Hmmm. I'd say you can have a "real relationship" at 14, definitely. A real relationship means there's mutual affection and attraction. You go on dates. You spend time together outside of school or work or however you know each other. You're committed; not seeing anyone else and not wanting to. Also, you both acknowledge that it's a relationship.
 I'm sure there's a lot I've left out, but that's a good start.  let me light up the sky, light it up for you let me tell you why, i would die for you When you whisper, you must be absolutely as sincere as when you scream. 9 out of every 10 problems in relationships can be solved by talking. So why are we so damn quiet? |

I don't think you have to be a particular age - just at a certain level of maturity. Generally, people don't reach the necessary level of maturity until they're in high school... sometimes even in their early 20's. Everyone's relationship is going to be different as a result, so it's not fair to generalize.

As Robin said, there is no particular age in which you can have one. I have my first long term boyfriend at the age of 13, and we lasted nearly a year. He was also my first kiss. However, maturity level does have a lot to do with it. Considering you should both know that there are mutual feelings, you go out on dates, spend time with each other outside of school. Both people do as the first poster said, need to acknowledge that it's a relationship. Anything less wouldn't be one.

I don't personally believe that a 14 year old can find TRUE love at such an age, but I do think that love can happen. Two of my very best friends met and fell in love when they were both 15 and the other was 16, and they're now planning their wedding. When I thought I was in love back then, I realized I was confusing with lust. Which does happen a lot.

A real relationship to me constitutes two people who are ready for one. If you both want to make a real relationship happen, go ahead. It takes 2 people to want it and 2 people to make it happen. You've both got agree upon it though. Which means, you'll have to deal with the underlying stress emotionally, physically, ect. But, if you can surpass that and accept those things, a real relationship can happen. Tellin' ya.. relationships take a lot of effort, but it's worth it if you're with the right person.

I deffinatly think you can be in love at a young age such as 14. As Robin said, its a matter of maturity.
