Do you think teenagers can fall in love? Or is it just infatuation?

This is a school project for philosophy and ethics. If you could answer these it would help me greatly :D





What do you think makes a good relationship work?





What would you do if your boyfriend or girlfriend wanted you to stop seeing your friends or doing a hobby so you could spend more time with them?





What do you think is the best way to brake up with someone?





Do you think teenagers can fall in love? Or is it just infatuation?


I would ask my family but they're all out!Do you think teenagers can fall in love? Or is it just infatuation?
A good relationship needs trust, respect and love. If one of these are missing, then it's just not going to work out in the long run. Another thing would be to have a lot of things in common. After all, how will a relationship work if you constantly disagree with what your partner likes?





If my boyfriend said that to me I would kindly let my friends know that I'm not going to be able to see them as much as I have been... I'd think of it as a 'getaway' with him. :) And with a hobby, that wouldn't really bother me either. But I'd encourage him to participate in my hobby if it was something practical like Tennis so that we could both enjoy the hobby together!





The best way to break up with someone... hmmmm... probably just telling them straightforward that you no longer feel the love that you did in the past. I'm not too sure with this question to be honest.





Yes, teenagers can DEFINITELY fall in love! I have been with my boyfriend since I was 16 and trust me, if you just maintain the relationship properly and act maturely then it can really go a long way! Some teenager relationships I would consider just an infatuation, mainly because the individual isn't mature enough, wants a relationship to show off about it or just wants a partner for sex.Do you think teenagers can fall in love?

A good relationship starts with looks, you have to be attractive to your partner. Second they not only have to be your lover but your friend b/c after the intimacy is gone all you have is the friendship. Third there has to be trust on both sides and honesty. With out those two it is doomed to fail.





I had this problem with my boyfriend where he wanted to hang out with his buds more than me at one point. I told him that he doesn't have to lose his friends just he has to put for that extra effort for me otherwise it was over.





Definitely in person. Nothing says rude or immature like a text, voice-mail, phone call or email.





Yes I do think teens can fall in love but, when you get older and you start to mature, you see so much more in a relationship and feel more passion. That is why most adults don't see teen love as real. Just because a relationship may only last a month doesn't mean you didn't love them. It just wasn't a deep love.
There are a number of things that make a good relationship, but the most important ones are honesty, communication, unconditional love, and loyalty.





Normally when you first start dating someone you usually do that anyhow, sometimes without noticing! However if it wasn't something done naturally, I would simply explain to them that our worlds shouldn't just be about our relationship, and how space and time apart could be a good thing for the relationship.





There's really no best way of broking up with someone! However if you want to be rude about it I guess to stop talking to that person all together.





Yes teenagers can fall in love, that's what we call ';puppy love';
What do you think makes a good relationship work? Compromise.





What would you do if your boyfriend or girlfriend wanted you to stop seeing your friends or doing a hobby so you could spend more time with them? Tell her no, I yam what I yam.





What do you think is the best way to brake up with someone? Honestly, politely, and in a way that leaves no question as to whether or not you mean it.





Do you think teenagers can fall in love? Or is it just infatuation? They can, but often have trouble identifying it as such. It's best to wait and let things develop, if you're actually in love it will last into adulthood.
Hope this helps!





I think a good relationships work when some one is loyal some one you can trust with anything, someone who is always there by your side! plus more





i say that you need both time with friends and boyfriend or girlfriend. you need that space as well if yous are up eachothers *** you get frustrated and stuff. so space is a good thing.





thats hard depends on the situation





i think that if your with some one you really care about and been together for a long time since you were teens then yeah... but now days thats hard to say look at the young ones they say there in love when they dontknow what it is... you know when you love someone
A great relationship works hen both people are pulling their weight, and communicate with each other.





I would seriously consider if I would want to even be in a relationship with someone who doesn't like what I do, or my friends. (Personally, If it as between me, and my music, music would always win. Fortunately, there are girls in band)





The best way to brake up with someone is in person. Notice, i said best, not easiest.





Love has no age, but most of the time, teenagers undergo infatuation, and think it is love.
I think what makes a good relationship work IS (keep in mind that I'm 17 and have never been in a relationship)... well, honesty and loyalty I guess.


Basically I just think that yes, it is possible for teenagers to fall in love but it'd be pretty rare! Because there's too much lust and immaturity for teenagers to properly respect each other and themselves for that matter! Plus falling in love I imagine would take a fair while and we've got the attention span of a gold fish.
it depends, some people are highschool sweet hearts which lead to marriage. i guess it all depends on how fast they mature cuz that plays a big role in commitment and relationship
Of course teenagers can fall in love.


A lot of times they're just infatuated, but the same is true for adults.
I don't see why a teenager can't fall in love, its something that just happens and you don't know why. Its not something that you decide to do, you have no control over it no matter how old you are. A teenager is more likely to just be infatuated because of the physiological changes that are happening, but it doesn't make those feelings any less valid. You can't describe what love is, or what makes you love some people, no matter whether you should or not, and I'm sure that it is different for everyone. Its only an emotion, so most people are capable of it.


A lot of hard work makes a relationship work. Love is definitely not all you need! Patience, understanding and respect are important. Just because you love someone does not mean that you will agree with them all the time, they can drive you mad, and make you want to scream. Making sacrifices and compromises are all a part of it, and there will always be things that you will have to give up to make the relationship work, but as long as you keep a sensible balance I wouldn't give up any part of your life. Its what makes you who you are and that's why the person loves you.


There is no easy way to break up with someone, its always going to suck for at least one of you. It really doesn't matter whether you are honest about the reason for wanting to end the relationship or not. It hurts knowing that the person you want to be with doesn't want to be with you.
