Love At Our Age?, Young love Options

[Something Vague]

haha...well, I agree on the "We tend to feel the need to tell eachother that we're in love with them the minute you start dating". I hate the fact that teens like me put "I love you _" the first day they start going out. Well my boyfriend did that at first..and I knew he just liked me a lot. But now..I'm pretty sure it's more than that.

And no,"like" is definitely not the word I would use. Besides, how can you judge how other people feel? How do you know it's impossible..

I think it's impossible because it's a first impression. I don't believe love at first sight. [ fact: it's not possible to fall in love with someone at first sight ]. It just doesn't exist. How could you fall in love with someone the minute you see them? It's stupid. And I'd call anyone stupid and shallow if they believe in it.

^love at first sight
its more like lust at first site.

so yes its true you can't fall in love with someone by just looking at them.

[Itsa_Pnay]

Yes i believe in it....you cant put an age limit on love.My first love came when i was 13 like the moment i saw him my heart just sunk it was amazing i never had talked to him or anything but everytime i saw him its like my heart would skip beats and i couldnt breath....then we finally met eachother he didnt like me like that but omg when we talked it was i dont know how to describe it every word that came out of his mouth made me love him even more....i cryed over him so much....we went out it was a pity relationship you could call it but we lasted 2 weeks i almost killed myself over him yeah it was bad i found out he cheated on me and the whole nine yards....but like i said you cant put an age limit on love.

[Something Vague]

That is what you call a crush at first sight. I think we'll all agree that this is how we feel when we first see a girl or guy who turns out to be your boyfriend or girlfriend.

But we don't always fall in love with them.

[magicfann]

Nah I doubt it. But they say you can fall in love at any age. I mean true love is like Romeo and Juliet. They died from love.

yeah, they had true love and look at how they turned out haha they died

[edit]
crap sorry lol i didnt read that last sentence

You've heard all those sayings like love is blind. But true, mature love isn't. When you love someone, you see all of their faults, all of their imperfections, and you love them anyway. You make a choice to behave in a loving manner even when they annoy you. You don't ignore their problems, and you aren't unaware of them. You just choose to accept the person for who they REALLY are.

I don't get what that has to do with what I said.

[*This Confession*]

sorry
its fixed.

[-sincerely]

Okay, the thing that bothers me, sorry if there's 7th graders in here, but I find it most with them, is that when they have a 'break-up', they complain to their friends about how muched they loved them. I really hate that. I mean at such a young age, I doubt that they know what love is, I mean they haven't even gone through a dent of their life, yet.

I didn't mean to say I believe in love at first sight. I think it's kind of "improbable"
I agree..it's more like crush-at-first-sight

how did you know they weren't really in-love? I'm sure at least a small percentage of them are actually mentally mature enough to understand. Don't generalize..

yes
it matters how quickly they grew up
and realized lifes not as easy as you think.
blah blah

but most don't
and probably all she sees is the ones that don't understand it at all
if you complain after you break up with someone
that you loved them
and how could they do that
aparently they didn't have much love for them.
Love isn't mean, even if your not in the relationship with that person anymore
You can't say you love someone
and complain and hate them so much for breaking up with you.
you should except it and move on.

[janerz14]

thats so true. i agree.

all it matters on how 'mature' they really are. & what not.
everyone has ther own pace.

[*ECD & C0*]

people think they are in love but it is temporary not tru love you may really care but i doubt your ready to spend your life with them

thank you.
I adore you now

[angelrevelation]

i think it's possible... i know this couple who's been together for over a year now, and are still staying together even though they're going to go to separate high schools. everyday during lunch they walk around holding hands and stuff.

as long as you're mature and really care about the person (and don't have a wandering eye), then yes it's possible. sometimes some ppl are really lucky to have met someone they work so well with early on

[*This Confession*]

yea
you just have to hope they don't get sick of each other
meeting each other so early on.

[msladyliberty]

Nope 14- 15 is too young. Simply because at that age, is when teens are trying to find their individualism. So the life lived, is not long enough to truly understand it.

I think "Caring for someone more than yourself" is not enough. There's more to love that just that.

Love can last through anything...as long as the two people involved make it happen. People change through life, so people in relationships have to work together to make it work

[*This Confession*]

and what if these 14-15 yr olds have alrealy found their individualism?

You can't really only put 14-15 yr olds
when therse 20 yr olders and maybe even higher or a age then that
that are still trying to find themselves.

[AngelinaTaylor]

When you truly fall in love, you'll be able to answer that question.

It strictly depends on each individual. I seriously doubt that all these teenage kids who claim to be "oh-so-in-love" are, in fact, in love.

You have to have a rather developed sense of maturity, and most people aged 14-15 don't have that. I can't tell you how many times I've thought I was in love when I was 13-15. That was nothing. I found out what love is only about a year and a half ago, and I regret thinking that I experienced it at a much younger age. It just wasn't true.

So even if those kids think they've in love now (which SOME of them might), they'll rethink it all sooner or later.

like me, well sort of... >.>

[lalalaLANUH]

I guess it depends on the person. I don't think you can put an actaul age limit on when to fall in love. The kids at my school run around going, "Oh I'm so in love. He's so hot." and then they break up with the kid in 2 weeks. I find that annoying. You may be in love. Personally, I believe that if you are in love you wont need to question it. But then again who am I to say?

[nikkkkki]

Yeah, I really do believe at this age we can experience that stuff. I mean, there's already couples our age lasting more than a year. Some people our age have probably gone through things a lot greater of a deal than finding out if it's true love or not. I've been with my boyfriend for almost two months, but I really believe it's gonna last. I've gone through eight months of hardship and draining patience to finally have him in my arms. We loved each other before we even started going out, and waited until the right time to finally be together. I have wondered if maybe I was in love with love itself, not him, but I know now I'm not. We both consider each other our first true loves and we've already planned out marriage. He would die for me. I would die for him. We're going to the same school next year, I have no doubts about him falling for another girl at all. This is some cheesy crap I'm telling you all, but I guess that's what love does to you.
