Debate night: Relationships

Romantic relationships can be exciting, comforting, confusing, intense, messy, or all of those things at once. Whether it’s communication, trust, attraction, compatibility, conflict, or simply figuring out what we truly want from a partner, navigating relationships rarely comes with a clear instruction manual.

Why do some relationships thrive while others slowly fall apart? What actually makes a relationship work in the long run? And how much of love is about effort, timing, chemistry, or choice?

Join us for an open and thought-provoking debate as we explore the challenges, expectations, and dynamics of modern romantic relationships. Whether you’re a hopeless romantic, a committed realist, or somewhere in between, come share your perspective!

This debate will follow a British Parliamentary format with eight debaters split into four teams of two.

Participants who wish to speak are highly encouraged to bring a paper and pen. You are welcome to participate even if you have no prior debating experience.

⚠️ Disclaimer:

We aim for debates that are respectful, constructive, and welcoming.

• Respect ideas and people: Listen actively, stay quiet while others speak, and debate arguments, not identities or beliefs.

• Be concise and civil: Keep questions short and relevant; avoid hostility, hate speech, or discrimination.

• Respect boundaries and time: No unwanted advances or suggestive behavior; arrive on time to avoid disrupting the debate.

• Follow moderators: They guide the discussion and ensure fairness.

Looking forward to seeing you there 😊
