teenage relationship advice from a humble friend. - December 5th 2011, 12:57 AM

Teenage relationships are simply attractions. Attractions that pass from one to another and are forgotten. These attractions, or 'love' are too easily broken because in order for true love to work wisdom is needed, and for wisdom to be attained one must go through trial and time and then maybe near the end of ones days true wisdom may be acquired. Do not be heartbroken by fools and live in the past, instead live for the future and don't ever look back. Real love develops from these attractions, and if it doesn't work out, don't worry, you just got all the more wiser.

I like it! I think that is very inspiring and will help people!

However, please alot note that teen relationships Do last once in a blue moon. I know 1 couple that have been dating since 14, now they are in there 60's and are married and still are as romantic as they were back in the day! They never dated anyone else but eachother. Its very rare that such things like this happen, but they do. Just take note of it.

Best wishes,
Chris

I agree with Chris about in some cases teen love is true love, but I do agree with most of what you said.

There always will be the one or two couples that last from teens to death, but of course this is not very common.
On the other hand, yes, teen love tends to be a trial and error experience-learn from your mistakes, learn from the hurt, find what you want, find what you dislike, and experience the entire thing only to move on. What hurts you will always make you stronger because you learn how it feels and you aren't as afraid anymore.
In most cases, you can't experience the good without the bad. Don't be afraid if it seems to be coming to and end, it just means there is a beginning down the road.


Leave the past behind, just walk away
When it's over, and the heart break
And the cracks begin to show

This is definitely true. My friend's grandparents have been dating since they were in 3rd grade and are still together to this day. Lots of things make and break relationships, but there is a chance that they can work out.

I do agree with some but as others have said, there are teen relationships that have lasted.

I have two friends that met their Sophomore year of high school, and are planning their wedding for 2013. I have another friend who met her Fiance Junior year, and they are now engaged as well.

I dated in high school, and dating a guy for two years. It was true love, but things didn't work out for reasons that don't need to be explained.

To simply say teen relationships wouldn't work is a big generalization, because some of it isn't true.

I also feel that to call all teenage relationships 'attractions' is a bit patronising.. Even if a relationship does end it doesn't mean it wasn't 'love'. Not sure I really know the definition of 'true love' unless its 'love in a relationship still ongoing' :P
Basically I had a relationship for 3 and a bit years (17-20) and I'm always going to look back on that as love. Even if it did end.
