Gives students a basis for thinking clearly about real love and shows that mere conviction of love is not enough to insure lasting happiness. A drama. Courtesy: Prelinger Archives
Dayum, are you ever correct! I remember back in 1994 when I was 26 raising some eyebrows at my fourth attempt at a committed relationship.. A male friend who had known m since I was 18 said “On the surface it may seem like opposites attracting and two people on the rebound but underneath they have a lot in common. This’ll work.” I wish I hadn’t lost touch with him so I could tell him he was right.
I cant imagine knowing somebody well enough to make a big commitment in two freaking months, but couples did it back then. I think my parents had only been dating a few months when they got engaged. They stayed married too and after dad died Mom was not interested in ever dating anyone else.
yootuba, My dad was handsome ,charming, charismatic and hung like a mule . Why on earth my mom felt I needed to know that last 1 ? I have no idea .they didn't know eachother very long when they ran off to get married having to lie about mom's age because she wasn't legal. They stayed married till he died 15 years later . He was fun to be around . Gamma was pissed when he ran off with my mom & tried to have dad arrested . He had a thing for underage girls , 3 Statutory warrants over 3 different, willing underage girls at the time of his death . Had been described as the kind of man who could " Fall into a pile of Sh*t and come out smelling like a rose " When i was 18 I laughed when I saw their marriage license for the 1st time because I knew that neither of them were as old as it said they were .I'm not even convinced that dad was legally divorced from his 1st wife when he married my mom I know he left that woman while she was pregnant with his 3rd child & he was only 15 when he married her Heck he was only 19 when he married my 16 year old mom. I'm the youngest of his 6 kids, he had by age 25 .
when these two agreed they weren’t ready for the attachment and still managed to plan for their next date, i guess it was a sign of maturity. A good step for mature love
John Rex Calunsag I don’t think it’s mature to be submissive and only being with someone with the exact same background; Why don’t you marry your siblings? wanting unconditional love is not immature Especially when you’ve had it on a mutual level. As a Venus in Scorpio in the tenth house I think I could never forget AIK or RLS
"You young punks go to the movies a couple of times, do a little necking, and you think you're in love". Seems teens haven't changed much since the 50s 💀
Electric Sutando My parents weren't very helpful, I went to a concert with 80,000 fans at 10 years old, bye the way my first music was Partridge Family, they let a babysitter through a party at our house. We were 1 big Irish Family 6 kids. I loved going to Concerts Stones, Zeppelin, Allman Brothers, Lynyrd Skynyrd before plane crash, I nicknamed Mick Jagger ( A ROOSTER ON ACID ) cause of his energy on stage. I also was a big Nascar fan, crazy those drivers go 2 miles in 48 seconds. I am proud knew my limits with Alcohol. Always loved that Quote ( FRIENDS ARE THE SIBLINGS GOD FORGOT TO GIVE US ) ERIN GO BRAGH means IRELAND FOREVER
This is actually... pretty good. I was expecting some stupid stereotypes or something but it does help you understand infatuation from actual caring for each other.
I just really love how she realized she doesn't feel mature love for her boyfriend, so she told him and they came to the conclusion that they nonetheless have a lot of fun together and they can keep being a couple. So it's not always "I don't really love you, I quit", sometimes it's "I love you in a different way and that's okay" this video taught me a lot :)
There are films like this. They’re dumb and inaccurate to our actual lives and when school tries to push them down our throat we laugh and joke about them. These were inaccurate to Actual 50s teens lives too.
AJBeetle1 maybe camera film and photos were expensive and the mother didn’t want her daughter’s carelessness to be a total waste. Or they’re just weirdos xD
Man what gets me at the ending was that both took the admission of not being ready for a "mature" kind of love so well. No hurt feelings or angry fighting, just the acceptance of the fact and willingness to spend more time together.
If only what i would say was the love of my life, when we were both young had this apporach, maybe we could have grown together and had real love as we matured, I do believe we could have. But it was supposedly unfair that i wasn't ready for real love and 100% verbal commitment, i was scared to verbally make rhat commitment, .but i was basically committed in my actions, i was loyal, obsessed, adored her, homest, everything, just was afraid to commit at such a young age, is it my fault or was it unfair of her to give me an ultimatum like that? Supposedly i had "committed issues", i think its deeper than that. Any one relate? And now, she has been through hell with relationships for the last 10/15 years, ended up taking drugs all the time, she still beautifull in all ways, but she's trapped in a lifestyle, i want to try and help her and she also wants that, but she might fuck my life up now, everythimg i have worked for 😂 Its risky as fu#k, what does anyone think? Please help 😂
back then that’s how it was. you could date multiple people at a time, and it was okay because it was only getting to know the people without commitment. once they went steady, that’s when there was commitment and you realize you really like the person. plus, teens went on dates like every weekend.
only 2 minutes in and I love how both mother and daughter feel ok with saying, "I'll have to think about that" before giving an answer. A lot of people would do well to use that phrase more often. Fast answers aren't necessarily good answers.
Parents were like moral dictionaries back then, damn I miss that. Look at the girl’s mom who gave her daughter the perfect answer on the complex aspect of love and the different types of love.
Honestly, this is a lovely short film. The mom in this gave wonderful advice. I really like how she pointed out that temporary relationships and crushes are important for self discovery and experience. That's really valuable information, especially for someone that's young and has just started dating or broken up with someone.
A thing they didn't really mention is that mature love requires compromise and communication. You don't have to like all the same things. You can be complete opposites but find harmony with each other. Compromise isn't about sacrificing your own ideals, it's about finding a middle ground and respecting each other's differences without belittling. Not every relationship will work out no matter how hard you try so it's important to take your time getting to know each other before committing. Also, a form of love is learning to let go and wish for the other person's happiness without being jealous or vindictive.
Time helps because most put on good behavior at 1st. Observe how they handle isappointment, failure, money, how they treat others, what their parents are like. Know at least a year before marriage
"Are we really interested in the same things? Do we feel at ease with each other? Are we proud of each other? Do we agree on the basic things like; religion, marriage, children, money?" Well done, mama.
This is so cute. The wholesomeness is refreshing and makes you feel good inside and optimistic. The relationships in these videos are phenomenal, especially between the parent and child. I wish had that with my parents or someone who will listen and give me sound advice. I didn't even get these kinds of lessons in school. I've learned so much more from TV, books, and music than ever from people I know or have met. Fortunately, I turned out to be a decent, right-minded person.
Man, Bob had good hair. And good advice. But really good hair. He is 35 years old and sleeping in a twin bed next to his 16 year old brother. So, nothing weird there.
Lol. Same. The universe brings to us what we need. I am hooked to the charisma videos that were being recommended to me. It's helped me improve how I relate to people and eye contact... (3 seconds with each person in the group)
