[x][edit] - Since being on Advicenators there have been a lot of repetitive questions and innane ones at that. Because of this, I will not be answering as many questions as I had before. To put it simply, some people need to think for themselves. To learn things in life we have to fall down from our hardships, learn from them, and get to our feet again. People aren't just going to spoonfeed you on how to live your life.
To conclude, I'm a level-minded columnist who's not likely to judge. Although I may not understand some situations due to lack of experience, I am an understanding person and will do all I can to help. To people who are "not the brightest crayon in the box", I may appear blunt and brutally honest. Stupid questions deserve stupid answers.
And yes, stupid questions DO exist.

Hey! My boyfriend and I have been going out for ten months in March, and I really think that him and I are in love. Not just in a physical sense, but him and I connect mentally. We both really enjoy intellectual discussions about anything and everything. We can talk about any problems that we're having and the other can almost always relate. We can stay on the phone for hours at a time and not get bored, and both of us are extremely loyal to the other. We're just like best friends excluding the romance part. We're really close. The only thing is, sometimes it gets so discouraging when people say we're too young to be in love. I know we're both in love with each other, but other than getting married when we're able to (He and I are both fourteen), how can we deal with annoying old people who think love can only be understood at a certain age? Thanks in advance.

Usually the reason why old people tend to jump to that conclusion is because at a young age, you're still growing physically and mentally. It's a given that as people age they change, and as people change, there is always that possibility to "fall out of love".
Don't get too discouraged about it though. I can understand how it can get very annoying because they aren't seeing things from your perspective, but they're just trying to look out for you to ensure that you won't get hurt by this guy. An odd way to look out for you, but adults tend to find interesting ways to express how they feel.
As for dealing with them, just reassure them that you are growing up, and explain exactly how you're in love to handle this misunderstanding. What matters is that you're happy, and they should be happy for you as well.
