dating bites

Here's a list of 10 things one author hates about heteronormative dating.

Yes, dating has its advantages, and for a whole bunch of people it often ends in a lifetime of marital bliss...but you have to agree that some of the conventions that accompany the process are just plain annoying.

Say, for example, the idea that you're always supposed to be "single and looking." Not just plain single.

Or the fact that if you're a girl, and you display any sort of extreme emotion -- whether it be anger or affection -- you're immediately called "psycho." Whereas a guy's actions in the same situation can be easily justified with a simple, "Well, that's just the way he is."

What do YOU hate most about dating?