I am eighty two and the advice is good. Was surprised to see being proud of the person you love. It is true, I never thought of that! Btw. Never heard anyone say swell. People spoke then like they do now
I like how despite their realisation that they're not in love/don't share real love, they still go out again. Maybe it'll take longer, not for them to compromise on anything, but to grow into each other. Love takes effort too
Morwenna16 My parents weren't very helpful, they let me go to a Led Zeppelin concert with 80,000 fans at 10 years old, my first music was Partridge Family, My parents were crazy having 8 kids, we were cute with Irish Freckels on our face. Because we were Irish our Neighbors paid us with Beer to cut there lawns. Im not lying mom side us kids had 16 first cousins. ERIN GO BRAGH means IRELAND FOREVER
Questions: Are we really interested in the same thing? Do we feel at ease together? Are we proud of eachother? Are we agreed on basic things? Like Religion, Money and children?
I thought they were good questions to ask yourself: - are we really interested in the same things - do we feel at ease together - are we proud of each other - do we agree on the basic things ie religion, children, marriage, money
I'm actually very impressed by how open these parents seemed to be with their children - I don't feel like now-a-days parents are nearly this candid with their kids, which surprises me.
When parents actually cared about their kids and spent time with them instead of being self-involved and trying to look and act like teenagers themselves.
Everybody saying it's weird they had strangers photos on their family album, but if you think about it, they didn't have social media back then, but it's just the same thing lol
It actually wasn't too far off in describing characteristics of love that current relationship research has shown to correlate well with successful and satisfying relationships. However, it was a little off in calling love to be mature versus developing. They're simply different types of love that exist throughout your life, but may be more or less dominant depending on your stage of life.
+Veronica Walton See? It's the message of the story that matters and people complain about too much CGI and that the acting was cheesy and another deserved the Oscar and don't focus on the bigger picture. A lot of people are so spoiled and have so much short attention span, all they want is explosions and don't care about the human connection. This film is a work of art.
Thanks, this really helped me understand love. Now I've just broken up with my girlfriend and I'm off to buy a teddy bear which I intend to have a more mature love with.
+Joe Yes, me too, now i know what i already suspected...love is a choice of responsibility, admiring each other and helping each other out. To say someone is sexy or you like her kisses is not enough, we have to know who we are in the overall mature personality, dreams, interests, and responsibility. Love is not forced it's relaxed. There is no sexual tension, cause love is peace with one another. Love is not one sided or mystery. Love is to be ourselves. Don't marry someone unless you agree on the fundamental things.
This instructional video taught me more than life ever has. I felt like I was learning something from my mother during the snapshots scene and I got a little emotional. It was so informative and gracious. This generation lacks this type of knowledge. They thrive on immature love. I’m showing my future kids these instructional videos.
How are the questions this girl's mom tells her to ask herself still so relevant 70 years later? Man I wish someone would have told me to ask myself this when I was in high school!
@@BlackCover95 Well weren't they racist,sexist and homophobic? Ofcourse they knew things and they didn't deny them,instead looking them head on and providing solutions
I was expecting another crockpot old-timey video about virginity, but this actually had some really good points. Don't marry someone unless you agree on the fundamental things like religion, children and money.
Children and money are definitely things that should be agreed upon. If one wants children and the other doesn’t attitudes concerning that rarely change. Even if the latter agrees to having children eventually they usually make for a terrible, hesitant parent anyway. Most people get divorced over differences in financial decisions. Spenders rarely become savers and vice versa. Religion, on the other hand, is highly subjective... Some people change their religion 20 years down the road, don’t have one anymore, or didn’t have one and then pick one up. Some people require church attendance with their spouse while others are ok practicing their religion on their own. It’s all about finding someone that’s compatible with you. Some differing religious or non-religious people work better together than others. I would know, I’ve been in a relationship with my husband for four years and been married to him for two. We agree on children and money but I’m a Christian and he’s non-religious. The fact that we don’t agree on religion has no negative impact on our marriage. Rather, we view religion as a VERY personal choice and respect each other’s opinions. Just as it will be our son’s personal choice when he’s old enough to understand things like that (he’s currently 14 months old). So, I guess you could say that although we don’t agree *on* religion we agree *concerning* religion... And that’s what makes us compatible.
@CBS 70sfan no, just that you threw reptiles in there. Seriously, what was it about the reptiles that was a red flag? I am sorry you lost those years; I was in a relationship way too long myself and should have ended it much sooner.
We saw some of these type of movies in the early 80s... in jr high, I am sure. Course, most of my teachers were teaching there when my mom was there 22 years b4 me....🤣🤣🤣
Did people really start their sentences with "Say...." and use the word "swell" so much back then? Or is that just how they spoke in movies? Sorry random question but I always wondered about that.
Just cause it’s old doesn’t mean it’s wrong. Love hasn’t changed since the 50’s, so the advice is still rock solid. Sad that so many people have to learn this on their own and their parents never tell them. What happened to parents being moral guidance?
Wow... I think I'm born on the wrong age... These days sure do have lots of opinions.. with no information about what, when, how, why, who. Just do this and do that with no explanation. This is amazing! Really wish I was born in these times... Very substantial. Unlike in this day and age, too many punks, babies, and some people who expect that love and care all their lives they never grow up types. Nobody says anything substantial, objective, wise, nor knowledgeable.
That was so nice for her mother to speak with her about this very important topic...and most of all that she felt comfortable enough to go to her mother.. Nice video..
she basically speaks of the types of loves that ancient greeks spoke of 😌 1. “Eros” or Erotic Love 2. “Philia” or Affectionate Love or the love we have for friends 3. “Storge” or Familiar Love 4. “Ludus” or Playful Love 5. “Mania” or Obsessive Love 6. “Pragma” or Enduring Love 7. “Philautia” or Self Love 8. “Agape” or Selfless Love
It's 2023 ...and I can't tell the feelings of watching this 🎥 video... It's feel so pure and simple and attractive at the Same time... Oh my gawddd...im 23 year old girl... But still I feel so young and old at the same time... 1950 is my grandmother days... When she was in her 20s.... Ohhhh gawwddd.... 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 I wish these type of Era come back soon... 💜💜💜
Because you needed to experience first hand. I even received some advice regarding friendship and spiritual teachers and love, and I still had the urge to crash and burn. Then you remember and store the memory for lifetimes.
