents will then tell you their accessment of your date. No more instant dislikes at this point.
This stage will also start when your parents will tell you about their relationship when they will young.
Adult Stage
You know you are at this stage when ppl around you are getting married.
Your friends will try to matchmake you to the opposite sex who are still single and avaliable at every chance. They will speak good of you, or the other party, which frequently turns out to be a failure. Friends will ask you the question: "when you getting a date?"
Your parents will enlist the help of their relatives to join forces to "pressure" you to go into a relationships. At this stage, when you bring a date back for the first time, parents will not interrogate the date, rather, the relatives will do the job.
Parents normally will not have comments about your date.
Older Adult Stage
Friends will more or less stop matchmaking of their friends to you, but they will still ask the ever hateful question "When you getting a date and marry?"
Relatives will just keep quiet, and parents will shake their heads and resign to fate.
====================================================
Does this happens to most of you out there?? Think about it.
