High school relationships

<p>Do you think they are worth it? Is it idiotic to get into a relationship that most likely won't last? I mean after all, the point of dating is to find your soul mate. Do most relationships carry out into college? Do they last if the two are thousands of miles away from each other?</p>

<p>It’s all up to you whether or not you want a relationship. My experience I’ve had 3 or 4 boyfriends. Didn’t work out because I grew as a person and he didn’t respect that. I started dating my current boyfriend right at the end of my senior year, his junior year of high school. 2 Years later we’re now together been together for 1 year. My brother met his current wife, (2nd girlfriend) in high school. He was a sophomore, she a junior. They’ve been married for 7 years now. As for long distant relationships, not ideal because there’s temptations, time zone changes, etc. However, if the two are meant to be then it’ll work out.</p>

<p>I dunno. I’ve been with my girlfriend for nearly a year now and we’re rather dedicated to each other. One of my friends has been with his high school girlfriend for more than five years now. I think if you’re meant to be and you’re willing to put in a lot of effort and communication, it can work. Easier if you’re not thousands of miles away, but :P</p>

<p>Same thought here, if you’re willing to put in the work then its a go. but the distance does put strains on the relationship.</p>

<p>Hahahahahahaha</p>

<p>My bf and I have been together for almost a year and I am completely in love with him. I’m just terrified of the thought of being separated after college. Our top picks are on separate coasts so I’m scared of what will happen to us. Luckily we still have a year until we leave. Thanks for your guys’ examples and advice! Makes me very hopeful :]</p>

<p>[thread=1147344]Here is a pretty long thread talking about it[/thread]</p>

<p>lol statlanta</p>

<p>People are too self involved as teenagers to date, or they should be anyways.</p>

<p>I’ve been dating my boyfriend for a year and some change and I can’t even THINK what it would be like to just break up after high school. I think that just because some high school relationships don’t work, doesn’t mean you can just stereotype the rest of them.</p>

<p>Idk, I’ve never been in one, and I’m actually quite happy.</p>

<p>It depends how close you are and how long you dated whether or not you should continue in college. I know people who dated all through high school and then went on and are still dating in college. And I actually know one couple who is getting married soon and they have been dating since their sophomore year of high school. I wouldn’t say they are worthless. You learn a lot sometimes too and they are good experience. I learned how to judge guys on whether they are good or total a**holes based on certain ones from high school experience:P</p>

<p>We’re all just monkeys, lads. Here to survive and reproduce. Date if it gets you there. Otherwise, what’s the point?</p>

<p>Sorry, I don’t believe that. Love is too irrational to make it ‘just another way together us to procreate’</p>

<p>It’s just chemical reactions taking place in your brain…it’s not magic and it’s not “irrational.”</p>

<p>I love how few posts there are in the
relationship thread
pretty much explains the demographics of CC</p>

<p>I’ve had a couple semi-serious relationships in high school and, in my opinion, they’re more trouble than they’re worth. There were some nice moments, which I can look back at fondly, but I’ve experienced more anxiety and “heartbreak” than I would like to admit.</p>

<p>However, on the other side, I think they’re important–especially to those who would be considered “nerdy”–because they teach individuals social skills they may be lacking. </p>

<p>Now, I’m gonna stop looking for my “soul mate” and just have fun with those who cross my paths.</p>

<p>to me, yes.
to others, no.
i love myself too much to be with someone else. i know it’s wrong or w’e but i can’t take care of another person. i value my happiness more than i’d value his. like samantha from satc2 said, “I love you, but I love me more” ahhahaha</p>

<p>That’s actually quite beautiful. A little narcissitic sounding though, just be cautious of that ;)</p>

<p>haha i know, but i’m 2young2beserious about ANYONE right now -__-
teenagers who think about marriage scare me. :expressionless: god, just live in the moment haha</p>

<p>it depends on different people.</p>