It's 1am and here I am watching this video once again. I first came across it after being heartbroken when I was 16. I was so sure I was in love with her. Now, I watch this when I find myself thinking seriously about a new girl, or if I'm feeling down about someone from days gone by. How strongly I can now relate to the stages of puppy and physical love. But mature love? Someone I'm proud of? At ease with? Cooperative with? Agree on the topics of religion, money, children? Those boxes are a whole lot harder to get ticked off. After having watched this almost too many times to count now, I always realise the same thing. I've never really been in love. 2023 update: Funny how I keep on coming back to this video, almost 10 years after I first found it. So much life has been lived, I've had 3 big heartbreaks that have left their scars and important lessons learnt. Ive found, let go of, and lost love. C'est la vie.
"Is he at ease with you?" "No" "does he agree about the important things with you?" "No" "is he proud of you?" "No.... fuck.. excuse me while I reevaluate my life 🤣😭"
TheMightyWill honestly, I found this reply just scrolling through and your little reply really helped me right now and that is exactly what I needed thank you so much ^-^
This is good Question to ask! To me when you know its love, you can't see yourself without that person, and just the thought of them makes your heart skip a beat.When you're in love it's shows .
true love is when you can be 100% yourself with your significant other and he or she sees you for who you really are and still loves you back . And vice versa. Without any mask, any effort, any game, any ulterior motive. This is when you find that someone who is at the same time the person you desire physically, but also the person you care about like a family member, a friend, a pet and who reciprocates the feeling. The purest form of love to me is the one between kids and parents and pets for their owners . As a father and as a pet owner (and a veterinarian and ethologist) i have to say that there is no truer love than the one i get from my kids and my pets. My partner gives me the same love which is even more remarkable because it is not a given like the one i expect to receive from my dogs and cats or kids, but it is a choice on his behalf, which makes it even more beautiful. True love is unconditional , it is not based on the other person's look, situation, wealth, health, or what he or she can provide, it is far more primal and instinctive, almost as if it was an involuntary response, encoded in our DNA. That for me , is true love. And i think i am the luckiest person in the world because i receive it from, and feel it for, my partner, our kids, my parents, my twin brother and my pets. ruclips.net/video/euUeCuwnZeU/видео.html
@@wcotton well, i was not a teenager when i met him and i am 45 years old now . Besides , i believe that if you are raised right, by parents who teach you how to think (which is the most important of all parental duties) , then by the time you are a teen , you are perfectly functional . I was living by myself at the age of 16 thousands of miles from any family member, in a foreign country, and supporting myself financially, and my parents encouraged it. It forges character and develops the personality, because you are face to face with yourself and the reality of life. I don't believe for a second that teens who are raised right do not know themselves and who they really are. My teen daughters and son are perfectly functional and i could die tomorrow and they would still make it without a single problem and no psychological damage. It all depends on education really. And i don't mean school, i mean what goes on at home and how parents interact with their kids. Perhaps being Scandinavian, parents raise their kids differently in Iceland, from wherever you might be from . But here everybody is operational and functional and usually financially independent by the age of 16 or 17. I am pretty much the same person now as i was when I was 14 or 15. I'm actually more relaxed now, because i do not have to worry about the future anymore and my career is set and on tracks, i'm happily married with great kids and financially very stable. f anything, i believe i was smarter and more intuitive as a teenager than i am now.
michigan1777 It was assumed that the entire viewing audience spoke standard middle American, and presumably black people didn’t exist. However, a few of these films have people speaking with clearly southern accents.
I think the point is that it could be a red flag because it shows that she has adventurous tastes and he doesn't and may even be a bit prejudiced, which could be a source of major strain in any relationship if applied to things other than food.
i like the way they talk, not just the properness, but they have an accent that's very "old-timey", sort of like how british accents sound, but its very middle century american. anyone get what im talking about? haha (:
I love these videos, partly for their content which is mostly pretty cool, but also for the stilted acting and phrasing. Gives me the giggles. ^_^ We should all stop and realize that these short videos ran before feature films and were created because there were a lot of teenagers who didn't feel they could ask their parents questions like this and a lot of parents who weren't comfortable answering if the teens did ask. The 50s were a far from idyllic time in some ways, these videos were aspirational, they show idealized relationships between parents and young adults, and ideal reactions between people, unless they are showcasing what not to do, or how not to be. I like the videos because they show a lot of calm, non-judgemental interactions and reactions on the part of parents. Too many parents, in all eras, tend to react harshly even to sincere questions, or tend to judge harshly when asked for help or guidance.
Not so much stilted acting but that that was how oeople actually spoke & acted back then. I remember. Language & styles change with the decades. Young people nowdays talk like Valley girls in the movies. Watch moviesfrom the 1930s vs movies from 2020s & notice how inflections are different
Francisco David Martinez I thought the same! Especially in profile at the dinner scene. Couldn’t believe I had to scroll down so far before someone else voiced it lol
Her mother is really wise and a good teacher. I liked how closely Nora listened to her mother as she was teaching her. She understood her mother had knowledge and experience that Nora didn't have yet, and she wanted to learn from her mom because she respected her. Rate today.
I’ve been in love with my husband since we were sixteen years old and that was 41 years ago. We have been married 36 of those years with four children and two grandchildren. I knew I was really in love when I couldn’t imagine anyone I would rather grow old with. All I know is when you really love someone, their happiness and well being is more important to you than your own and they feel the same way. I would lay my life down for my husband and family and he would too
Bingo! That's the answer to "how do you know it's real love?" When you can't imagine growing old with anyone else, when their happiness and well being is more important than your own and they feel the same way about you, when you protect each other by not taking advantage of each other's weaknesses, when you forgive each other's shortcomings, when you realize that you're not just marrying your spouse, but their family too ... yes, these are the signs of mature love.
This was really fantastic- I didn’t know what to expect because of all the negative 1950s dating stereotypes, but wow… this is just what I needed. Really grounding and wise. Simpler times are where my heart yearns to be.
The guys I know disrespect me. They never want to get to know me as a person. When I'm trying to talk about something I like, they don't seem interested. They really just want to get in my pants. They say they like me, but I never hear from them They make promises and break them. I don't feel like I can be myself around them. I just feel used. They only call me when they're horny. It just sucks. Relationships look hard anyways, and I'm kinda content of being alone.
I'm sorry to hear about your mistreatment. Don't give up hope in finding a virtuous man as mature as you. Think about what you would like out of life, the kind of man that can help you, how you might help him, and likely places where you might meet him.

