In my opinion, nobody needs love. It's a farce. The only thing love provides is the chance to feel inadequate, sacraficing your dreams and wishes to the whims of someone who only wants to crush you. Do you really want to be a crutch for someone too weak to help themselves? If you fall in love, you'll become one. Nobody needs love. It only inhibits your true success.

NOwadays, I think people miss understand what love really is. ANd they don't portray love the way God intended. Couples get pregnant and don't get married, or get pregnant and then marry-that's not the way God intended it to be, for two people of the opposite sex to experiment with one another and get torn emotions from it. Many think love is having sex, and really it isn't.

I believe that Love between two people as in "falling in love" can be done with people who are thinking of having someone to share their life with.... forever. As in getting married with no divorces. If you are in love then you really love somebody and divorce shouldn't be an option. I believe that love can and does exist but it's hard to find. Like true love. You don't want to just fall in love with anybody. Because if you fall in love with someone they might not be in love with you. That person might just be using you. They might be leading you on. But true love is awsome!!!! Having a best friend for the rest of your life and knowing that only you two share this with each other that is really cool. But I don't think that everybody knows what real love is.

"Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal. And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing. Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all thigs, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails. But whether there are prophets, they will fail; whether there are tongues, they will cease; whether there is knowledge, it will vanish away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part. But when that which is perfect has come, then that which is in part will be done away. When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things. For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall know jus as I also am known. And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love. "

1 Corinthians 13

Let's face it:

Being teenagers, we are all hormonal.

In rare cases, true love does exist between teenagers... but... usually that's not the case... people tend to care about the body. Well, i'm not one to talk, because i'm a guy, and like most men i do indeed like women's bodies, but if i could find a girl i acutally loved, that would be better than a relationship based on looks.

That is all.

I think that teenagers can be in love, but that when most people our age use the word love, they don't necessarily really mean it. The word is overused and under appreciated. Too many people confuse like and love or love and lust. I am in love, and there is no doubt in my mind about that. I think that love is caring more about someone else than you do about yourself, and I think that this can be felt by any one of any age. However, I also think that many people confuse passing infatuations with real love. Love has to be lasting, or else it is just a momentary obsession.

I def* think that at whatever age you can fall in love. Say its your first boyfriend or whatever. People say you have to have other elationships to compare it too..Well I say~If you feel more for that person then you have EVER felt for anyone esle..your in love~But if you have to question love, your not in it. I knwo for fact that whe I was 14 I was in love with a kid named Chris. I NEVER questioned it and to this day I don't. If you stop loving someone then you never loved then to begin with because you never stop locving someone you just learn to live with out them..I have only been in love once and I still am in love~And I always will be..

*me

I believe love can come at any age but I can't trust love because too many people have used.

it's weird
adults think we can't fall inlove with someone till your old
welll i think i may have found the one guy
i'm 14
and i don't think i can live with out him
i have knowin him 4 years
and he loves me just as much as i love him
tell me if you think it's true
and it's yet weird
we don't have alot in common but we learn alot from eachother
l8er
p.s. and he's a good kisser, just thought id be a little bit silly!

love does not come with an age limit... love does not know ages... does not know numbers.... therefore how can anyone say that you dont know what real true love is until u turn a certain age... anyone one who says that has a closed mind and needs to open up and realize what kind of world we are living in these days... i am only 14 years old yet i have expeirenced true love... probably more pure than any older persons love... i have been dating my boyfriend for a year and a half now and i love him very dearly .. we have been thru a hell of alot together... once again u closed mind thinkers mite feel " what could a 14 yr old go thru that could possibly be so bad and compare to what us adults go thru?" well dont get me started on that... i have been thru more than what most people go thru n there whole life... im not here to make u feel sympathic towards me because of that... im just proving my point... real life expierences, good or bad, know no age... they come when they want to..not once you get to a certian age.

Why do adults laugh when you tell them that you found your true love? Many adults believe that it's kinda impossible to truely be in love when you are a teenager. Well I found my true love. We have been going out for 16 months and have been engaged since June. We are getting married in July of 2004!

(the title i got from a dc talk song lol)

well any ways who really knows what love is??
i dont. thats for sure.
i was going out with a girl last year i was in 8th grade she was a freshman. I really think it was love but a few weeks into high school she dumped me. i mean were still friends and all but i mean when ever i look at her and that inoccent smile of hers i nearly break down into tears knowing what could've been.

i think u can be in love and be in high school whos to tell you your not only you can decide if your in love or not!!!!

Ok, I believe that love is always going to be there, it's our ability to find it that may be in question. Often, people don't give other people a any chance to see the love they have for them. Then there are people who don't give themselves a chance to see if they can find the love for that person, because they have some kind of prejdice or negativity. Also for people who say love is not perfect, you are wrong. Love is perfect, we are the ones who arent. If you really believe that the perfect love is there, than it is, but if you never give it a chance you are pushing away your own ability to love. If you find something perfect, don't just convince yourself that its not and find the flaws to prove it. Just accept that its perfect, some things in life can be that way. Trust me I would know.

I don't know what love is anymore. You see these idealistic romances onscreen and stuff, but in life we all know that it's rarely that easy to find a pure love with no problems. I know a girl who would give anything to be with this guy. He's already got a gf and they always look so in love. He's also fairly older than her. This girl has put her feelings on the shelf because she thinks realisticly and doesn't want to break up the good thing they've got going.
About age being a factor- It is when it doesn't need to be. Who's heard the phrase 'Old soul in a young body'? You don't have to be old to fall in love, but our society dictates a certain age for 'true love', and I think that, overall, this is the best choice. I am now open for cross-ex.

i believe that there is still love. there is love amoung family and friends. but there probably isn't love amoung strangers anymore people dying and hatred it is just sad people can be so cruel.

I think there is still love, but it's very rare. People now in days would say they love each other, but end the end, they split up because of something...they seem to grow apart. I'm afraid that will happen to me one day. Married couples dont seem like they are married. Everything changed and the definition of love for many people have so changed. for some reason lust matches with the definition of love. and when lust fades, "love" fades. thats the true definition of love for me for today.

Some parents don't know squat about love. Especially those that divorce (no offense meant to anyone!!).
"Till Death do WE part."

I trully believe in love. It doesn't matter what age you are or what race or anything. I also believe that there is the one out there somewhere and that you'll find them if you look hard enough and open your heart.
I think that everyone will probably love many times before they find there true love and everyone will get there heart broken at least once.

i agree, love exists, but theres no such thing of true love. to me there isnt.
