Love. Or Don't.
64I want to share with you a short little writing I wrote one morning. This was written soon after one of my close friends called me at four o'clock in the morning telling me that her and her boyfriend broke up. Her boyfriend texted me a few seconds later saying "I need your advice". So I technically wrote this for her boyfriend, who I am close with as well, and her in all. It talks about love and how some teenagers don't know what they want or how to come about something that they want. It also says how some people love for the wrong reasons and how to keep a relationship real. Hope you enjoy. :) Any feedback would be great.
"When you find someone who you like, hold on and never let them go. Tell
them the truth and think the world of them, compliment them and pour
your heart out to them. Stick up for them, believe in them and comfort
them. Protect them with everything in you. Testing them makes them prove
to you they love you, some people do it on purpose and some people do
it without realizing. Just realize when you get caught up in something
that might be someone's final decision later. You have to think that
you're the shit or you will only look weak and come off as unloving,
even if you're not.
Either do these things or don't love at all. You could just be along for
the ride without any emotion. A ticking time bomb ready to explode, but
also the safest if you know you are going to get hurt sometime soon.
Loving puts you at risk of getting hurt but being along for the ride
gets you attached and rips you apart so either way, you're fucked.
Don't be in a relationship just to say you are in one, love with your
whole heart or don't do anything at all. The same thing with life: give
everything your best shot or be lazy and have an uneventful life. And
yes one is more exciting and fulfilling than the other. It is your
choice to decide which one is right for you and find someone who thinks
the same.
Love is tricky but it can also be the most exciting time of your life.
So love who treats you right and never let go because love can be a
death trap and your whole world may come crashing down... ONLY if you
will it."

Young love usually do not comprehend what a "relationship" is really about. They are feelings oriented and as you mentioned in the hub and Mentalist stated, do not yet understand all that true love entails.
There is no place for selfishness in love or in friendship. Knowing this and knowing who true friends in life are go a long way to adding stability in one's life, when the world is teetering on instability. It seems you are a good friend, supporting those you hold close. Very good!!
I think love is important of course but in a relationship one should look for a partner not just a lover. When you are a teenager as revLady wrote, it is hard to fully understand the meaning of a relationship. Teenagers hardly understand themselves at times, nevermind other people.
I would not struggle too much with concepts such as love at an early age. Just be kind, understanding, compassionate and have fun! Do not stress over relationships. As a teenager (I think) relationships are more important in the sense that you learn about others and yourself. Ride the wave :)
Everything about your hub is very true!! Relationship must be whole-hearted and there are no if&but about it!! So, its Love Or Dont!!
Very good hub!!
I agree with the hub...there should be nothing false in a caring and loving relationship...mutual communication, respect and trust are keys...thanks
In a true love relationship, our choice of whom to love must depend initially on our knowledge of self and knowledge of the other. The rest follows because the start is on the right path of this tricky road. Good advice!
Thanks for all the comments! I love hearing different opinions. :)
Love is Trust,nothing else.
nicely written voted up....
I agree that at the young age, they do not really comprehend the relationship terms; they are based on feeling-oriented and emotional attachment. Mutual trust is essential in ensuring the success of relationship, and learning to let it go.I think if the relationship have more space and freedom, with love, respect and trust;the two of them will happily together.
Gret hub. Well done.
My husband and I were told by our families that it would never last , too young, too different in our upbringings etc., but 42 years later we are still tolerating echothers´shortcomings because the love we feel is greater than all the little differences of opinion.