I like that they portrayed the girl as the thoughtful and reflective one, not the clingy/hasty one.

This is actually... pretty good. I was expecting some stupid stereotypes or something but it does help you understand infatuation from actual caring for each other.

They had a lot of emotional sophistication we don't value or nurture as much now
Beekah in the end though, doesn’t all love start from infatuation, and either ends there or develops into love
Yeah how do my parents turn out to be such idiotic fucktards along with the rest of the boomers
I just really love how she realized she doesn't feel mature love for her boyfriend, so she told him and they came to the conclusion that they nonetheless have a lot of fun together and they can keep being a couple. So it's not always "I don't really love you, I quit", sometimes it's "I love you in a different way and that's okay" this video taught me a lot :)

If women express their opinion, they are seen as forceful and domineering. A lot of men these days have no self esteem and can’t handle that.

Matthew Luttrell your really fuckin right especially before you get married. it could save a lot of heart ache.
seriously!
Na. Watching a video about "what's ___" is like being programmed to do something. I rather things happen naturally and develope and people
We need to teach lots of stuff more explicitly... Relationship skills, finance, cooking, housekeeping, child-rearing...
There are films like this. They’re dumb and inaccurate to our actual lives and when school tries to push them down our throat we laugh and joke about them. These were inaccurate to Actual 50s teens lives too.
No explanation for why they took a photo of strangers kissing in their car and put it into a photo album...
AJBeetle1 maybe camera film and photos were expensive and the mother didn’t want her daughter’s carelessness to be a total waste. Or they’re just weirdos xD
People take photos of people without them knowing it, then post it online now a days. So maybe this isn't as weird as it looks for the time.
I think they were her friends. Mug shot.
Plot device 😉
The parents are pervy. Plot twist.
Imagine someone caring so much about giving you a proper answer that they're willing to think about it for a whole day
Man what gets me at the ending was that both took the admission of not being ready for a "mature" kind of love so well. No hurt feelings or angry fighting, just the acceptance of the fact and willingness to spend more time together.
And you were really in love with Mary, and Betty, and Dallas... I hope he didn't get any tattoos.
Aka have fun and figure out the rest lmao
If only what i would say was the love of my life, when we were both young had this apporach, maybe we could have grown together and had real love as we matured,
I do believe we could have.
But it was supposedly unfair that i wasn't ready for real love and 100% verbal commitment, i was scared to verbally make rhat commitment, .but i was basically committed in my actions, i was
loyal, obsessed, adored her, homest, everything, just was afraid to commit at such a young age, is it my fault or was it unfair of her to give me an ultimatum like that?
Supposedly i had "committed issues", i think its deeper than that.
Any one relate?
And now, she has been through hell with relationships for the last 10/15 years, ended up taking drugs all the time, she still beautifull in all ways, but she's trapped in a lifestyle, i want to try and help her and she also wants that, but she might fuck my life up now, everythimg i have worked for 😂
Its risky as fu#k, what does anyone think? Please help 😂
It can turn into love as the times goes by.
"you the only girl i've dated, in two months"
HAHAHAHAHHAHAHA I WAS LAUGHING SO MUCH IN THIS PART!!
Olive B. that's really fucked up on the girls part
back then that’s how it was. you could date multiple people at a time, and it was okay because it was only getting to know the people without commitment. once they went steady, that’s when there was commitment and you realize you really like the person. plus, teens went on dates like every weekend.
Lol
@@l3xsterz298 That sounds better than what we have today. People don't take the time to know each other.
As long as they didnt sleep with each other it's all kushti
I teach healthy relationship classes to teens and I am going to show these videos! I am curious to see what todays teens think about these.
DrHPotter ... what did they think of them?
DrHPotter what a cool class
That’s a wonderful idea! What did they think of them?
You should make RUclips videos and show us how and what teens think of these videos today please!
Good common sense, kindness, cleanliness, organization, respect are always a good way to live.
only 2 minutes in and I love how both mother and daughter feel ok with saying, "I'll have to think about that" before giving an answer. A lot of people would do well to use that phrase more often. Fast answers aren't necessarily good answers.
Parents were like moral dictionaries back then, damn I miss that. Look at the girl’s mom who gave her daughter the perfect answer on the complex aspect of love and the different types of love.
I like how the mother didn't answer straight away and said that she needed to think about it. Good advice for parents.
Well it was acting, TV doesn’t reflect reality, even back then
This was not how people where
This is how they are acting
She's lucky to have a mature mother.
Warren Cotton indeed.
