he said that he needed me to tell him that relationship sucks so that he can continue living a carefree life.
so I am going to say this to you: being in a relationship sometimes can help you to live a more carefree life, you know that? It always depends. Hm...If there is someone new entering your life, don't fight it, dude. And anyway, you're a big wise old man, you can figure out this already, that so called 'relationship' or 'love' is the same as other nonliving things/concepts. It'll have its pro's and con's so we cant merely say it plainly sucks. What determines the suckiness of a thing (and this is inclusive of 'relationships') is you and the people around you. People, man. People.
