Hmm... Love is such a strange thing really. I love my friends, but I sincerly doubt that's what you've been talking about.
But what's the big deal? Honestly.
I'm a rather extreeme feminist sometimes, and this is one of them.
Okay, here's a senario. As far as my understanding goes, it's true, but my friend tends to exaggerate and make things up, so I doubt it's as severe as it sounds to me.
Everyday during mentor (Home Room), my friend, tells call her B, complains about this boy, A. Apparently (That makes me sound like a gossiper, doesn't it?) A comes to her Ballet class occasionally to watch and then talk to her when she takes a break. B is always complaining about him there because he looks at her butt when they bend over.
So anyway, lately, she's been talking to him on MSN a lot. Twice now, she's told him she likes him, and both times he's been too busy ignoring her to notice. (He's trying to go out with a girl he's never said two words to in RL, but who sits on his bus. He's only going after her because he thinks she's sexy) So, the other day, she told him again, this time he acctually noticed, she blocked him and now he's bugging her about why she likes him. B's been biting her nails all week because she told him. Thing is, she meant to. It's so confusing.
The thing that confuses me though, is that she talks about him as if she hates him, and then she goes and likes him. A went to school with me, he's a complete prick, and B's not Ms. Einstien either, but, for the love of God, they're THIRTEEN!
Sure, I guess I'm not against early love sort of thing, but this isn't love. It's more, "Oooo! Let's get a boy/girl to hang off to improve our social status!"
It's an odd thing. In modern society, I guess it'd be pretty hard to pinpoint love. Most relationships are merely for show.
I have a couple of unresolved issues with some of the 'popular' people at my school, why is unknown really. I think they're just annoyed at me because I'm not like them.
Anyway, last holidays, they started arguing with me Via MSN, and started saying, what they thought were insults. You know, stuff like, "You'll never get a boyfriend. What boy would want you?" and "Start eating better. (A little less acne maybe) At least then you might get our regects." That sort of thing. It was acctually quite funny. They were throwing all the things that would insult them at me, and I was laughing at them. Then they went into the usual, "OMG! You're a FREAK!" To which, the only real insult appropriate would be, "Yeah, but at least I have half a brain." Or the like.
Anyway, it got me thinking about Love today. Love for a friend, and love for more-then-a-friend.
I think, Love is being able to forgive, even when the deed was unforgiveable, that sort of thing.
I was reading a few of the posts at the beginning, and you seemed adament about love only applying to straight people.
Okay, so I'm not entirly comfortable with homosexuals, and I got really mad at my best friend when she acused me of being a lesibian and didn't talk to her for a weekm but I don't think that Love doesn't apply to homosexuals. Think about it, if they didn't love the other person, why would they risk being socially outcast, as many are?
I think I've ranted enough. I wanted to say more, but I need to move. My hands are shaking as I've had too much sugar.
Ta.

beautiful explanation, silva sun! and i do think getting involved with love so early is just a way to show off to everyone else, and not really taking it seriously. and also, i'm a true love believer, no matter how small of a chance it may be. Probably one in a thousand, but it still exists. yes, the real world is way crueler than the one we fantasize, but we'll never know if we would actually find true love. if we keep doubting it, then for sure true love will never exist in your life. oh, and yumi-chan, i don't think you should worry about getting a secret admirer or boyfriend at this age. i mean, we are of the same age, and i don't think i have either of them too. 14 is just WAY to early to start a relationship, and always give yourself time to find a good guy, not just anyone you think is cute, but one that really cares about you. finding someone that will care for you might take long, but if find someone now who treats you worse, then i think you would rather wait longer. but don't be too excited into finding someone, because they'll come to you when the time comes.

Bah, who are we to know if it's true love anyway?
And I think people worry about things like this because it *sighs* is expected of them. Poor saps, I wonder when they'll liberate themselves from those goddamned social boundaries.

uh... what you guys said. ^_^; i just turned 18 this january (i know, i know. i'm old. -_-) and i never had a boyfriend. (i'm not complaining, though) yech! i don't even want to think about having one! *shudder* call me conservative or old-fashioned but i think 14 is too young to have a boyfriend. i mean, at that age, i'm still at the 'boys-are-yucky-i-don't-give-a-damn-about-them' stage of my life. (whew, what a long name for a stage. ) then again, we are from different cultures so... hehe. ;D

Hey, I agree with Fibby-san (I sound like a suck, don't I?)
Fourteen is too young. Far too young.
Then again, I don't intend to ever get a boyfriend (Though according to most people at my school, it's because one would never want me).
I'm going to be an old crone! I've already got the posture too! ^_^

of course 14 is way too young... your at a point in your life where you're still making decisions for your future and probably unsure of even where you're heading.

lol don't worry Silva.. it's really around my age where you should start looking for someone that can be 'the one' (especially since ave. marriage is at 23)... maybe even a year older when your out of high school. Cause at that part you know the guy isn't using you for social status or you aren't using him. -PS: my one girlfriend I had was way back in grade 6.. and that was just stupid

aww, fib-chan! i don't think there's anything wrong with not having a boyfriend yet! my sister is 18, and she's going to her grad party tomorrow without a partner. Well, i asked her if anyone asked her out, but she said no and she didn't care because she doesn't have to be desperate about things like this. When it comes, it comes.
I basically don't think love is a competition or something. it's not like it's a "i have a boyfriend already and i'm all cool, and you're not!!" type of thing. i cannot believe people actually compare each other's social status with this type of stuff.
