'In love' with someone new every month

[Hazel Nut]

It's just them being teenagers. They don't really mean it, even if they think they do. it did always annoy me, tho, when people throw around the word 'love' like it was just nothing. It's used out of context, and it just annoys me. But, yeah, hopefully they'll grow out of it. As far as liking people on the internet, I'll be careful, because you never truly know who anybody is

I'm a teenager and seeing people in my school thinking they "love" each other I find to be VERY annoying. Then again I'm not like every teenager...

I do think when people "think" they love another they should try opening there eyes. When people think they love one another(especially in some chicks - no offense to anyone) it can often lead down the wrong path.

Also for anyone who may love another person but the person they supposedly "love" has no interest people sadly do drastic things so they can be noticed and "accepted" by the person who they "love".

Love is a sacred word to me – it should always be, never uttered unless you actually mean it.

I don’t know anyone who has been in love with people every second day, month, and week, whatever. And even if I did, it would amount to a lot of unnecessary drama. I tend to avoid individuals of this nature, because all they do in the end is whine about how they ‘loved’ the individual and then the next day, come back with someone either latched onto their arm, or they are latched onto someone else’s. It makes me shake my head in disgust – harsh as it is.

Does one not value them-selves enough in order to resort to such petty methods and finding new inventive ways to be ‘accepted’ and ‘loved’. Sometimes, I wonder if it’s a psychological thing, you know…?

Being an overly observant person, you have to wonder if its all for the sake of feeling accepted. Were they mistreated by others long enough to become so desperate for the feeling of acceptance? Or is it because, the individual themselves cannot accept who they are and need someone else to verify their existence and accept them for the sake of feeling ‘needed’, or ‘loved’. And it’s not only the teenagers that seem to pull this crap either it seems, which scares me.

If someone’s tired of their spouse, they cheat, or get a divorce, or find stupid and selfish reasons to create drama for themselves. They whine to their friends, their family looking for sympathy. And when you get one side of the story and the other, I sit back and wonder -do they like to fight for the sake of fighting without reason, without building upon it, without working it out to make their relationship stronger?

Is it but only selfish of them to use this as an excuse to break out of their relationship, because they are tired of it in general, or of the person? (I want to get away, so I am going to create drama as an excuse to do it!) I don’t know, that’s how I always seen these types of things. So, don’t think it’s only the teenagers that pull this non-sense off in terms of ‘love’ and ‘acceptance’. Even the adult’s act childish and spoiled if only to get their way, it’s really quiet sad.

Do parents not instill values in terms of love upon their children anymore? It’s like only the truest form of love and friendship and all that jazz exists in the fictional realm of books and movies. ;___;

well, I'm a teenager, too...I guess we're just both too mature for our age groups when it comes to 'love'...or at least, understanding when to use it ^-^

yeah, I tend to ignore the 'drama' people, too. it's so stupid, especially since it's all high school, and there's a slim chance you're going to find love, so please don't be all dramatic about it! sadly, yeah, some people never grow up, and even adults act this way, and some to find excuses to create drama. I think it's partly cuz some people like to gain attention and make people feel sorry for themselves, so they create drama for themselves (mostly in high school, but I'm sure some adults do this, too)

you're really observant, SakasaJinei, you should be a philosopher ^-^

These days for some reason most teenagers choose to stay distant from there parents. This I do not understand. I can't imagine life without my mom or dad. If it was not for there teachings I would probably be like almost every other immature misbehaving teen without guidance but of course there are times I am a bit immature

It is disgusting the way most youth has turned out. It can also be result of peer pressure and what not but that is a whole other chat.

And it is true it is hard now to find "true love". That's not to say there isnt. I believe there is someone out there for everyone. It's just a matter of finding that one person. The scary thing is the world is a big place. You never know what will happen. The person you are probably meant to be with is probably in front of you or next to you or that one person out in the hallway. Only time will tell...

And like what Sakasa said love may only seem like a fairy tell in most casses.....

It can be seen or heard in movies, books, fairy tales, romantic comedies, anime, and even regular cartoons.

It's like a game of cat and mouse if that makes sence. I often wonder who my significant other might be. But like I said in another thread...

With the way the world is today sometime I believe and other times I find it hard to believe.

To the immature teenagers who see relationships as some joke or game or think that they maybe in love they should open there eyes. When I was in middle school I must admit I was one of those kids who wanted to go out with any chick I saw. Then I realized... Why? If I go out with this person what will I do? I don't know her that well or anything....

I opened my eyes and realized that (midway into the 8th grade ) (FYI I am currently in 10th)

I believe maybe 85 or 95% that high school IS NOT the proper place for relationships. The timing is not right and there are a lot of obstacles. Personally I think College is a better place. I would wait till after high school for being in a relationship but if I should change my mind for whatever the reason I would have to get to know somebody before I know I truly like them or not and start out as friends...

I think that's the way it should be....

that's interesting, cuz I'm pretty close to my mom, too, and I'm also kind of different when it comes to acting immature like other teens. Maybe some of it has to do with parents, too. Like, kids who don't get a lot of guidance from thier parents get a less mature understanding of love, because their parents don't explain it to them (did that make sense? ) I mean, love isn't exactly something you can explain, but, well, for example, part of why I don't throw around the word 'love' a lot is probably partly because I heard of the stories of my mom when she was in high school, and understand some mistakes that she made, and I'm smart enough not to repeat them. Kind of like learning from example.

none of that made sense, did it...

Well, when you are a teenager, you’d have to understand that most of them think they are adult enough to make their own choices, so they retaliate against their own parents in order to get their way. So, I suppose that would make sense in the equation, although, another factor in this case would be… a situation that wedges parents from their children – that’s another thread all together I think, as certain circumstances create a storm of tension between yourself and others. So, yes… I would agree with you there.

But, I think I just re-quoted Hazel Nut in a rather elaborate fashion. Haha, I do understand where you are coming from though, certainly. You have the right idea.

Thank you ^-^ and thx for explaining better than I could've ^-^

If I were to rebel against my parents.......
My.... life.... would.... end....

But that is for A WHOLE other thread.

Love is overrated. Buy a puppy, love that.
