I bealive teenage love is a real thing, but love is not a feeling or a longing for something. Love is something you do. It doesn't just happen. My music teacher explains love in this way:"Love is wholeheartedly being willing to help that person at anytime with anything no matter what the situation or sircumstance." "Its about being selfless." "Thinking of that person before your self completely."

I bealive what he says is true love. You don't have to listen to me thats just my opinion.

Yes I do. Personal experience. No happy ending though.

Eh, who said everyone has one? =)

Here's what I think. I believe that, no matter what your age, you are always as capable and willing to love as anyone. It is just as real, but it is not as important. Teenagers have taken the concept of love and turned it into a romance novel. They are naive and believe that the sappy love they read in books is what real love is like. Now some of us don't, but the majority do.

To me, love is not only feeling good and perfect with a person, but feeling those things without someone. If you can't be a complete person without someone, then when you are in a relationship, you'll be leaning off of them for your happiness and that will hurt you and them. Love is not about great romance or sweet stories, sappy love songs or great dates. Love is when someone is completely and utterly unselfish and willing to give their whole heart to somene else. Not expecting anything in return.

I am a teen. And this topic always makes me sad.

I think teens know and feel love more than anyone. A lot of people think that teens feel lust. A broken reconstruction of love. While this is true in a certain sense, it is also true that EVERYONE feels lust. I feel lust. But I know when there is a difference. When I look at The Guy, the first time I saw him, I knew that I loved him. There was something about him that made me smile. Of course, the fact that he already had a girlfriend crushed me. I didn't "want" him. I needed him. I still need him. There was a time when she wasn't with us. And I could believe that the laughter and the smiles were for me and only for me. 

So don't tell me I don't know what true love is. For me?

True love is being with the one who makes you smile, who writes you songs with his guitar, who holds your hand, and knows when you're sad. Sometimes though, the person you love the most, loves someone else.
