im in love with my boyfriend. i am 16 he is 15. we have been best friends for a year and dating for 6 months. i KNOW i am in love with him. its just that feeling you get. unmistakeable. however no one believes me. he doesnt even believe me! he thinks it is infatuation. he says he is in love with me but everyone always tells us its only highschool and teens cant fall in love. so then he starts thinking that maybe its just infatuation or lust. my parents say i am too young for love and my friends say they dont believe in love. even the ones with boyfriends say things like they love their boyfriends but just in the highschool love way. but i am absolutely positive that i am in love with my boyfriend. he means absolutely everything to me and we have gone through alot together. how can i get him to believe this? do you think teen love is real? is it just infatuation? why does everyone say this?

At least the whole in-love with my boyfriend part. Me and my boyfriend (husband as we say ;]) have been going out for about 5 months noww & we are IN LOVE. Theres ALOT of people that are so jealous of being in love like us, and we are like the couple of the school ;] But believe me hun, dont listen to um. If you KNOW your in love, thats all you need to know is how you feel. So just dont listen to them :]
sia answered Wednesday March 11 2009, 6:15 am: well what can i say?i was only 17 when i had my first real true love and i still love that boy and never forgot him so i no for myself that you can have true love at such a young age.you cant stop the way you feel about someone and the only way you can prove it to him is by shwoing him how true you feel about him..the little things do matter and just keep that love real between you two.dont listen to others because thats what will break you guys up.you may even want to have that talk with him and just tell him that you dont want to be like every other couple who dont believe in love or dont love you want to be the couple who have true and real feeling for eachother.tell him that this is from your heart..u cant lie about true love then in a few more years when ur still with him itll prove everyone wrong even your parents:) hope this helped [ sia's advice column | Ask sia A Question ]
