Ah, middle school. The time in a teenagers life where people start liking other people, and they start getting boyfriends and girlfriends. I think it's stupid to have a significant other at the young age of 13. It's quite stupid. I do have a boyfriend, but I don't do what a lot of my friends do. They say, "If he breaks up with me, MY LIFE IS OVER!" No, your life is not over. You're 13. Life goes on, and you move on with it! And when my friends say they "love" him or her, I just kind of say, "That's so sweet!" and move on. In my opinion, teenagers and even people in their 20's don't really understand what love is. I don't think they really grasp it. Yes, you do like him a lot, but you haven't shared experiences with him or her that really bond you together as one. Some people in my grade say, "We're going to be together forever!" Two weeks later, they break up! I say, "I told you so," and I move on with my life. I have a friend that wrote a life story about himself. He explains how he has had the not so greatest childhood. I can understand that. I didn't have the greatest either, but he explains how he loved a girl. He says that when hey broke up, he wanted to kill himself, and he tried multiple times. That is the stupidest thing I have ever heard in my entire life.
