This is the first taping of my true feelings. We are talking about relationships. Let's see first base - Friendship and holding hands. Second base - hugging and kissing. The rest of the bases have not been discovered yet by these teens. Hopefully they will keep it that way for a while.
Do we really know what love is?
The movie "Twilight" looked like love and romance. The way he looked at her was love. The way he demonstrated self-control and sacrificed his feelings for hers was a great example of love according to these teens.
Why do most teens feel like they always have to have a boyfriend or girlfriend?
Do you really feel like a nobody if you are not in a relationship? Do you feel like you always have to be in a relationship to fit in?
I think the most interesting question raised was:
How weird would it be to go all the way with a person and not spend the rest of your life with them?
Wow! This opened up a lot of questions left to be answered. What are your thoughts?
