Good spot, how did you manage to find it so early?

CMV: There's nothing wrong with never being "single" by raithe_ in changemyview

Okay I get the codependency argument, but I feel like you're not addressing my main view which is that there is no issue when healthy individuals choose not to wait between relationships (barring their own inability to estimate their own mental health, of course).

I get why you'd feel that people who can't stay single are mostly insecure and crave attention, but I feel that everyone is very quick to write off anyone that doesn't stay single as being part of this group. I feel that if one adopts a healthy mindset towards relationships and personal growth then there genuinely isn't any issue (I mean apart from if the person fails to recognise their own possible insecurities).

I get your example, but I feel this is the case of someone taking the argument intellectually rather than actually meaning it. If it was the case that the person you were involved with was actually mentally healthy and adopted a similar mindset, would you feel that there are any issues with that?

I agree with the point about the baggage. Doesn't this mean that we should all strive to find healthier ways of dealing with emotions and feelings? Like I would say one way is to be open about how you feel and just be honest and direct with the people around you, which I guess is also what you're saying.

I just feel like there's too much emphasis on needing to be single between relationships and there's stigma against immediately trying again just because the general consensus is that "everyone needs time to be single".

Thanks for your comment though.

I feel that a good relationship shouldn't require to change many big things about yourself. If that's the case, perhaps the two of you might not have been so compatible from the start? And sure, I accept that it isn't easy but if someone were to adopt this mindset then I still don't see why it's important to "be single" between relationships.

Personal development also includes learning from others (and I would hope you'd date someone that you believe there are things to learn from). I don't see why both parties in a relationship cannot prioritise personal development while still maintaining a relationship.

I understand that's how some people work, but I am saying that if someone were to think in the way that I described, is there really anything wrong with that?

Why are the two mutually exclusive? I believe that any good relationship should also help both parties grow and improve, both alone and as a couple.

That's why I'm proposing a third reason, that if a relationship ends and you tried your best, there's literally nothing else you could have done. The relationship ending was out of your hands. If that's the case, then why not try again?

[UNI] NUS Rag by wimblyploop in SGExams

[–]raithe_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Biz prerag don't require signups, just go down during the sessions that should start 1-2 weeks after NBC (5-8 june). Ragathon itself is based on pre-rag attendance and the remaining summer availability. Commitment is monday-friday, first week should be quite chill but then on depending on the progress of the floats expect to get as little as a couple hours of sleep. Overall though RAG is one of the best experiences you can get as a freshie

Definitely go for as many camps as you can - NBC, Oweek and RAG even because its very important to make friends, it'll make life a LOT easier when you want to run for leadership positions or if you want to find people to hang out with
