My longest relationship lasted 9 days. Is something wrong with me or is everyone this way? I guess I lose patience with one guy too fast:-/

1st: looks like somebody spilled his coffee this morning!
2nd: So when do real relationships start?

It depends on what your goals are in the relationship. If you date just to have fun, then you're not going to have long-lasting relationships. If you date for something more than that, things will probably last a lot longer.

It also depends on the guy. Even if you might be interested in a long term relationship, the guy might not be. Or vice versa.

I don't know if there's any secret to long term relationships. They just happen, although there are things you can do to help them stay strong. My first relationship lasted for 9 months until my girlfriend and I realized we weren't actually in love. We were really just dating because we thought it was what we were supposed to do. We never talked about the future or our plans for the relationship. Compare that to my current relationship, which has lasted nearly 3 years. I made sure to talk things over with my girlfriend about where we wanted to be after high school and college. I think we've gone so long partly because of communication like that.

Hmm, that was probably more information than was really necessary. Ah well.

Hun, there is nothing at all wrong with you. However I am curious as to why you feel you need to date at such a young age. I am not doubting your maturity what so ever so please don't get me wrong. Maybe you should focus more on becoming friends with guys first before jumping into relationships. And also, because your relationships are short, you may have a distorted view about relationships. Perhaps you are really eager to experience love for the first time or maybe you just really like the idea of having a boyfirend around. If that is the case, you may become disapointed each time when you realize that you're not receiving the kind of joy you're expecting from these boys. Remember that everything takes time, life requires patience. And also remember that you are worthy and special all on your own, you do not need a guy to "complete" you.
