Teenage Love?
Do you believe in love in high school? Could it possibly exist?
No way, kids don't know what true love is... But, how many people do you know that dated in high school that are currently married and happy? I personally know about 4 couples very very well that are now happy after being high school sweethearts. Did they just like each other as teens and grow to love each other? When did the "like" change to "love?" In college? Age 21? 22?23? Or could they possibly have loved each other all along?
How can you put an age on love?
I, personally, believe in teenage love. I truly think it exists. Adults that did not fall in love till they were, in fact, adults, will most likely dismiss it. However, some - like my mother, for instance - do not dismiss teenage love. Do you?

Well everyone will have a different opinion. I choose to think that there might happen to be love ebtween some teenagers, yet it this "love" will chand and evolve as we mature. Love is a big word, it means so much and so little at the same time. You love your family aswell as your friends. But you feel a different kind of love towards your partner. We are constantly changing and so are our emotions and feelings. these evolve too.
I believe in Teenage love. I have actually been in a relationship with my lover for 3 years now, and even now it's just like when we first met, he and I have watched eachother grow into adults. And It's just nice to know there are people who don't just instantly dismiss the fact that Teens aren't always "Puppy Love" types.

I do believe in teenage love because I am a teenager. But then again I know some of my friends loved their boyfriend but then ended up breaking up with them.They did go threw a lot of depression because they broke up with someone they truely love.
Me myself is in love with this kid but sadly we aren't boyfriend and girlfriend but when you love someone you can feel it in your gut. :)
i do believe in teenage love. i met my boyfriend of 5 months in one of the wierdest ways. I never even knew him, and keep in mind he lives states away, but we talk ever day.
To start i didnt even wanna go to the place i met him that day. There was a big thing going on down at the park by my house and i wanted to go. By my parents forced me to. So i decided that i would like an annoying teenager and not do anything when i got there. BBBBUUUUTTTT my cousin forced me to go swimming, which i didnt want to. i figured oh ill go down there but i wont go swimming. Well, i go swimming. Then we are hanging out on this dock in the middle and my cousin and i figure oh i will just sit here and do nothing. well she gets me talking to this red head girl. and then someone who is back on the concrete shouts her name and asks her if the water is warm and she says yes... lying. it was freezing. so this boy gets in and comes out to the dock. well must be my cousin knows him because they start wrestling and everything and i, well, push them into the water. the life guard says that if someone pushes again we will get kicked out. well, up the ladder climbs the boy and (he plays football) tackled me into the water. he gets kicked out... well, he ended up getting back in and we hung out, and i really liked him at first glance. and then we hung out. turned out he was staying right around the corner from me. we hung out. and when he came back up we hung out some more.
about a week before i met him, i had a dream about a very handsome, brown hair blue eyed boy who said he would give up anything to be with me even though we live so far away. a week later i meet this boy. we talk every day. even though he lives like 5 states away, i strongly believe this is "true love" because had anything been diffrent, we wouldnt have met, we wouldnt have been able to see eachother again... the list goes on. so i think this is one very good example that teen love exists
