Hey, I’m usually the one giving advice. I don’t need advice. I just have a question and I want to know your opinion. This question is for deep thinkers. Long answers are encouraged as well as comical ones.
I’ve seen quite a lot of “love” questions, asked by adolescences. What would you call "true love"? Many people have been saying “I have a boyfriend and I REALY love him” and “she said that he loves me” or things like that. I’ve seen these questions being asked by 13 year olds! Teens DO have deep affections for people, but I really don’t think that they are capable of TRUE love. How can there be love if teen relationships only last 2 months or even 2 years! 2 years is quite long for a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship, but shouldn’t love last a LIFETIME? I agree that teens think that they are in love (I’ve been there) but I wouldn’t call that love. I would call it more like, “deep affection”. After all, if love between teens is really “love” then they shouldn’t break up, right? I think that teens are too young and “unexposed” to have TRUE LOVE. Even adults. They mistakenly call their relationships “love”. If it was actually love, then shouldn’t there be less or no divorces?

I completly agree with you there. I ask myslef the same question over and over all the time. When I hear people at school or at the mall wherever..young people and teens etc..saying I love you or even asking for advice about it on here I just don't understand it. Now im not saying anything against people who say it, but it makes no sense to me how people who are so young can actually say and mean I love you. To me love is such a powerful emotional thing and to say that to someone who you go out with for a short period of time or even "2 years" doesnt make much sense.People say it so lightly and take it lightly when really saying I love you is so powerful and meaningful. Thats my take on it. But I wanted to say that I definitly understand what you are saying.

Thanks a lot. On this site, young people say "I'm in love", (especially those who want to get with the person they are in love with) really don't mean it untill they know who that person really is. And for those who are together, I'm possitive that they will break up months later, if not weeks. It's highly unlikely that 13, or even 15 year old couples will end up together.
