How old are you? Cause I don't know how young you're talkinglol...Well...I'm 16, and a couple years ago, if u had asked me that question..I would have probably said "yes" because,the majority of 13/14 year olds use the word too lightly, and start saying "I Love You" like..3/4 days after starting to go out...and obviously, that ain't love. Now..the boy I'm with, (he's 18), we've been together since January, I'm not 100% sure if it's love i'm feeling for him, because mydefinition of love (somewhere below lol) may not be everyone's idea of right, therefore not everyone may think it's love i'm feeling.However, I do know that the way I feel about him...I ain't never felt like this about any boyfriend..ever lol. I don't really think you're too young to be in love if you can give a definition for love, and know that you feel it, and not just saying it to keep your other half happy. My idea of love...although it may not be the definition (if there is even a definition for love), is constantly thinking about them, always wanting to be near them and with them, and being able to say you can see yourself spending the rest of your life with that person, lol people are most likely to say my idea's wrong, but I've got really strong positive feelings for my boyfriend and I don't feel like this about anyone else, and never have had these feelings before.
LOL look how you got me acting all soppy on BN

Lol...yeh I know what you mean. With lust...that's mainly like...thinking about the intimacy all the time...touching, kissing...and all that, but when you start missing and thinking about conversations you've had with him, and other things that don't involve the intimate parts...that's when (I think) love..may be starting to play a part. If it's only the touching etc that you think about when it comes to him, then it may be lust, but the other things you mentioned that you miss when you're not with him, like the things he does to annoy you lol, I don't think it's lust you're feeling. I could be wrong, but in my opinion, I think it's may be more than lust, not saying it's definitely love lol, but more than lust.

lol wanna place a bet how long you'll last?
nah..i'm messin. At the age you are, and the age he is, you're more likely to have a more meaningful relationship, and a longlasting one, cause both of you are soon to be adults, so you should have learnt by now how to deal with situations more maturely, than if you were a 13 and a 14 year old arguing because "he was chattin to a next girl" lol or some next minor thing or other.

I think that sum1 young can be in love but i think it depnds on how much experience you have had in relationships. If you haven't had much experience then you won't really know the difference between love and lust.

[align=center]i am 15 yrs old & me knoz dat i ave never been in luv...maybe infatuated but never in love. seriously i dont even kno d meanin of d word some saydat love is the most amazin feelin u can feel dats how i kno i aint been in love coz i aint eva felt a man was my world b4. [/align]
[align=center]in my opinion...young ppl i.e. peepz unda 16 r not 2 young 2 b in love but r ususally infatuated rather than in love. they may fink dat they are in love but there are infact infatuated which is a pretty strong feelinand may lead someone 2 believe that they are in love.[/align]
[align=center][/align]
[align=center]infatuation: is passion, strong desire, obsession..but not love[/align]

Its been a long time but i am back,
now i can seethat this thread aint been looked at for a good few months now but i was scrolling through and i am seeing some of the replies from younger people. all i can say is the younger generation are growin up 2 quick, a 13 year old talkin about i love him.. etc it is mad. what younger people need to understand is that they have got the whole of there life ahead of them, give it a few years and i gaurentee that they will not be saying the same about the boy/girl they are talking about right. people growing up ahead of their time it is 2 muchconfused2confused2confused2confused2confused2

i've been with my boyfriend for a lil over 2 years, i'm 17, he's going to be 17 in a few days........
up until recently i've always been adament(sp?!) that i love him....but in recent months i wonder...:
do i just THINK i love him because i've been with him for so long from such a young age and i've got so comfortable that i dont know any different....?!
am i just scared of starting afresh with someone new...?!
so many questions just keep popping into my head and i'm really confused.......if it IS love, would i be asking myself these questions?!
sometimes i think i MUST love him because we've been through a LOT......
i dont think i'm too young to be in love as such, but i think that there are so many things going on in ur life at this age that it can be extremely confusing nad even harmful..but yes i think it's possible to love someone from young.

Too young for "grown-folk love"? Yes. The thing is that at that age you might have an idea of what love is, but not a good understanding yet. That sort of thing takes time, once you get older, you'll have a better concept and understanding of love, especially the signs and actions of when someone loves you back. An important thing about love in essence is that it is returned back and forth over many times, it never travels in a direction that it won't be return, that is if it is mirrored by someone else. Like many things, lovematures but is still ageless.
