It was a very long while ago, but apparently a girl got pregnant at 13 (and had the child as well)

Some more recent stuff: as Legdem just brought up, since we're all anime fans, I doubt many of us would've dated in high school (sad fact incoming: I not only never dated during high school for reasons I'll explain in a second, but have also been single for the past seven years)... though it wasn't due to anime, but because I was a total bookworm back in those days (heck, give me a good book to read, and it still hasn't changed)... every time I asked a girl out, I had a tendency to get shot down
I couldn't say the same for myself tbh, but I know where you're coming from. Some things are just not "in" these days. People always refer to certain things about people that "turn them on" like it's sexual. I think the problem is that a lot of girls, at least the ones I see around me, like the bad boys who don't give a damn about anyone but themselves, who act like they're on top of the world and they can get anything they want.

It's a sad fact, but I've grown to accept it (not saying I like it)... as I note all the time, kids these days are growing up far too fast; but hey, that's the changing times for ya...
Skip the whole idea of building a relationship and jump straight to bed. That's how people often thing these days.
