I think 'puppy love' is the way adults describe what young people feel for each other - as a way to downplay the seriousness of it, or a way of calling it cute. Sort of a young love thing.
Young love can be very emotional, and is often more intense than that of adults. This makes it very special, and often very confusing.
Adults can forget what that feels like. On the other hand, they also have years more experience in the field of love and relationships, so what they have to say might be worth hearing.
I personally think that whatever the relationship is, it's down to the two people involved to figure out how they feel. There are no absolutes, and it's more about you feeling like you are in a safe, happy, and caring relationship. [ alisonmarie's advice column | Ask alisonmarie A Question ]
