There is this guy I know who was kinda like a robot. He was very stiff, didn't want kids at all, never wanted to live with anybody. He also hated kids..so he said. Steven would always talk about how families you see on tv was fake and nobody really had big family dinners together. It was clear he wasn't not really loved as a child. Then he met his girlfriend. Now he is warmer, gives hugs to friends, talks about having a child, sold his house and now lives with his girlfriend. It is like I totally different person. I think it helps she is getting her Ph.D. in psychology because he needs some help.

yes. If you do not find out who you are as a person and you run into a jerk/ no good man its going to be easy for him to manipulate you.
If you date a guy that has ambitions and just on his sh*t. It will rub off on you and he will inspire you to do better.
I judge people based on their so's because that usually is a reflection of yourself.

Yes. I had a Sri Lankan roomie that was very involved in the black culture and dated a few black guys. She was planning to go to grad school. She was a huge Obama supporter in '08. Then she met this white med student and she did a 180. No more grad school and she moved across the country to be with him. She voted for Romney in the last election and had anti-Obama rants frequently on facebook.
My other friend is awesomeeee and I love her, but I told her I could never date her cause she is mean to the guys she dates.

Yes, good and bad. I've seen people mature and gain a sense of purpose because of a relationship. I've also seen a person who was outgoing and confident become very insecure and introverted because of an abusive relationship.

So you base your judgement on who someone is dating?? Some people just run into the wrong people.
