Dating, What age is appropriate? Options

[youdrivinmegrape...]

What age do you guys think people should start dating?

I've seen so many youg kids like 5th and 6th grade having a lot of boyfriends and becoming obsessed with boys and all that. I was talking to this one girl online, because she wanted me to make her an icon for AIM and it had to do with a boy and over the couse of about 4 days I've done one for 3 different boys and she's 12 years old, so I guess 6th or 7th grade? She tells me all of them. She says something like we broke up. I sad aww I'm sorry or something and she's like oh but it's ok I got another one. So it's like you don't actually love the person or really care, so why do it. I think kids should start like serious dating in high school. The youngest I think kids should date is maybe 8th grade depending on how mature you are...whats your opinion?

If ther's already a topic on it sorry.

yea its so annoying how kids as young as like 10 start getting obsessed with the opposite sex (usually seems to be girls but...)

i think an appropriate age is about 9th or 10th grade, because you're just so much more mature (usually) and are more... yourself. you know what and (hopefully) are comfortable with what your beliefs, self image, and just who you are. this makes people see each other for who thy really are, and then can have easier and better relationships and understandings.

end of speech lol

lol nice speach I agree. I know when I was younger I wasn't much like I am now like with what you said about being yourself and all. Being in the middle of 9th grade, I know more about beliefs and who I am and what not haha yeah
