    I wonder how many relationships there are where both think they’re “dating down”?

      Sum of all relations that have occurred in the last 10 years? Probably pretty high, based on the percentage of drivers who think they’re better than average.

      I expect those relationships are short, though.

      I would guess that in successful long term relationships, the opposite is probably true… Both partners think they’re dating up.

      In all of my relationships have I been “dating down”. Because frankly I am too good forthe type of person who would date someone like me.

    Wasn’t the point of Shrek that people have layers and their obvious traits aren’t the most obvious nor most important?

      Can anyone really understand Shrek?
