PDA and other problems with people who are in relationships...

Rae's List (which will most likely grow very rapidly) of all the things she; dislikes, detests, hates, abhors, feels insulted by, revolted by, repulsed by, and in general is extremely unhappy with-- in regards to people in relationships and the relationships themselves. (If you are in a relationship currently, I would advise you not to read this until after the love of your life has broken up with you and shattered you dreams. It might be a rather unpleasant wake-up call if you do.)
  1. Public Displays of Affection
  2. People in relationships have the tendency to either abandon or entirely forget their friends
  3. Relationships are stressful for the friends of the people involved
  4. The people involved always seem surprised when the relationship ends (even when everyone on the outside has been saying "I told you so" all along and the people involved have chosen again and again to ignore the warning)
  5. Listening to people talk about their boyfriend/girlfriend when you don't have one is a really tedious, really simple, still entirely painful version of some new age torture
  6. It really miffs me when people think that just because they're happily in a relationship, they don't have to help their friends out
  7. Unrequited love is all too common
  8. Romeo and Juliet Syndrome
  9. et cetera to be added to later when I've thought up something else to complain about