Honestly, this is a lovely short film. The mom in this gave wonderful advice. I really like how she pointed out that temporary relationships and crushes are important for self discovery and experience. That's really valuable information, especially for someone that's young and has just started dating or broken up with someone.
A thing they didn't really mention is that mature love requires compromise and communication. You don't have to like all the same things. You can be complete opposites but find harmony with each other. Compromise isn't about sacrificing your own ideals, it's about finding a middle ground and respecting each other's differences without belittling. Not every relationship will work out no matter how hard you try so it's important to take your time getting to know each other before committing. Also, a form of love is learning to let go and wish for the other person's happiness without being jealous or vindictive.
This is what real love means🩷
was looking for this...
This! ❤❤❤
Time helps because most put on good behavior at 1st. Observe how they handle isappointment, failure, money, how they treat others, what their parents are like. Know at least a year before marriage
Older sibling's said sorry to their younger siblings?

"Are we really interested in the same things? Do we feel at ease with each other? Are we proud of each other? Do we agree on the basic things like; religion, marriage, children, money?" Well done, mama.
This is so cute. The wholesomeness is refreshing and makes you feel good inside and optimistic. The relationships in these videos are phenomenal, especially between the parent and child. I wish had that with my parents or someone who will listen and give me sound advice. I didn't even get these kinds of lessons in school. I've learned so much more from TV, books, and music than ever from people I know or have met. Fortunately, I turned out to be a decent, right-minded person.
Pass it on! ❤
Yes! That’s so true! And isn’t it so nice to read a great book and feel like somebody so wise, thoughtful and mature is talking to you?
Bob and Jean are SO cute together. They are about 86 years old now and still talking about the same stuff.
+poetcomic1 So cute, I saw them at Bob Evans the other day.

Yeah why is that? Why did all the women back then speak so strangely.
That's just course if that Hollywood accent that was really popular then:)
Man, Bob had good hair. And good advice. But really good hair. He is 35 years old and sleeping in a twin bed next to his 16 year old brother. So, nothing weird there.

This video greatly affected my life as a new adult 18 years old. Thank you so much
I like how the mother didn't answer straight away and said that she needed to think about it. Good advice for parents.
It's really creepy to me that she took photos of random people, then her mother put those photos in the family album.
PontiCat72 Her mom was like, “Oh how nice dear. You took a picture of your friends getting busy in a car. Dear memories for our family album.”

Purity culture on RUclips 😑
Maybe you need it. Maybe we all do.
It was enlightening
Same
Lol. Same. The universe brings to us what we need. I am hooked to the charisma videos that were being recommended to me. It's helped me improve how I relate to people and eye contact... (3 seconds with each person in the group)
I am eighty two and the advice is good. Was surprised to see being proud of the person you love. It is true, I never thought of that! Btw. Never heard anyone say swell. People spoke then like they do now
I like how despite their realisation that they're not in love/don't share real love, they still go out again. Maybe it'll take longer, not for them to compromise on anything, but to grow into each other. Love takes effort too
I loved “are you proud of each other”
These are actually good advices. I wish my mother would talk to me this way!
hhhhh same! my ma would never talk 2 me like this..... hahaah :D
Morwenna16 My parents weren't very helpful, they let me go to a Led Zeppelin concert with 80,000 fans at 10 years old, my first music was Partridge Family, My parents were crazy having 8 kids, we were cute with Irish Freckels on our face. Because we were Irish our Neighbors paid us with Beer to cut there lawns. Im not lying mom side us kids had 16 first cousins. ERIN GO BRAGH means IRELAND FOREVER
Questions:
Are we really interested in the same thing?
Do we feel at ease together?
Are we proud of eachother?
Are we agreed on basic things? Like Religion, Money and children?
"How Do You Know It's Love? ", you say?
That's the point, you don't.
It is a feeling we can't explain either.
We show it by our actions.
I thought they were good questions to ask yourself:
- are we really interested in the same things
- do we feel at ease together
- are we proud of each other
- do we agree on the basic things ie religion, children, marriage, money
Do we both enjoy.....well, you know....
@@PutDownTheBunny eating food? 😆 yes bc some ppl only have protein shakes and water so this is important.
I'm actually very impressed by how open these parents seemed to be with their children - I don't feel like now-a-days parents are nearly this candid with their kids, which surprises me.
The Pregnant Doula . Joei Gowing this wasnt real
Gruffin Waldrom But it might have been!
It's fake.
When parents actually cared about their kids and spent time with them instead of being self-involved and trying to look and act like teenagers themselves.
I agree. I don't even talk to my parents at all anymore, and I'm 13.
That comment about possessive love is really powerful and could easily be missed
Deb Carsey Even bad parents have nothing but possessive love, sadly...
you are beautiful and unique i admire you for that.

