    Shipping is like when you support a pairing or something like that. I don't know what November has to do with it, it's just that people started shipping in November.

    Shipping comes from the word relationship, and it's where two people are paired together that people think would make a good couple. If you support a ship (two people paired together), you like those two people together and want them to get together. Quite often when two people are shipped together, their names are combined together to form a ship name, i.e Stardust + Sabby = Stabby. Also you'll probably see the phrase OTP flying around, that means 'One True Pairing' and it means the couple that one person supports most of all and believes should happen.

    The reason it's been brought up recently is that several couples on the site have decided to make their relationship official and actually start dating. Just by chance (Well initially just by chance at least) multiple couples have happened to get together in a very short space of time. As this has all happened in November, people have started to call November the month of love with so many people getting together.

    Unfortunately with so many people getting together, people have turned it more into a joke and have started adding fake ships to the list (Where the two people aren't actually a couple, people just pair them together or they decided to act like a couple/say they're a couple for a joke) as well as even going as far to trick people into believing it's real to the point a thread is made (Not funny). This is bad and has meant the actual couples that have just started dating and decided to tell people are taken much less seriously or even mocked.

    Let them date who they want and worry about your own life perhaps?

    this is why you will never be in a relationship.

    You're right. I'm destined to be alone.

    I made peace with that a while back.[DOUBLEPOST=1352041972][/DOUBLEPOST]
    I wasn't criticizing. I legitimately do not understand.

    Yeah, just do what this chick does and lurk in the shadows of the forum. XD It's fun hanging out with the Heartless and Nobodies over here. Then you won't see the shipping madness a lot, just here and there and that' s perfectly fine
