      Religion plays a large part in it as well. My parents have always hated each other but got married cause my mom got pregnant, now they won’t divorce because it’s against god or whatever

      Sadly, yeah. Doesn't matter the sexuality I think. Everyone just wants to feel someone cares about them.

          Oh, I don't think it's necessarily a "basis" for the relationship. They just rush into these things because they don't want to "die alone." A lot of them break up and look for the next one. So it's not like it's the end-all-be-all, but with straight folks they find these relationships earlier (in high school) while gay folks start later in life (their 30's or later).

          As shitty as it sounds to put it this way, it's a sort of "biological clock" (ugh) for that feeling.