Hello
Everybody saying it's weird they had strangers photos on their family album, but if you think about it, they didn't have social media back then, but it's just the same thing lol
I wish things was still like this. I definitely have a great appreciation for things like this.
Literally found this helpful
It actually wasn't too far off in describing characteristics of love that current relationship research has shown to correlate well with successful and satisfying relationships. However, it was a little off in calling love to be mature versus developing. They're simply different types of love that exist throughout your life, but may be more or less dominant depending on your stage of life.
littlery will find this helpful
Beanyhead shockingly I have to admit it did in a much bigger way than I expected
Despite the mediocre acting, this is actually a really meaningful and enlightening video
+Veronica Walton See? It's the message of the story that matters and people complain about too much CGI and that the acting was cheesy and another deserved the Oscar and don't focus on the bigger picture. A lot of people are so spoiled and have so much short attention span, all they want is explosions and don't care about the human connection. This film is a work of art.
William Faulkner fell on hard times in the 1950s and had to write the scripts for these films for drinking money. It's true.
Right!
The mom actually did pretty good
Lol....Well you do know she's going to dump him right? She came to that conclusion at dinner. Just want to get a few dates out of him while she looks.
Thanks, this really helped me understand love. Now I've just broken up with my girlfriend and I'm off to buy a teddy bear which I intend to have a more mature love with.
I'm picturing "Ted" from the movie
+Joe Yes, me too, now i know what i already suspected...love is a choice of responsibility, admiring each other and helping each other out. To say someone is sexy or you like her kisses is not enough, we have to know who we are in the overall mature personality, dreams, interests, and responsibility. Love is not forced it's relaxed. There is no sexual tension, cause love is peace with one another. Love is not one sided or mystery. Love is to be ourselves.
Don't marry someone unless you agree on the fundamental things.

This instructional video taught me more than life ever has. I felt like I was learning something from my mother during the snapshots scene and I got a little emotional. It was so informative and gracious. This generation lacks this type of knowledge. They thrive on immature love. I’m showing my future kids these instructional videos.
. k. I did meth in inner city crack houses for a few years.
I learned less than you'll ever remember.
I have a playlist saved in RUclips full of them. Timeless advice from the 40s & 50s
How are the questions this girl's mom tells her to ask herself still so relevant 70 years later? Man I wish someone would have told me to ask myself this when I was in high school!
We all knew the '50s were racist, sexist, homophobic.
Who‘d’ve thought they also _knew_ things?
@@BlackCover95 Well weren't they racist,sexist and homophobic? Ofcourse they knew things and they didn't deny them,instead looking them head on and providing solutions
Well, people communication basics haven't changed, no matter what media tells you
Human nature doesnt change
Though a bit corny, this bit is actually impressively insightful.
Dirk Diggler i don’t think it’s corny they just used to speak more mature and acting is still kinda like this they lowkey exaggerate
I was expecting another crockpot old-timey video about virginity, but this actually had some really good points. Don't marry someone unless you agree on the fundamental things like religion, children and money.
+Lola B and don't get married unless you haven't been with anyone else in 2 months lol
Children and money are definitely things that should be agreed upon. If one wants children and the other doesn’t attitudes concerning that rarely change. Even if the latter agrees to having children eventually they usually make for a terrible, hesitant parent anyway. Most people get divorced over differences in financial decisions. Spenders rarely become savers and vice versa. Religion, on the other hand, is highly subjective...
Some people change their religion 20 years down the road, don’t have one anymore, or didn’t have one and then pick one up. Some people require church attendance with their spouse while others are ok practicing their religion on their own. It’s all about finding someone that’s compatible with you. Some differing religious or non-religious people work better together than others. I would know, I’ve been in a relationship with my husband for four years and been married to him for two. We agree on children and money but I’m a Christian and he’s non-religious. The fact that we don’t agree on religion has no negative impact on our marriage. Rather, we view religion as a VERY personal choice and respect each other’s opinions. Just as it will be our son’s personal choice when he’s old enough to understand things like that (he’s currently 14 months old). So, I guess you could say that although we don’t agree *on* religion we agree *concerning* religion...
And that’s what makes us compatible.
@CBS 70sfan I am sorry, but the reptile thing in the middle of responsibility and morality had me 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Agreed. Also there is major difference between loving someone and being in love.
@CBS 70sfan no, just that you threw reptiles in there. Seriously, what was it about the reptiles that was a red flag?
I am sorry you lost those years; I was in a relationship way too long myself and should have ended it much sooner.
They need to show this to highschoolers haha
They used to.
+Kitty Well yeah haha
Being a highschooler(going on to 9th) myself I agree

We saw some of these type of movies in the early 80s... in jr high, I am sure. Course, most of my teachers were teaching there when my mom was there 22 years b4 me....🤣🤣🤣
7:00 - Something about them using multiple exclamation points even back then made me smile. ^-^
I cannot get enough of these knowledgeable videos 😍
Did people really start their sentences with "Say...." and use the word "swell" so much back then? Or is that just how they spoke in movies? Sorry random question but I always wondered about that.
My grandparents use those words
I mean, we say “like” and “so yeah”.... so yeah...
The truth is in the middle. Older people talk like that somewhat, but it was definitely exaggerated for dramatic effect.
It's a word whisker.

