High School Relationships


Question Posted Friday February 2 2007, 4:29 pm

I look around the site at comments about how high school relationships suck/are based off the wrong things/etc. And I am getting REALLY freaked out, because there's a guy I like (i'm 14 and a freshman by the way) and I want to get with him but i don't want our relationship to end up like all others..I genuinely like him as a person and as a boyfriend so I'm not just lusting after him. I guess my question is, how can i make a high school relationship last past that?

Be friends.

Sounds simple because it is. All the things you would maintain with your best friend - trust, honesty, responsibility, respect, support, etc - are the things you need to maintain in a relationship. If you are both good friends and reach the point where you can both openly express yourselves to each other and not feel weird or awkward, then going into a relationship like that will probably yield better results.

Also, don't let other people get involved in the relationship. None of that he-said she-said stuff. If they trash talk you guys, ignore them. Don't feel like you have to be 100% in love soon either, its OK.

As a test, you can both try to not do things with each other sexually. Why do I say that if everyone else does it? Well, thats my point. Everyone else does it and things go right down the drain afterwards, no matter how much the girl 'loved him'. Make sure you can both have fun and a good time without crossing the line or doing anything stupid. Be straightforward too, don't play games or beat the bush and expect him to know exactly what you mean...I mean come on, we're guys. Hope that helped and good luck.

hay
you should go for it if you really want to.
and beleive me you will probly have heaps of high school boyfriends so dont freak out ok... but some relationships just dont work and some do, you'll figure it out.
to try and make this relationship last you need to know your on the same level as him, you need to trust him and dont lie to him.. just be loyal cos that will help your relationship stay on track. also if you hang out a lot be sure to give him space once and a while cos if you dont he will go crazy and he might end your relationship over it.. and most of all just try to have as much fun with him during your relationship so its not boring for you or him.

Not all high school relationships suck. Some people actually stay with their high school sweethearts for the rest of their lives, or a good period of time. Just be honest to him, loyal, faithful & things should be good. =) If you wanna pursue him, just talk to him if you don't already, and if you think he likes you back, ask him out.

dont feel like its impossible,because its not at all.
me & my boyfriend have an amazing relationship.
heres a few things you can do to try to make things work:
be yourself.dont act fake.
be honest 110% of the time.
be totally loyal.dont flirt with other guys or talk about how hot other guys are.
communicate.if something is on your mind---tell him.he may be feeling the same way.
if you get in a fight,talk to him yourself and dont let your friends do it for you.it will show that you really wanna work it out.
have common sense.example--have manners and dont act like a pig and embarrass him.
be nice to him.even if you are joking around,sometimes they dont find it funny.
even if you dont like his friends,be nice to them anyway.again,this will show that you want it to work.
dont be too pushy about his kissing you in the beginning.a number of my guy friends have said they HATE it when girls do that.

well theres a few and if u want some more or need anymore help,you can IM me at dinoxthunderx.
good luck :D.

Hey,
Okay, well 90% of High School relationships don't last because your "lover" just wants to get in your pants, they like you for a limited amount of time, they want to get their ex jealous, or they hear things that you said that you didn't. ...

If you & this boy don't think you'd do any of this, then chances are you'd stay together for a pretty long time. Keep in mind, however that nothing lasts forever, and from what it sounds like, you want this relationship to last longer. But do you want to be with him for the rest of your life?

Hope I helped, best of luck hun!
