My honest opinion...

[ToxicPaddy]

I personally believe there is no such thing as teenage love.

I haven't had a proper girlfriend. Ever.

But, am I mad? I mean all these songs with stuff about love and everything in it, I don't feel anything for them at all. I think its all fake, and I know it might sound harsh but lol idk, just what I reckon anyway. Anyone else feel the same? I don't know a single person who thinks the same as me. I think that girls at this age are timewasters and it never usually lasts longer than 2 weeks with most people (the people I know anyway).

[Absently]

Isn't it supposed to be really easy to fall in love when you're a teenager anyway? idk, that's what my sphe teacher said ^^ and i believe i've fallen in love and i'm sixteen. [:

It's supposed to be because teenagers are hormonally overloaded, but I haven't and most girls now believe they need a guy to make them happy which is ********. I think teenage love is just fabrication made up from the media, but meh just my opinion*



*my opinion which i am entitled to, so no one have a go. by all means you can disagree, just don't get angry about it

[Virgin Mary]

Paady I love you

[Kardan]

I think it's possible, but not in the sense where you've got teenagers walking down the streets and holding hands. If they manage to grow up together and have kids and such, then I'd say that's successful teenage love. Most of it just crashes and burns though.

[buttons]

yep true, most people our age have very short relationships but what's the harm in that?
i have a friend that met her boyfriend in year 8 and they've been together since, if i remember they've only split up once and c'mon 5 years, that's gotta be something. Just because people are young doesn't mean they aren't capable of falling in love but it's probably false love anyway, like innitbbs says we are apparently more likely to fall in love at our age but if you look back at it you'll just realize you were being stupid and it wasn't actual love although you might've convinced yourself it was at first :P

It's a good thing you're not getting caught up in serious relationships at your age, you're lucky actually, you think everythings gonna last forever and unfortunately it doesn't, atleast not in my experience.

Teenage life is for fun in my view, go out with mates, play football, games whatever and forget girls until like 18!

[Jackk]

your just going off past experience from your love life and your friends, you probably havent witnessed it as you or your friends havent ever felt it but i believe its true.

as you can see from my first post, i haven't ever had a proper girlfriend. and friends have lasted a week or two.

[Jackk]

ino thats what i mean, im not trying to sound mean or anything. i can see were your going from when you say you dont believe it, its because you havent experienced it or even witnessed it, im not saying you should believe it i guess its up to the person. i just think before making a statement like you did you should of atleast experienced it before jumping to conclusion.

I understand what you mean, but you hear all the time about teenagers breaking up after a week or so, and being so 'heartbroken' about it, just doesn't sound real to me :)

[Bun]

put it this way. you have no idea what love is until you fall in love. it's impossible to describe.

[Moh]

For it to happen, you have got to know the person for a long time.

You can't just say hi a few times, then end up going out. Ever heard of the term Puppy Love?

[Hazza]

My mum + dad meet when they were teenagers been together ever since...
teenage love - there's proof.

[FlyingJesus]

That's like saying I'm not a teen millionnaire therefore no such thing exists

[beth]

my brothas and sistas let us rejoice and realize da fact tht all modern day teen relationships iz 4 DA SEX

[RedStratocas]

depends on your definition of "love." some people think you can love multiple, perhaps many people over the period of your lifetime. if you think that way, then i think teenage love is totally real. perhaps a bit idealistic and naive, but still real. but if youre one of those people who believes that theres only one person you can ever truly love, then maybe not so much, purely on the naive point.

that being said ive been dating my girlfriend since i was 17 and she was 16 and we've been together a good 15 months. even if we dont end up spending our lives together or whatever im not gonna deny even in the future that i loved her.

i tend to have long explanations lol, but basically what it boils down to is what you think love is.


