I've decided to conduct an experiment. In order to proceed, I'm going to need a volunteer.
In order to distinguish and understand the benefits and downfalls of a relationship, I think I should do two things.
1. Speak with people who have been in various types of relationships and can clearly analyze them to form a stronger hypothesis. 2. Find a willing volunteer to date me so that I can have inside knowledge on one of the relationships I know nothing about first hand.
Ultimately I want to be able to accurately categorize the benefits and disadvantages to relationships.