I'm taking love advice from a show that came out in 1950 am I really that desperate.

Sometimes the old wisdom is right
Just cause it’s old doesn’t mean it’s wrong. Love hasn’t changed since the 50’s, so the advice is still rock solid. Sad that so many people have to learn this on their own and their parents never tell them. What happened to parents being moral guidance?
Good advice is ageless.
Wow... I think I'm born on the wrong age...
These days sure do have lots of opinions.. with no information about what, when, how, why, who. Just do this and do that with no explanation.
This is amazing!
Really wish I was born in these times... Very substantial.
Unlike in this day and age, too many punks, babies, and some people who expect that love and care all their lives they never grow up types.
Nobody says anything substantial, objective, wise, nor knowledgeable.
My mom was a Coronet student. I still have her books. The course served her well.
Love is like taking a risk on a Lobster Cantonese...I finally figured it out. Thank you.
I'm grateful this video exists online, for our generation where many of us come from broken homes and no one to teach us this very important lesson.

That was so nice for her mother to speak with her about this very important topic...and most of all that she felt comfortable enough to go to her mother.. Nice video..
she basically speaks of the types of loves that ancient greeks spoke of 😌
1. “Eros” or Erotic Love
2. “Philia” or Affectionate Love or the love we have for friends
3. “Storge” or Familiar Love
4. “Ludus” or Playful Love
5. “Mania” or Obsessive Love
6. “Pragma” or Enduring Love
7. “Philautia” or Self Love
8. “Agape” or Selfless Love
Best comment ever, thanks for sharing your knowledge!
I would like an agape type of love
Agape is the highest love.

And.....that is a picture of some random couple making out. In their family photo album. Cool.
Hyrum Blanchard mama s got needs to 😆
Why didn't I see this as a teenager?!
I think if your a mom/dad now you should talk to your kids about this.
Because you needed to experience first hand. I even received some advice regarding friendship and spiritual teachers and love, and I still had the urge to crash and burn. Then you remember and store the memory for lifetimes.

It's 1am and here I am watching this video once again. I first came across it after being heartbroken when I was 16. I was so sure I was in love with her. Now, I watch this when I find myself thinking seriously about a new girl, or if I'm feeling down about someone from days gone by. How strongly I can now relate to the stages of puppy and physical love. But mature love? Someone I'm proud of? At ease with? Cooperative with? Agree on the topics of religion, money, children? Those boxes are a whole lot harder to get ticked off. After having watched this almost too many times to count now, I always realise the same thing. I've never really been in love.
2023 update: Funny how I keep on coming back to this video, almost 10 years after I first found it. So much life has been lived, I've had 3 big heartbreaks that have left their scars and important lessons learnt. Ive found, let go of, and lost love.
C'est la vie.
You'll get there, man. All things worthwhile takes time.
"Is he at ease with you?" "No" "does he agree about the important things with you?" "No" "is he proud of you?" "No.... fuck.. excuse me while I reevaluate my life 🤣😭"
what's to say you werent in love with her? maybe you were
It's an old saying, son:
"You live and learn.".
And you are.
Don't give up.
Yearly updates kindly
I wish she talked about rekindling and keeping love as well. Damn this was so good. I want to cry
Would not apply to the daughters situation but yes
@@gracehaven5459 Sure it would. It's just another stage of love.

TheMightyWill honestly, I found this reply just scrolling through and your little reply really helped me right now and that is exactly what I needed thank you so much ^-^
Chin up, princess
Yep, me too.
This is good Question to ask! To me when you know its love, you can't see yourself without that person, and just the thought of them makes your heart skip a beat.When you're in love it's shows .
true love is when you can be 100% yourself with your significant other and he or she sees you for who you really are and still loves you back . And vice versa.
Without any mask, any effort, any game, any ulterior motive.
This is when you find that someone who is at the same time the person you desire physically, but also the person you care about like a family member, a friend, a pet and who reciprocates the feeling.
The purest form of love to me is the one between kids and parents and pets for their owners . As a father and as a pet owner (and a veterinarian and ethologist) i have to say that there is no truer love than the one i get from my kids and my pets. My partner gives me the same love which is even more remarkable because it is not a given like the one i expect to receive from my dogs and cats or kids, but it is a choice on his behalf, which makes it even more beautiful. True love is unconditional , it is not based on the other person's look, situation, wealth, health, or what he or she can provide, it is far more primal and instinctive, almost as if it was an involuntary response, encoded in our DNA.
That for me , is true love. And i think i am the luckiest person in the world because i receive it from, and feel it for, my partner, our kids, my parents, my twin brother and my pets.

