Are people inherently good or bad?

If we are created in the image of God, we can say that we are inherently good, right? But aren't humans born with a sinful nature? So are we inherently good or bad?

Birth Order affecting romantic relationships

Sun, 04 Jan 2009 19:10:10 GMT

Do you think birth order affects romantic relationships? According to "The Birth Order Book of Love," it definitely does. And this actually sounds believable to me-if you're the firstborn, you're probably going to be more bossy since you have younger siblings, etc. The compatiblity theory describes the best matches for people based on your birth order:

-An older sister with younger brothers make a good match with a younger brother with older sisters
-A younger sister of sisters make a good match with an older brother of sisters

An older brother and an older sister apparently wouldn't make a good couple because there would be rank conflict, and etc.

What do you guys think? Do you agree with this theory? Are you dating somebody that's a good match for you according to the birth orders?

Do you remember your first love? Did you end up together or was s/he a stepping stone to your true love? What did you learn from the experience? What are some of your regrets?

Pros and Cons of Being Single

What do you think are some pros and cons of being single? If you're not in a relationship, you can flirt with different people, and have more time for yourself. Of course, it's much easier to get lonely when you're not in a relationship. What do you guys think?

Do Opposites Really Attract?

Do you think opposites attract? Is it possible to have a successful relationship even if the two people have little in common? The advantages of being with someone who is very different from you is that you can learn about things you never would have thought of yourself, and his/her strengths might be your weaknesses, while your strengths can be his/her weaknesses-in other words, you two can complement each other, and fit together like two pieces of a puzzle.

Of course, the bad part is if you two don't have much in common, it might be hard to spend time together or agree on some things. It might lead to many arguments and misunderstandings.

So what do you guys think? How similar are you to your significant other? Are you guys opposites or have a lot in common? Can opposites have a successful relationship?

2nd time around

Fri, 15 Aug 2008 17:06:57 GMT

Has anyone gone through a break up, then gotten back together with that person? Did it work out the 2nd time around or did it get worse?

I guess the positives of getting back together with an ex would be:
-you both learned from your mistakes, so the same thing won't happen again
-you both know each other well

and the negatives of trying again would be:
-you might face the same problems/arguments again
-you're living in the past

Do you think it's called a "breakup because it's broken", or would you be willing to give your ex a 2nd chance? And if you have gotten back together, how was it the 2nd time around?
