"Dating" isn't quite the same thing in the UK as it is in the US. People don't generally go on dates with lots of different people to see who they like best, although some probably do. It's generally used as a synonym for "going out", or "going steady" (that last one hasn't been said since about the 1970s though).
I certainly know when something almost certainly isn't going to last forever. Last time, there were two problems. The first one was that he wouldn't even say he was my boyfriend (massive red flag that I pretended would go away) and also he was violently atheist and couldn't deal with me being Christian. Not going to last. This time, the fact that he is 18 and I'm about to graduate and move away meant the odds were against us, and there were lots of little pinkish flags, if not one big red one, which meant I knew I liked him more than he liked me.
So I guess you can't know it will last forever. But you can know it won't, and so far I always have.

I'm sick as hell, been in bed all day, and I work 1130a-630p AND run my bar's jam night tomorrow. My realjob shift is right along the time frame where I have to do every single bulk item curbside pickup appointment.
I do not know how I will survive.

When you're twenty, you're looking for a relationship that might last three times longer than you have existed on Earth - predicting that reliably is pretty unlikely, really, and it's somewhat amazing that we manage even as well as we do.

Whoa, Patrick, can't you stay in?
I avoid working while sick because I once worked for weeks with a pretty hefty cold that then turned sinusitis and since then every minor cold has a good chance to turn into a pretty bad sinusitis. Just cause I couldn't say "no" to my then employer.
Soo, I´m fresh outta ca$h again, my nigs
but I found that I still have money on my student-card so I can go eat at the cafeteria. Hooray!
