Yeah, most people that I show Fruits Basket to love it. And the manga is even better than the anime. Wish that they would make more of the anime, since nothing really is resolved by the end.

Well it is even harder to pin point the type of person that works once you leave the physical aspects. And I tend not to pay a lot of attention to what really attracts me to someone. It just sort of happens. So I don't focus on it.

Most guys usually will favor Shounen over Shoujo. Fruits Basket is one of my favorites, but I also enjoyed Shinobi Life. My Little Monster has been very entertaining, Hiiro no Kakera is good if not a little slow at times. Utusumi Lily is really funny.

I haven't a clue what reasons I find someone attractive. When their personality connects with mine seems to be the best answer I can give.

That's where being a hopeless romantic comes in. Read lots of shoujo and see all of the relationships falling apart and coming back together through trials.

Well you do what you can and learn from what happens. It is the best that you can do.

The problem with being likeable ends up putting you into the friendzone rather than a romantic one.

Well you manage things how it works for you. Sometimes a little boldness is a good thing, because it can only lead to regret if you end up doing nothing.

So many things would be solved with being direct, but it's not that easy, sadly.

Well as I said, outside of romantic relationships, I already know plenty of people with a significant age difference. I've no problem with it. I can get along with anyone so long as they aren't trying to be a jerk. As for romantic ones, it is a hard thing to know. There's been a couple that I've been interested in and I'm like they're more than ten years younger than me. I don't mind, but I'll admit it'd be a little weird and no clue how they'd feel about the age difference let alone about myself. Only ran into one person that was older than me of the romantic interest and I think it was only a few years apart. So it wasn't that big of an issue. I just don't think they see me like that, plus they are thousands of miles away.

Yeah that's understandable. Well if she gave up too easily it wasn't meant to be then. If she wanted it, she would have fought harder for it. Though I guess some will just give up when something stands in their way.

Ah, just on the edge of things. Yeah, that can be very difficult for parents to accept. But they are parents, they're going to have trouble accepting others with their children at times. It just something you have to build up in trust.

I guess that ends up depending on where those 3 years lied. But at you get older 3 years is pretty much nothing. It is only when you're still a child that age closeness is usually better. Usually because of maturity for one thing. But once you're an adult a few years is meaningless.

Yeah, age is a complicated matter for people. But at long as it is not illegal there really isn't much of a problem with it. Society will always view things that it doesn't understand as being strange or weird.

That's quite the difference for being so young still. But it is good.

Ten years is your limit huh? I know too many people significantly younger and older than me for age to really be a factor. I have to work with people like that anyway, so it doesn't really become an issue. They are just another person to interact with for me.

Yeah, you get used to things. And improve as you get older. However, talking about age in your twenties a little depressing.

Well you get into what habits keep you healthy. As your body ages you adapt to the changes. I'm hardly one to speak, I'm not that old. But I am older than I wish I was, but not a lot I can do about the passage of time.

That's good. It gets harder the older you are, it makes you more likely to get sick. It's a little annoying.
