Sometimes my friends on fb piss me off. They sometimes go off topic on the threads I really want seriously discussed., but that's not the only thing. I think you guys are better at discussion. Actually, only Annie annoys me.



Discuss, please.

Middle school? I just assume this because of what society tells me ;)
But really, I figure children "date" just to make themselves feel more mature or whatever so it's all just bullshit without any actual meaning (I find it absurdly adorable and stupid when I hear 5-10 year-olds talking about having "girlfriends" and whatnot). At least in middle school emotions and urges are driving you crazy, so why not date? I mean, you start liking people in new ways around that age-group... that's just my half-assed opinion.

I figure the term changes depending on the age, like kids from elementary school aren't really dating, they tend to not really have a clue about what the term means. It's just a girl they hang out with a lot and just "decided" to be a pair.

You should date in Middle School. You probably shouldn't fuck yet but you need at least to get some experience talking to girls so you can get used to things like infidelity, heartache and the thrill of falling for somebody again. All that drama. If you're inundated to it, then you'll fare better when you get to high school and college because you'll know how to flirt and you won't be so nervous or take things so seriously.

Remember: when you're dating, never start a relationship thinking that this is the girl with whom you'll spend the rest of your life. The progression goes something like "I like spending time with her" to "I could spend a long time with her" and finally "I want to spend the rest of my life with her."

Don't ever take love or dating too seriously until you've found someone and you're in a position to commit. It takes that much emotional stake out of the game and it's not meant to be serious when you're a teenager anyway, no matter how the drama plays out.

Be happy in the moment, don't let it get you too down if and when it doesn't last, and do NOT regret taking chances. Ever.

I've had to talk to a lot of insecure kids in various stages of relationships recently and this is basically the gist of everything I've told them.

That, and my sister's getting married soon and my brother has been precariously promiscuous, so relationships have been on my mind a lot lately.

Me, I'm holding out for a cute Arab girl. But not Jessie. She's got a new boyfriend now or something anyway. I don't care. She's a great friend but she's a shitty girlfriend.

Sorry, this is a lot of candid shit and probably some platitudes you've heard before. I'm just telling you what it is that leaves me content today.

date while you're young. i'd say you could start around middle school for dating, but obviously no hanky pank yet. masturbation is for finding out what you like during sex while you're young, not dating. dating when you're young is how you find out when you like in another person and what you'd like in a relationship.

also, throw everything you think you know about dating and relationships out the fucking window until you've actually been on a date/been in a relationship.

I guess I'm strange, I dated around in middle school and early high school, but essentially stopped in tenth grade because I lost interest. There really isn't much compatibility for me in north east georgia, too many morons, pregnant people, and people cracked out on oxycodone. But, halfway through my sophomore year in college I found someone with similar interests, level of intelligence, and laid back enough to really not sweat the bullshit. I'm still surprised at how fast we hooked up considering how rusty I was.

And here I am five months in.

WE BOTH LOVE TREES GUYS
FUCK YES

Hahaha, when I started highschool I didn't give the time of the day to any of the girls because I figured it would be a waste of my time.

I was too smart for my own good.

Date at a reasonable age, I figure around 15-17, get to know some people and get a feel for a relationship. Take it slow, because you're not ever ready for big decisions.

Whenever they feel like it? Its just that before 14-16 or so you probably arent really grasping the concept of a proper relationship yet.
  • #10

I think it also kinda depends on what you mean by "dating", personally I don't think having to have your parents chauffuer you around is a date, but hey that's my own personal opinion. I'm also not notorious for going on dates in the first place though.

But if we're talking about the "being with" kind of way, eeeeh 6th and 7th grade always seemed kinda young to me to start dating. I say 8th is a good time to start actually trying to be with someone, especially since you are more likely to have had sex ed by then. You should only start dating once you know all the horrible disease you can catch and all the awkward truths about the opposite sexes bodies.
  • #11

Completely depends on the person. For lot's of people "middle school" is a good time to start. But, I, as a seventeen year old girl, have never gone on a "date". I've never found the opposite sex as unbelievably interesting (I'd rather spend my time thinking about my novel, History class, my future etc). I'm just a serious minded person, and that's okay I think. I have many male friends, but always turn someone down if someone asks me out. I'm just not comfortable with it. People disgust me too much right now haha

Being in High School now, I'm going to say I think Middle school is the time to start real "dating" relationships. I say "dating" because the middle schoolers (and many of the high schoolers) I've been around who claim they are together actually just hold hands in the hallway and akwardly slobber in each other's mouths occasionally, while going on almost no actual dates. But that doesn't mean all grade school relationships are stupid and unrespectable. I know a few couples who are more mature about it all, and I wouldn't be surprised to see them still together after high school. So to sum that up, mature relationships and true love are possible but uncommon in grade school. I have no comment on college and after relationships because I won't experience them in any form for another two years.

Dont let it get to you where all just human. I my self am a hertless monster who cant stand pepole for to long. When I have a enough of them I say get the fuck out im tired of your company.

The gap between boy and girl's maturity in middle school is a bit to much so high school seemes to be about even for the dating to start. Any thing before high school is just being freinds.

I was about to say I don't date because I hate people
But then I realized I'd be all over dating if I could get girls

responding to the question, yeah middle school sounds about right.
Though there's never anything seriously serious until post secondary, I'm thinking.
  • #30

I don't really know if I'm qualified to talk about this kind of things since the only relationship I've had is this one and it's lasted about two years... So I don't really know the "average" kind of dating thing that people go through (the 3 month average, and such)...

But from my limited point of view, I'd say it's a case-by-case basis. Like, the general area I'd say the dating thing is worth pursuing at around high school--as that's when most people start to get some true grasp on what being in a relationship means. But I'd say it mostly depends on the original. Some could date early, and others... shouldn't do it at all for the sake of the rest.

In a way I don't see the point to dating if both parties involved understand that they'll break up. I'm not saying it's unlikely--most relationships don't last--but to have that disposition makes the whole pursuit seem pointless.

In another sense I kind of agree with what Jerk is saying--it's better to fall on your face and make mistakes when the consequences are less severe. Although, preferably not falling at all would be good.

Not falling at all would be good, but it's probably going to happen.

I dunno, personally I think people should start dating when they're (mostly) mentally mature. Yet, in the end, who are we to decide when people should start dating?

  • #39

Hmmm, my personal experiences tell me High School is around about the best time to start dating. I having many friends who are going strong now, a couple of years after starting dating in High School. They're happy, balanced, and just playing it week-by-week.
I started in High School and though that didn't go well, it certainly taught me plenty and we were both mature enough to be able to get over it quickly. I've seen younger, Middle School, relationships go weird because neither really know how to let go and move on.

  • #43

To be honest? I believe it's...aheh...

Parents should be able to gauge when they are ready and are mature enough emotionally and responsibly and in some cases some kids should not be allowed for a while due to emotional and maturity issues. Now of course this is completely the parents' decision as to whether or not they allow it.

However if I were to go for a bedrock minimum? ...Middle school...once again, with responsibility.

Also since when was it a scientific fact that teenagers 15 and under can't feel love? Honestly I wanna know if there is actual evidence for this, I hear it time and time again and yet I never have any proof anda;kdjf;akdjf sorry rambling and off topic. >_>