I understand what you mean, but you hear all the time about teenagers breaking up after a week or so, and being so 'heartbroken' about it, just doesn't sound real to me :)

honestly i went through all of high school, and obviously you hear about people going out then breaking up 2 weeks later, but thats such a small number of students. i had a bunch of friends in high school who maintained multiple year relationships. most people at least went a couple months.

That's why you don't belive in tenage love coz you haven't had any.. i belive in it or there wouldn't be any point in dating until your 20? so i don't agree with that at all.

[JACKTARD]

one of my relationships lasted 2 years, started when i had just turned 13 and finished just recently

i would, however much disagree with the initial posters comments on teen love, find it hard to believe a relationship at the age of 13 - 15 could be considered "true" love.

With respect, how old are you?

Precisely.

I'm 15

Love is there for everyone. It doesn't matter how strong or how weak the love is, it's still there. You will have love for someone maybe, but it's just not as strong which makes you think the way you do.

[Cyndia]

I've been infatuated a million and one times, but only ever legit been in love once, and it wasn't until I was 17 and took me well over a year before I was entirely certain and comfortable with saying it to them. So yeah, I have to disagree with you on how you think teenage love doesn't exist, but I will say it is rare to find. It really just depends on the emotional maturity of the people involved (if they're willing to commit and aren't the flighty types that go from one gf/bf to the next every other week) and if the people really do go well together or not and can compromise with each other. I also personally believe the amount of time you spend with them will go a long way towards leading you to falling in love. Thats partially what makes it so hard to fall in love when you're a teen.. You might only get to be around them in school or just from time to time, as opposed to spending a LOT of of your time with them in various locations, or even living with them once you're an adult. I think it's impossible to fall in love if you don't spend a lot of time with a person or at least if you can't be around them physically, talk to them a ton/get to know them well, which like I said makes it difficult for teens since so many aren't willing to commit the time/take the time to get to know someone. I know I certainly wasn't willing for the longest time! I was all about the looks haha.

And for the record, love is a wonderful experience at the time, but I once heard this quote that was so irrefutably true. The truth is when you love someone, you give them the power to destroy you. And sometimes the people you love are crazy or immature or things change, and despite any promises they make about never wanting to hurt you, they'll still end up completely ripping your heart and your life apart. Don't listen to me though really, I'm just bitter and jaded :)

[Richie]

I do think there is a such thing as 'teenage love' some people just have to wait for the right person :)

yeah i TOTALLY disgree with your last part.
your not bitter and jaded... they really DO rip you apart ive felt it. and when you think of them with someone else you just wanna be sick or if they insult you or something i dnno.
its not 'teenage' love. the short term for that is a crush:D
ive felt it... yet i was only 12 when i did? lol it sounds young doesnt it. but i did i felt that crush when i was 12.
butterflies and all:rolleyes:
now im almost 14:P and i still like that guy - even though i never see him anymore so i prove you wrong on tha tpart where you say something like oh you cant crush on someone you dont see daily cause you actually do cause i did and do now!
for one and a half years... wow!
lol bak to the point.
crushes arent hard to find rlly...
anyways the guy who posted this post in the first place... you must either be an asexual which means you will never have true feelings for anyone, or just late developing in love/crush or whatever you wanna call it!
kkz all things answered happy you should be klklx;)

[[DC]eption]

Just cause you aint felt it doesnt mean its not possible.

[leah]

There is no specific age at which you can experience love, the end.

[Ali]

i do sorta know what you mean but i dont agree with it.
i do believe in teenage love if you find the right person but also i think the word love is thrown around too much these days which is probably what confuses you and other people.

[iAdam]

That's like saying I'm not a teen millionnaire therefore no such thing exists

Seconded.

I have to disagree, just because you've had no experience of it or haven't seen it properly doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

I'd say it does exist, but you have to work for it, like someone has mentioned you can't just talk for a bit then go out, that just isn't gonna work. Great things require time.

You have to get some relationships down, or you'll be really frijid and be lacking experience which helps.

[Janet Snakehole]

i get what you're saying, but everyones different :)
