(vent) not at all falling in love
Hello everyone , I am sorry if I put this in the wrong category , if I did, sorry.
I just want to talk about something I have been feeling recently, and I don't really know what to feel about it. It's about love. I am 16 now, will be 17 in a month, and I'm in my last year of high school. Many people have talked about love and falling in love, and getting into these romantic relationships, and having these crazy love experiences.
I personally have none to be fair the craziest thing i do is platonically just flirting with my friends thats literally, having fun and messing around the normal fun things but never in any romantic way , i dont think i have fallen in love with anyone except people who are fictional people other than that no one in my school ever got me gaga over them like really and i know you might say this is normal nothing to worry about but i feel like i am missing out in this important stage in my life , and like missing from the fun of being in love , all my friends or some of them at least has done something remarkable in terms of romance and i am here just not knowing why i am not in love , but i dont feel alone cause i have friends who are the same as me , but yeah i just i am not falling love at all
Thatss about it ahaha , litreally thats it thats what i wanted to say , if anyone relates do tell , but yeah i just feel like i am missing out in some crucial teenage experience but yeah its fine its not my greatest conern right now either way , but it sometimes hits me but yeah , its pretty funny tho , love i see so many people go crazy after it and like i wanna experience it too , but its all for ficitonal people thats even more crazy like i just read these webtoons and i am like litreally in love with this person and fall soo much in love with them and yeah its sad they arent real to be fair but like i know they are fictional tho so i am not like in some type of deep attachment with them , its just that they are more intresting then the people i meet , like they are people i like but like its like i cant attain them either way so why aim for them too , like idk i just dont know , emotions what a funny thing really
Either wayy byee and super sorry for this long rant too my bad just wanted to vent.
@iwishuwell Nope, you are not missing out on a crucial teenage experience, not enough of one to force it. It will come soon enough.
@helpfulAvocado7912
thankk you soo much , honestly looking back at it , even thought i wrote this yesterday i am disagreeing also with what i said , it is not a crucial part of my teenage life , love comes when it comes , cant force it or anything , but thank you again for commenting tho
@iwishuwell
It is this idea that it is somehow a teenage experience etc IMO that lead young people especially,
but others as well to try and believe each person they meet or even date are " The ONE" ...
this creates unrealistic expectations and many many situations of unhappy relationships ..... they told themselves it is LOVE and they do not want to be wrong ........

I definitely agree to what you say , like nowadays people fall in love easily and don't want to think that maybe the person they are with won't be their future partner , and even when the relationship becomes toxic they don't want to leave their partner cause they think they are really "the one" which is pretty toxic but its like that these days and its just sad , many teenagers also feel the need for having romance in their life , and if they don't , they don't feel popular enough or cool enough if they aren't dating , so much things attached with it , i really sit to think what environment are we letting our children grow into , but yeah it is what it is , hopefully it changes i am hoping for that , cause we need definelty a better environment for them to grow in and not feel there self worth is based on there dating status
@iwishuwell
Very well put. you have a good grasp of what i was thinking as well. The teens that have not had romantic drama are often the better ones to deal with relationships later in life.
