she's not in love!
I have a little sister..and she thinks she's in love. Everytime she gets a new crush, she goes "goo-goo-ga-ga" over him..and then he breaks her heart, and she goes crying to me. She then states how much she loves him even though she only went out with him for a week! She cries and she cries about how much she loves this boy..until she finds another crush another week later! She then states that she is in love with this new boy! She's not just saying it..She actually means it. She really thinks she's in love..and she's only 11!!! It's so frustrating and annoying because when I tell her she's not in love---she gets soo mad. What should I do? This act is getting annoying..she's not in love.
PS she once "loved" a guy she never met over the internet.

She's too young to know the difference between "love" and "like."
There isn't much you can do, really. Most teens (and pre-teens) go through this stage; It's normal. At that age, she probably won't listen to you, which is why she gets mad and defensive when you say that she isn't in love. She could even try to be acting older; like a 16-year-old who can actually go out on dates and things like that.
In a few years, she'll come to her senses and wonder why she didn't listen to you sooner. This will probably happen when she's mature enough to know the difference between "love" and "like."
She's just going through that boy-crazy stage, as some people have said before. She's still in the early stages of puberty; Like I said, it's totally normal.
Just make sure she doesn't get TOO obsessed. You don't want your sister doing things with boys that she doesn't need to be doing (like sex, etc.). If you suspect things like that happening, you should definitely tell your parents.

I think she's growing up, you know? We all go through different stages and I think she's just going through a boy-crazy stage. You should tell her that love is about being with one person, and loving them more than anyone else. If she says that's how she feels now about her current crush, tell her that's what she said before and explain to her what you think love is. Also tell her that loving someone over the internet isn't safe and she's too young to be doing that when she doesn't even know the boy. Talk to your parents if she goes online and talks to boys she doesn't know and then tries to tell them she loves them, because that is really unsafe.
She also may be saying she's in love because she wants attention and wants to show people she knows what having a boyfriend is like. If she doesn't accept what you tell her, then every time she tries to tell you about one of her crushes, don't even listen. Just let her talk and hopefully soon she'll understand that she doesn't love the boys that she thinks she does now.

tell her that if your 11 you dont no wat love is. Tell her that she cant love 13 people. Tell her theres a difference between a crush and being in love. Tell her to listen just once then u wont bother her any more. and she should grow out of it in time. But i understand how annoynig it can be.

tell her shes only 11 and too young to know what love is. and if she wastes all her "i love yous" on a boy she doesn`t really love then she won`t know when she actually means it.
shes only 11, she doesn`t know any better. and since you`re sisters you`re allowed to be mean to her, because no matter what you guys will always love each other.

i think that seeing as how she's only 11 shes just getting all these crushes and thinks she loves them but we all know thats highly unlikely. its just a pre-teen thing and im sure she'll grow out of it sooner or later and become more serious as she gets older <33
