Is starting a relationship halfway through senior year worth the experience?

<p>Just curious.</p>

<p>I am in the same boat as you bro.</p>

<p>I mean, the curiosity boat. I don’t even know that girl well enough to be called her friend >_<</p>

<p>I’d say yes. Live in the moment. The relationship could end in a month or it could last until you go off to college or perhaps even farther. All relationships teach you something. I’d say it’s worth the experience.</p>

<p>Yes I would say it is, because just in case you move away from each other, you could still get each other’s email, contact number etc… so it really doesn’t matter.</p>

<p>It is better to have love and lost (well, in this case left), than to never have loved at all.</p>

<p>Relationships just happen, you can’t really plan them. You can decide that “it’s not worth it” but inevitably you could fall in love with that person whether you like plan on it or not. And making it an official relationship won’t change that fact. Whatever happens, happens. </p>

<p>But if you are asking if it is worth it to acknowledge that relationship, then my answer is simply yes.</p>

<p>Thanks guys, I was hoping that if I got negative answers to this thread, ob well, but if I got positive answers I would gather up the courage up to ask this guy I like out, at least to winter formal. But there are so many other factors that I have to consider, such as the opinions of my parents and friends on him, which are not good. The thing is, I don’t feel like I can judge him because I have many shortcomings as well. I also don’t think he’ll say yes, because it seems like he still hasn’t got over the girlfriend he had last year.</p>

<p>This is actually quite common at my school. Lots of seniors start getting together once college apps are out of the way. If you choose to proceed, good luck :)!</p>

<p>Yes 10char</p>

<p>Good 4 u, i don’t have the guts to ask a guy out even for school dances. I usually just chill for someone to ask me- and they usually do.</p>

<p>I’d say go for it. I had the same doubts when one of my friends started crushing on me but I just said “You know what? I don’t know why I would say no” and we’ve been dating ever since. I’m currently a freshman in college, 2nd semester. My boyfriend attends a school close by. <3</p>

<p>I just don’t have the guts to ask that girl out >_<</p>

<p>

I met this girl second semester of high school, and we talked a lot and had several conversations, all in good spirit. She had the perfect personality in my opinion, very care-free, and I was totally into her in less than a month. A few months later, I asked her to prom and she rejected me within 3 seconds of asking: I didn’t even get to finish my sentence.</p>

<p>Hope you have better luck than me; just for the record, there’s nothing to lose. I was glad I asked though because I have since bumped up my style in hopes that my next time will go better in college. The whole ordeal was good conversational practice and I found that the rejection motivated me to worry more about my personal hygiene and what not.</p>

<p>Totally agree with this post (hopefully the quote feature on the iPhone app works). I think it’s better to have had the happy memories than none at all.</p>

<p>blahblah9393, at least you were a step ahead of me,</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>It’s just that I noticed her so late in the year … and now high school is coming to an end.</p>

<p>And, THANK YOU :smiley: for the wishes :)</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>You read that Lord Tennyson :D! Or is it listen to Poison :p?</p>

<p>I’m having this dilemia too! I’ve been friends with this guy since 8th grade; we can talk about anything and totally understand each other. We have the same sense of humor and maturity level, and we have pretty similar interests. We’ve liked each other before, but nothing ever came of it.</p>

<p>I’m pretty sure he likes me right now (I know him well enough that I can tell), and it’s definitely mutual. We could be going to the same school next year (He’s for sure going, and I’ve been accepted). I don’t wanna try and push anything yet (he’s a swimmer, so he’s beyond busy/tired all the time until season ends), but I just wanna see what would happen.</p>

<p>Manders, what is stopping you? Go for it :)</p>

<p>Yeah manders, you definitely need to go for it! I would, but this guy and I have become friends over the past year, and I don’t want to destroy what I’ve built up over the past year by popping the question…
But you, on the other hand, know this guy loves you, so you have nothing to lose by asking!</p>

<p>I think it’s a good experience but if things work out really well, then you might end up really upset when you go off to college. </p>

<p>My boyfriend and I got together in November of this year and we are both seniors. I am academically inclined and he is smart and an athlete. I am staying local and going to the University of Arizona in the fall and he doesn’t know where he is going yet because he is waiting to see where it would be the least expensive but he is getting offers as far away as Wisconsin. I know that wherever he goes it will not be here. </p>

<p>While I’m trying to enjoy the next few months with him, I know it is going to be so difficult to have him leave and as much as I want us to, we probably won’t stay together. It is causing me a lot of anxiety to think about.</p>
