Bf/Gf labels in highschool? Options

[swimgirlarc]

yes i did a search on this


who here uses boyfriend/ girlfriend labels in highschool and why??

i'm just wondering. Personally i dont believe in the whole BF/GF label concept in highschool cuz comon...its highschool. If you do have a BF its not like the relationship is going to go anywhere. I mean i can see labels in college where ur BF could be a potential husband, but thats different. When guys ask me to be their GF, i just say i'll go on dates with them. I feel anyone who slaps on the GF/BF label is claiming this one person so everyone knows. Does anyone feel the same?


Also, does anyone think that girls who have a million bfs are actually insecure? sometimes I think girls go out w/ guys in highschool just to brag to other girls, because getting a guy is like showing other girls that theyre the most beautiful, so they're better.

i was kinda rambling there, but if any of you understand what I mean, dont be afraid to post your opinions.

Look at this

I understand what all of you are saying, but that's just my opinion. I live in a somewhat poor community and go to a public school, and most of the relationships that went on after highschool ended in divorce or fights. Last year, a couple that was dating since highschool broke up, and the guy came to the girl's house and shot her sister and new boyfriend. I really do understand what you're saying, but after highschool, people take different paths. People change alot in college, and if a couple isn't going to the same college, they have different experiences, etc etc.

Maybe in depends what kind of highschool you go to. I've never really gone to a school where the majority of the kids are from upper middle class/ upper class families, so I wouldnt really know.

aaaand there have many studies on this, so its not entirely a generalization.

You know, just because relationships don't last doesn't mean you shouldn't take on it. If you like someone, they should be with that someone (if the relationship is mutual). Who are you to judge people's decision based on statistics? Even though a lot of people got divorced, there's still a majority who lasted until they died. I don't want to live my life alone and basing my love life on data that had a lot of people get divorced.
