Let's be honest. By now you're either in a relationship or know someone who is in a relationship. But when was the last time you asked yourself: "Why am I with this person?", "Out of all the other people I know, why did I choose him/her?", and then "What can this person do for me that i can't do myself?" Now you may be thinking where I coming from with these questions. Well I realized that when the relationship is broken off, other than thinking of the past, its better for the mind to learn from their mistakes and the x's mistakes so your next relationship can go smoother. Then you have a person like me who feels that the time I'm not in relationship is the best time to shape myself for that special person. In addition to that, I've been taking my own advice: Its better to wait for that special person than to rush for anyone that's good enough. Do you think the same or otherwise?

I definitely agree...it's much better to wait for someone special.
I think that there is a teenager can learn from a few real, meaningful relationship. They learn how to love, and how to become stronger when the breakup happens.

and then came to a reasonable conclusion and understood why i liked a person, and i am and have been in deep like of someone but yeah, we aren't getting into a relationship anytime soon :) we have goals to meet before we can even think about all the love dove stuff but what if by the time we are ready for it, we aren't in that same mind set and don't like each other, i guess this is the real test of love and life

I think teenage romance is a good thing in most circumstances. You learn how to be with someone basically in preparation for that special person you plan to spend forever with if it doesn't happen to be that teenage romance. It prepares you for everything you will face in the future when it comes to dating. Sure, you shouldn't just date anyone, but maybe you should get a variety in to see what kind of person you really want if that makes any sense.
Too many kids rush into a relationship because they want to be loved...or because they don't want to be "alone"...which I think it is ridiculous. Half of those people don't even know what love is. They say it so easily that they disgust me sometimes. It's so hard for me to even look at them! lol thanks for letting me get my frustration out. I don't want to say too much haha I might offend some kids real bad.
People who are in relationships just to be in a relationship don't deserve a relationship. The world is an ironic place. I definitely agree with you.
I really agree with you. And, I consider all of my past relationships (official and unofficial) learning experiences. I let guys teach me what I want and don't want lol. In the ideal world, I would say that it is better just to wait for that perfect person but I can't say that I am doing that. You know nobody really wants to be lonely. It is during those times though, that I have taken the time to work on myself.
