Are teen relationships acceptable, or are they just another form of kid play? Adults believe that teens don’t know what love really is and while I do believe it is possible for teenagers to love one another, I also believe that most don’t know what real love feels like.

The feeling of true love comes with age. At this age, teenagers are still exploring the world around them and the people in that world. They don’t know what it feels like to really be in love, because the only things they have to compare it with is the love for their family and friends. This is not the same as being in love.

Teenagers believe they are in love; sometimes just after a week. You can’t truly fall in love with someone after a week. Though you might love some specific things about the person, like his/her looks or personality, you don’t truly love the person. Teenagers throw around the word love like it’s a ball, but it’s not a word to be played with. You should never tell someone you love them if you don’t mean it, or if you’re confused, or if you’re just speaking in the moment. Love should be genuine, from the heart and given only when one is sure. One day, when they get older, teenagers may understand the true meaning of love.
