Following The Mob?

Today, after a long and tiring race of the amazing east, my friends and I went for dinner then sat down outside a macdonald restaurant and started chatting. One of topics we talked about revolved around "love". This love refers to boy-girl relationship love, not your innocent mother-son or whatever love. And it set me off thinking. Many a times, we see our friends going out with their girlfriends or boyfriends, and we actually get this peer pressure that maybe we should get a girlfriend or boyfriend for ourself too? And many a times, this is pretty wrong. Before we get into a BGR, we shouldn't just follow the mob. We should put into thinking many of the things that will be involved in this relationship. Like the sacrifice of time, the attention, the money, and on and on and on. And we still have to consider whether we can cope with what we are doing or not. Theres so many things to consider because this relationship is one heck of an important thing in our life. We shouldn't just jump into a relationship just because our friends are doing so. Not that I am against having a girlfriend or boyfriend nor am I being high above the rest or anything, I am just trying to say that there many things to weigh out before we do something so serious it could probably impact our life. And we shouldn't follow the mob for every other things as well. Like if many people smoke, it doesn't you should too. If many people drink, it doesn't mean you should too. If many people commit adultery, it doesn't mean you should too. If many people decide to go to hell, it doesn't mean you should too. We shouldn't always follow the mob all the times, althought sometimes, the majority could be right, but that doesn't mean the majority is right all the time. In a race, there is always only one winner and a mob of losers.
