There are a number of different stages in life and our teenage years are just one of them. In every stage of life we grow and learn. In our teenage years is when we learn to spread our wings, leave the confines of the nest, learn to live and act as we should in the next phase of life called adulthood. This should be the stage of life that in later years we look back on and say these were the best years of my life.
The teenage years are when puberty kicks in. We learn about our sexuality. We learn about the sexuality of the opposite sex and how to interact with them, we become more social. The opposite sex is no longer icky. Some of the learning is done on our own and some is channeled to us in school through social activities produced and monitored by the school.
This is when we have our first date our first kiss and foremost our first sexual contact with the opposite sex. This is when we learn what society expects of us as adults and we learn our work ethics. It is really a short period of time, five years for as of our 18th birthday, ready or not we are declared adults by law.
Relationships don't come just because chronologically you became a teenager. This two is something that must be learned. Not all relationships need be sexual one either as sex is a learned art as well. Relationships are learned and they are learned at ones own pace. Some teenagers are shy and enter into relationship later and more cautious. Other teenagers are more outgoing and headstrong and run head strong into relationships. either way is not right or wrong it is what is right for the individual.
Hardcore-Band-Geek answered Monday July 21 2014, 4:27 pm: Well... A teenager is a young person, typically from ages 13-17. (at 18 you're typically legally an adult depending on were you live) Not necessarily all teenagers are in relationships. I've known people for many years, that are teens, and have never been in a relationship. Being in a relationship does not make you cool, or a legitimate teen.
Is that what you are worried about?
here is my advice, Don't care about what any one says (besides your parents lol) just be who you are.
