i'd like people's opinions- do you believe that it's possible for two teenagers to fall in love? i'm 16/f and he's 17/m. this is our relationship in (very small) nutshell:

we talk about everything. we care about each other to the deepest, most loving extent possible. i don't see other guys [friends, random guys] in the same way i used to. neither of us would ever do anything to hurt the other [emotionally & physically, for that matter.] and anytime either of us even suspects something is wrong [which has only happened twice], we bring it up and talk through it. he makes me genuinely happy- the happiest i've ever been in my life. i'm constantly in a state of bliss when i'm with him, no matter what we're doing or what's going on. we've been dating a year and almost seven months. i can honestly see marrying him and spending the rest of my life with him. no words can describe how much i love him.

i'm sure i'm forgetting other things. but anyway- in love? or just a "teenage love"? [in your opinion. of course, my opinion is the former, haha.] thanks in advance (:

It doesn't matter how old you are to fall in love! In my mind, you have to really believe in the feelings you get when you fall in love & not be cynical to ever experience falling in love with somebody. I mean, who knows? You could be 12 years old and fall in love. Not a very likely story (obviously), but anything can happen. But no one can really tell you whether you're in love or not. It's not just something like..."Maybe I'm in love." It's instinct. You just know when you're in love! And I've heard it's the most incredible feeling anyone can get. In some cases there is a difference in teenage love & falling in love but who says you aren't falling in love as a teen? Follow your heart, because your heart is the only thing that can tell you, you're in love. "Trust with your heart, & not your mind."
