What did your mother teach you about love, dating, and relationships?

Were those lessons taught by positive example (how to do it right) or by negative example (what NOT to do?)

Looking forward to an enlightening discussion!

My mother didnt teach me much since she found her husband at 18 and she didnt date much before him.

I do remmeber the story she told me and my younger sister (I was 24, she was 21) about how we should go to a nicer place to me our bothers wife who she thought was freat (brother was 29 then). We had been going to bars and both of us werent dating anyone.

So I asked her how did they met and she gives me a story. Then I told her how it actually happened with them meeting...

they met at a dive bar where she was in illegally (just turned 20) and she previous was dating one of the large group of guys (he wasnt there) and so she started talking with the guys. My brother hadnt met her before (away at college) and they introduced her as "Joe"'s old girl friend and he asked is this the infamous "Karen" and she punched him. Later she came back to apologize and they hit it off.

My mom always said date good girls not hussies, treat your girl nicely, and when you find "the one" you'll know. Just make sure she can cook.

Treated hussies nicely, good girls poorly, thought I found the one and married her. I had to learn to cook darn fast! Divorced.

Shoulda listened to mom dammit!

I learned what it's like to be unconditionally loved. Does that count as something?
