Do you believe teens can find their TRUE love?

Alot of teens who are dating now would say YES, because of course, the one theyre dating now is their so called "true love", but I feel that most teens dont really have enough experience to find their one true love. I mean, they find a guy, date him, marry him when their 18, have kids, hate each other, and divorce. It happens all the time, doesnt it?





I guess this question is mostly for adults, because I know a teen would disagree with me most (even though I am a teen!)

Do you believe teens can find their TRUE love?
I am 19 I have a a son who is two and I am married. I would say if they find their true Love most won't know what to do with it, won't know it is "love", or it won't be returned.





I think it depends on the person because people at 40 don't know what love looks like. I also think that it depends on the age of a teen and where their moral/values are.





I think it is happening more and more but maybe that has something to do with the fact that we choose to educate a 4th/5th grader about SEX! If you put a a spoon and pudding in front of a child and walk away you will have a mess it is common sense! For some reason people just don't get the concept of education with supervision.
Reply:yeah they can
Reply:I had my first date with the man I married on my 18th birthday. From the first time I saw him, he was a year older, I knew he was the one. We were married for 34 years before he passed away. So I can say yes to the question.
Reply:It has happened, but for the most part I'd say no. It's called lust and infatuation and most teenagers can't tell the difference between that and love.





It's a part of growing up though so whatever keeps them happy.
Reply:Yes, teens can find their one true love. Unfortunately, most times their inexperience prevents them from understanding what they are experiencing.





I met and fell in love with my "TRUE" love at 16. we were together for 4 years but then broke up. We had no contact for 25 years. I married her last July and have never been happier. My one big regret was letting tragic events break us and keep us apart all those years.
Reply:You are absolutely correct. They are marrying too young, as well as having babies too young. Thus never really get the opportunity to experience life and all the fun that life entails during one's youth.


Teen years are a time to get to know many. And not to take oneself too seriously. You sound much more mature than the normal teen. Thank your parents for their genes AND their moral values!
Reply:I believe that you are in a way right. And I am a teen. I think that there are exceptions. And yes what you are thinking is right, I am an exception I am so much in love and know for a fact that it will last. I think that teens believe that they are in love because it is their first time experiencing such a feeling and have the freedom to do so. The love I feel now could never end and i would compromise to keep it and sacrifice. It has a strong foundation in God and I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with him. I know you are thinking is that is what I say now but I do truly believe that I will feel this way forever. Please consider believing.
Reply:yes we think its true love and ends divorce with children not all do end that way but stay together because of children unhappy and fighting does age have more to do with a marriage longer we have asking that question for years
Reply:No, they haven't experienced love yet to find their "true" love. I'm 26 years old and I just found mine!
Reply:i was 16 when i met my husban 9 yrs and 2 kids later i love him more than ever. Im not saying we havent been ready to call it quits but love seemed to hold us together. You know if you really love someone if you can imagine your self in your 60's and still think of them the same. True love is hard to come by. Some times you find it young other times it takes a while dont be in a rush to move you relationship fast, kids are the last thing you need right now!
Reply:Actually I think that ONLY teens can find what you call true love.





The silly unearned devotion to each other that is teenage love is not possible when you are older and wiser. When you are older, you realize that even when someone else's well being means more to you than your own, that you aren't going to die if you are apart. You go into relationships with less faith that they are going to work out, and start looking for clues that it could work and you WORK on making good relationships work.





Don't worry, I've known some pretty happy people who aren't talking about the butterflies they get in their stomachs when their beloved is near. Love is real and love is great, but it only works like the storybooks if you are lucky enough to have an early love last a lifetime.

Reply:yep
Reply:I totally agree with you. I am in my late 20s and when i was a teenage, i thought i had found true love, and if taht guy didn't like me, i thought it was the end of the world!!! We just want to grow up so fast and experiment everything. WE forget to enjoy our lives and rush into things. I don't think anyone should get married until they are at least in their late 20s. We change so much, in 10 years you will be a different person with different goals in life.
Reply:Actually this brings up a point my teenage daughter and i discussed a few night ago. People tend to call what her and her boyfriend have puppy love, but I don't know about that, seems to me they love more fully and truly than a lot of adults, they aren't afraid to show their emotions and they have less stress to deal with. Adults deal with jobs, bills,kids, houses, usually kids don't have that interfering with the way they love. The way my daughter and her boyfriend feel about each other is the way a lot of adults should feel towards their partner and don't, so yes i think you can find true love at any age.
Reply:depends on the situation. in my religion we only do 'blind' dating and we start only when we are ready to get married. therefore many of us do find their 'true' love at 18/19.
Reply:no what a dump question
Reply:I know you said mostly adults, buy my parents met when they were 14, and they have been married for 26 years now. So yeah, I think that teens can find their true love.
Reply:teens can't fall in love. 4 one they're 2 young 2 even kno wat love is. and 4 2 ther's no such thing as love
Reply:sure anything is possible
Reply:actually yes, even though i am a teen, they could it's very possible,
Reply:yea i think they can!but they just dont know it!
Reply:yeah theres sum-1 out there 4 everybody
Reply:i would love to know the same thing.
Reply:You're right, just have fun and wait,become you're own person.get a job and be self supportive, love yourself for who you are, then find someone the same. Not some guy to bum off of you, someone who has there life together to, oddly enough when you're not looking that's when you'll find someone. Good luck and don't dwell on it.
Reply:You know i used to think just like you that it couldnt happen no way wat so ever and then it happened and now i know the truth so i guess you'll just have to wait till if your lucky it will happen
Reply:i believe anything is possible
Reply:I believe that in rare instances, teens CAN find their "true love" but it happens so few and far between that you normally only hear about the bad things, just like anything else in life. But I do know, from my past experience that I am a totally different person than I was at 16--18--even 25 than I am today, with VERY different goals for my life. It was those changes would never have worked with the guy I thought was MY "true love" back in high school. At the same time, my best friend growing up married at 16 and they have been married 20 years now and have 6 children together and still act like newlyweds. My opinion is, if you find a guy that you think is your "true love" then great...if he is that for you today, he will still be that 5-10 years from now, no need to rush into a marriage or have children with someone and end up divorced with kids, its not easy on anyone!
Reply:Look,


I don't usually talk to teens on the internet, (all the bad things I have been hearing about interaction between teens and adults) but I have to agree with you. Relax, you're gonna find "true love" many, many times in the course of your life. I gotta tell you that most of the love affairs I've experienced were "true love", painful, tearful, happy, exciting, etc.., but TRUE! At the time!!!
Reply:Sweetness, you are pretty smart for a young one. While it is true that a very few teens find true love they know it through and through. Those teens are extremely mature and often choose to wait for marriage. Most teens are not that mature but think they are. Those are the failed marriages. For with maturity and TRUE LOVE there is the element of PATIENCE %26amp; WISDOM.
Reply:yes i did I'm only 15
