What's your love life like?

[Globe]

I find that being an IB student affects your high school love life in a lot of ways. I either can't find somebody that I can have an intelligent conversation with who is also athletic (as I am too.) or I simply do not have time for a relationship. And when I do, they always seem to be a lot older than me (as I skipped grades)

And so the question is: How is your love life/Overall opinions on dating? Has IB affected it?

[Grumps]

I talked to this girl who is in my IB classes at a party, and I snagged her number. By mutual agreement I'm not going to call her for a couple weeks- we both have a lot of work right now. I'm a bit younger (I skipped a grade, too), and I don't think she minds.

But yeah, the other IB girls aren't really interested in dating.

My boyfriend dumped me because he didn't have time for me and he wasn't even in the ib lol! but my ib class i really social, so why would it be hard to find a boyfriend or a girlfriend? they just have to know homework.comes.first

My love life is doing my homework on the table every freakin' night.

Naw, I'm just kidding. I currently have a loving, helpful boyfriend. Although he's not in IB, he helps me stay sane and he's also my proofreader in most of my essays and whatnot. I love him more than IB, shoot.

Completely non-existent . Although, IB doesn't really present a problem for most of the other people in my class.

I need to admit that IB has made me quite busy that I do not even care about my love life. Well I do, but currently I am not liking any guy. And I do not want to look for one yet. I am afraid if he will ask me out and I cannot go just because of my homework! Then we will eventually break up. Unless he is doing IB too and we are just both busy but I haven't really found the right guy, since my class is quite small and I do not join any club outside so I do not have so many close friends outside school.

In my class, there is a couple (they have been together since they were in grade 9). Two girls have boyfriends outside school. The rest are single (18 people). I do not know why they do not have bf/gf too but some of them are probably just not thinking about having one and some of them probably likes somebody but they haven't got into a relationship

However, I am currently close with a number of guys (well, girls too of course) and we are really good friends. I think that it is still possible to have a bf/gf when you are in IB. Just then you also need to spend more time with your HW than with your lover.

Agreed

nonexistent. IB killed it

Lovelife? Great as ever, however IB takes so much time, +hobbies and other

stressfactors, such as applying to Universities really takes a lot of time.

If the guy is not too clingy, or understands that i do have a lot to do,

then it works out. Plus it is a nice stress relief to just go out and have

someone to make you giggle:)

IB drives me crazy, but my boyfriend happens to be the only thing keeping me sane, lol. It's ridiculous.

And I like breaking some stereotypes, as he's a football jock. Luckily though, not the jerk sort.

[azulverde:)]

completely unexisting for me too the guys in my class are not interesting at all and the guys in my school are freaking jerks so i have no other choice... to add to that they guys who like me are like 10 years older than me (so illegal)

lucky. I was about to break it last year, but the guy was a total jerk... and his friend this year was also like that even though we liked each other we werent gonna go out... and plus all he wanted from me was sex

My love lifes steady, Ive had a boyfriend of three months next week, he in college and works so we both have busy schedules so it works out pretty well. I see him one or twice a week and we stay together for hours. Honestly its at a great strss relief.

[ShineeLikeMe]

Wellll there arn't many choices here sooo...nonexistent. Biology is my lover.

[xXaliceinibwonderlandXx]

lol i approve I hav choices since in pansexual but girls are mean, cross dressers are too sensitive for me, and guys are bleh I think the only reason him and me work is because hes too tall for me to kick in the face

[ShineeLikeMe]

pahaha anime style!

[xXaliceinibwonderlandXx]

lol i can do that too it took forever to learn how. That and hes too silly to stay mad at hes like.. a puppy

[tootall2591]

All the girls in my IB class refuse to date anyone because the do not want to be distracted from school.

I concur.

But it's nice to know I'm not alone

[xXaliceinibwonderlandXx]

Meh he not a distraction if he annoys me ill tell him im busy and he'll stop aand he usually works during my school hours or homework hours so we stick to wenesdays or weekends. He know he's first in my heart but my grades or more important. Emory and Mercer are both schools i got to be in top shape for.

P.S Chemistry pwns biology more than Harry Potter pwns Edward Cullen

Biology pick up lines trumps chem pick up lines anyday
