a very close friend of mine starting going out with a girl when he was twelve, & in english year seven, no idea what that is american wise.
he was with her right up until year 13 & 18 years old, when he died.
it proves that these things do really work out, but it takes a lot of effort & only
occasionally a few pull through.

Oh, wow.
Then, I guess it does work out.
I think it might be rare when it does work out, but I do agree that it must take a lot of effort.
I'm sorry that he died :[

That's sad that he died.
It can work out, but I'm guessing that those two where probably more mature than other's there age?
And it might just be me, but it seems like americans that age are particularly immature.

wow, i guess i can work for some then.sorry he died. i think it really depends on the person, cause some people are mature for their age, but for the majority i dont think it does. i have a friend who falls in love with every guy she dates after a day and swares its true love, and shes 16 now and still believes its love. which i think is wrong, but its my personal opinion, i just think some people dont know how it feels to be in love, they just think its when you really like someone, so they think ther're in love all the time. i think the cutoff age is around 15 otherwise they dont understand what ther're feeling and it doesnt end well

^^Like others have said, I do believe it can work out, but it does take a lot of work and even more maturity.
I started going out with my boyfriend two years ago, and we are still together... and I've never felt the need to chase after anyone else, and neither has he. I guess the fact that we were inseparable for 4 years before that helped a lot!
I generally find that people my age and younger fall in love with a lot of guys, and confuse the big "L" with teen crushes or fleeting attractions. I guess that it's something that you just learn... how to be in love...?
I'm really sorry he died, your friend must be in pieces Sad

Someone in my school has been going out with her boyfriend since grade 5. She is going into Grade 9 this year. I don't know if it will last, but it has a good chance of it. They are totally supportive of one another.

I'm 13. I've been in 2 "serious" relationships.
one was a relationship with another girl. that ended, and now I'm in a 7 month relationship with a really nice guy. I know it won't last through high school, but for right now it is fun. We have made out, but nothing more than that. That's all I have to say on this.

i think middle school romance is annoying sometimes. y'know when it gets to the point that they're making out and literally secksing it's annoying. especially when they're like twelve year olds.

it's cool about your friend. i guess love does exist sometimes.

Obviously making out that much and having sex isn't appropriate for 12 year olds. I don't think it's appropriate for people my age. (The sex part, but if they want to make our they can do it in private.)

I hate people who make out in public and stuff. It's like please do that in private.
My neighbor and her boyfriend do that. They're only a fifteen and there are little kids next door. It's very inappropriate.

at he beggining of 6th grade i thought that relationships could actually work but now i realize its just bull crap. theres no way they work. especcialy with peer pressure n stuff.. "are you gonna kiss _____ at the movie?" " i think ____ likes you" all that crap is just stupid. i wish those other stupid middle schoolers would mature and act thier age.

^The thing is, they are acting their age. That's just what the majority of people that age act like.

No. I hate it when girls or boys are like I love You so much and i would kill myself if something happened to you, when they're only 12 or 13. Im always wondering if they actually think their relationship is going to work out. I, personally, have never heard of adults saying they were middle school sweethearts. I hate when kids my age are talking about how much they want to fuck a guy they know. i think thats stupid and that they are too young.

Hang on, thats a bit of generalization.

Not all middle-school romances end up with everyone wanting to fuck a guy they know.
Sometimes it's a genuine, I love you and I dont care what happens I will be with you forever.
And I know of a couple that were high school sweethearts and ended up marrying, so it isn't impossible.

Sure, hormones may be racing at this time, but it doesn't mean the whole romance thing is about sex.

^I agree.

Teens are always going to say soppy things like "I'll love you forever" to their boyfriend or girlfriend. And hey, there's a good chance it won't last forever. But it's a learning curve. They're going to deal, heal and move on.
And it's not as if adults are exempt from this either.

It can work out, but honestly your changing so much, like i'm almost a completely different person now starting high school then when i was starting middle school, except that I'm still really weird.

But also in my experience and what I've seen, almost everyone is so freaking over dramatic in middle and high school, And theres just so many things that complicate every realationship you have, so if you can work through it fine, if not then you weren't really made for each other.

But what I really hate is like you get so obsessed easily with someone and its easy to do stupid things. So i hpnestly don't think they are that great, your under alot of pressure and you don't know what to think then you get dragged into things you don't want to happen and ussually they don't last

But that's like any relationship - it doesn't matter if you're 14 or 94, or any other age - there are always going to be factors that are going to complicate the relationship. It doesn't stop after you leave high school.

exactly, and I completely agree, but most of these problems aren't the easist to handle ever, but I think that just because of the age, like its harder to handle cause your mind is still changing so, if your mature it would be ok but if your immature, and like maturity will always be a factore, cause there are 45 year olds who are so immature and "never grew up"

its a responsibilty (and call me a hypocrit or whatever cause I just graduated middle school abotu 2 months ago) and its stressfull, like for me, I had one boyfreind who just made life really hard for me, he was always lieing to me, always telling me things to get me to pity him and he was always trying to get me in bed with him, he was older then me and after a while it just got to be so much that I wasn't at all happy, I didn't even really like him, I was so tired, etc. so finally I said fuck it, broke up with him and I felt so much better. Now he's still causing me problems to this day, but he did get me to do things I didn't want to do, but did because he talked me into it, or he would tell me so many sob storries I felt cornered, etc.

But he was when we were dating 17 (I know I'm still kicking myself for ever agreeing to go out with him) and I was 13-14. he acted like a crybaby, you looked at him wrong and he;d burst into tears. So in all honest it depends on the people in the relationship and thier maturity levels, and it should be a health realationship

I think its all what you make it really. It could get serious but it depends on how serious the people in the realtionship are about it.

There is nothing wrong with feeling affection for someone and "dating" them, as long as laws are followed.

The "age is a number, it's maturity that matters" argument is nearly invalid to me now, because I KNOW that the number of young people that think they're mature enough for certain things is bigger than the number of young people who actually are.

I guess it depends on the couple itself. If both people are mature enough they could do the whole "Adult" relationship stuff. I mean Im 13 and Im going out with my 15 year old best friend. Yeah we do the whole I Love You stuff but it doesnt mean were going to be together forever it just means we love each other you know? I dont think age matters for you to have a proper relationship unless your like under 12 cos at that age your just doing the whole kissing on the cheek Dance