"...sees you for who you really are..." When you're in your teens, you don't know for yourself who you really are.
@@wcotton well, i was not a teenager when i met him and i am 45 years old now .
Besides , i believe that if you are raised right, by parents who teach you how to think (which is the most important of all parental duties) , then by the time you are a teen , you are perfectly functional . I was living by myself at the age of 16 thousands of miles from any family member, in a foreign country, and supporting myself financially, and my parents encouraged it. It forges character and develops the personality, because you are face to face with yourself and the reality of life. I don't believe for a second that teens who are raised right do not know themselves and who they really are. My teen daughters and son are perfectly functional and i could die tomorrow and they would still make it without a single problem and no psychological damage.
It all depends on education really. And i don't mean school, i mean what goes on at home and how parents interact with their kids. Perhaps being Scandinavian, parents raise their kids differently in Iceland, from wherever you might be from . But here everybody is operational and functional and usually financially independent by the age of 16 or 17. I am pretty much the same person now as i was when I was 14 or 15. I'm actually more relaxed now, because i do not have to worry about the future anymore and my career is set and on tracks, i'm happily married with great kids and financially very stable. f anything, i believe i was smarter and more intuitive as a teenager than i am now.
Thats awesome! Wish i will be there some day:)
I swear everyone in these videos have a thick northern accent haha
michigan1777 it's actually Transatlantic. C: common in Hollywood during this time.
A’s are too flat to be trans
michigan1777 It was assumed that the entire viewing audience spoke standard middle American, and presumably black people didn’t exist. However, a few of these films have people speaking with clearly southern accents.
Britney Love it gives good variety for all cultures
@@britneylove8564 it's not transatlantic. it's more east Coast suburban.
11:30 honey it's okay if you don't order the same food lol
I think the point is that it could be a red flag because it shows that she has adventurous tastes and he doesn't and may even be a bit prejudiced, which could be a source of major strain in any relationship if applied to things other than food.
@@sophiaschier-hanson4163 it's just FOOD
i like the way they talk, not just the properness, but they have an accent that's very "old-timey", sort of like how british accents sound, but its very middle century american. anyone get what im talking about? haha (:
k1773ns true!! Also reminds me of the voice quality of Snow White
Haha 😂 British accents sound nothing like that usually, come to London and you’ll be surprised
This is the transatlantic accent it was only taught to actors
k1773ns it’s an accent that was taught to actors, they didn’t really speak like that usually back then
I love these videos, partly for their content which is mostly pretty cool, but also for the stilted acting and phrasing. Gives me the giggles. ^_^ We should all stop and realize that these short videos ran before feature films and were created because there were a lot of teenagers who didn't feel they could ask their parents questions like this and a lot of parents who weren't comfortable answering if the teens did ask. The 50s were a far from idyllic time in some ways, these videos were aspirational, they show idealized relationships between parents and young adults, and ideal reactions between people, unless they are showcasing what not to do, or how not to be. I like the videos because they show a lot of calm, non-judgemental interactions and reactions on the part of parents. Too many parents, in all eras, tend to react harshly even to sincere questions, or tend to judge harshly when asked for help or guidance.
Not so much stilted acting but that that was how oeople actually spoke & acted back then. I remember. Language & styles change with the decades. Young people nowdays talk like Valley girls in the movies. Watch moviesfrom the 1930s vs movies from 2020s & notice how inflections are different
These never stop entertaining me
Hold up why do they have so many photos of people they barley knew wtf
That's actually a legit style of scrapbooking for the time. They read more like journals and have more detailed entries with pictures.
I thought most of those were of her growing up and old memories. Nice how the mom took the time to put it all in perspective.
*Barely
I assume the mother loves photography
Not really different than lots of people's social media today.
Jack looks like a 1950 version of Nick Jonas
ok, I lol'ed
Francisco David Martinez I thought the same! Especially in profile at the dinner scene. Couldn’t believe I had to scroll down so far before someone else voiced it lol
Bob looks like a younger Ward Cleaver.
OMG HE DOES
YOU SO RIGHT OMG
Her mother is really wise and a good teacher. I liked how closely Nora listened to her mother as she was teaching her. She understood her mother had knowledge and experience that Nora didn't have yet, and she wanted to learn from her mom because she respected her. Rate today.
Her mum follows the script
Taking time to think about an important question and making plans to come back to it tomorrow.. How refreshing.
I love see these time capsules they show how much things have changed and remained the same.
I've just turned 30 and this is really useful to me :'D
We need these kind of lessons in the classroom now more than ever.
I’ve been in love with my husband since we were sixteen years old and that was 41 years ago. We have been married 36 of those years with four children and two grandchildren. I knew I was really in love when I couldn’t imagine anyone I would rather grow old with. All I know is when you really love someone, their happiness and well being is more important to you than your own and they feel the same way. I would lay my life down for my husband and family and he would too
Bingo! That's the answer to "how do you know it's real love?" When you can't imagine growing old with anyone else, when their happiness and well being is more important than your own and they feel the same way about you, when you protect each other by not taking advantage of each other's weaknesses, when you forgive each other's shortcomings, when you realize that you're not just marrying your spouse, but their family too ... yes, these are the signs of mature love.
This was really fantastic- I didn’t know what to expect because of all the negative 1950s dating stereotypes, but wow… this is just what I needed. Really grounding and wise. Simpler times are where my heart yearns to be.
I’m binge watching all these videos 😊
The guys I know disrespect me. They never want to get to know me as a person. When I'm trying to talk about something I like, they don't seem interested. They really just want to get in my pants. They say they like me, but I never hear from them They make promises and break them. I don't feel like I can be myself around them. I just feel used. They only call me when they're horny. It just sucks. Relationships look hard anyways, and I'm kinda content of being alone.
Depends what crowd you are hanging with...
I'm sorry to hear about your mistreatment. Don't give up hope in finding a virtuous man as mature as you. Think about what you would like out of life, the kind of man that can help you, how you might help him, and likely places where you might meet him.
Same 😢
I here for u bby
Don't settle for boys like that and watch out for ones that only say what they think you want to hear. Make them answer first.
