I personally do not believe that true love is attainable in high school. Maybe a degree of it, but not the kind of love I'd see in a couple getting married for life. I've heard from "Love is caring about another more than yourself", but that can't be it, because I care about a lot of people more than myself. Easy when you're a selfless person.

I agree that you can't expect to obtain true love at such a young age.
You will, hopefully, grow a great deal mentally during the next decade of your life.
This means that you your emotionally needs and your value system will change a great deal in the next decade.
This means that it is extremely unlikely that a 'true love' now, will be a 'true love' in the future.
And, I suggest that a 'true love' is not likely anyway....as people never do stop changing and growing mentally/ideologically until they are dead.
That is why over 70% of relationships fail, and over 50% of marriages fail: people never stop changing their ideas and needs.
good luck.

You never attain true love...If you will think. Truly think...There is not a single person you can really count on when the chips are down. My husband and I were married for thirty five years. There was not another person in this world I would rather be with...even now when I am a thousand miles from him. Why separate ?
He is bi-polar, will not medicate and a mini monster in his own right. Because of this, we have lost everything including a farm we worked to own for twenty seven years. Our reputation is shot due to unpaid bills and deceit. And what's odd is, for him,I would have lived in a tent. I would have died for him...but I wouldn't commit suicide. Do I still love him ? Yes...I love a memory. True love attained ? Yes. Forever..no.

You should love yourself first and foremost. You should be the most important person in your life. If you love people more than you love yourself something is wrong. Before you can know what love is you will have to love yourself fully. It takes a long time to know yourself and love yourself, until then forget loving someone else. Being a selfless person says nothing about love.

I don't agree that true love is unattainable in high school, ever have a first love as a teenager? You never love that deeply, or give your heart so freely as that first time. I do agree that a high school love probably will not withstand the test of time, you're still trying to figure out who you are, and by the time you do, you may have nothing in common with your first love. True love to me is a romantic friendship, based on respect, trust, faith and loyalty. If it were true love, you wouldn't have to even ask how to maintain those things. You'd do them without thinking.

true love is hard to define, for it's different with everyone. love is so much more than caring about another more than yourself. it's about happiness and honesty. being best friends and feeling the happiest you've ever felt.
i'm in high school and i just experienced true love. but it is gone. so i'm not sure if it even exists sometimes.

my genuine love's call is liahna, she is appealing, form, smooth and does not advise to damage everyone. If she does she says sorry and makes up for it, she is warm as a guy would say and he or she performs a similar activity i do..... basketball, she is going problematical for the ball like i do and that i love observing her play. so i desire this has helped you out along with your genuine love and if you're in a nasty difficulty merely tell the fact and he will forgive you. solid success, take great thing about it and do not enable him wreck out. XOXOXO

the best deffinintion i can make is when you have a feeling in your gut that you want to live with her for many years. and if that girl you are feeling so good with feels the same then you just first start dating and take little steps from now on and if that relaionship continues until you are much older than you know shes the one you want to live with for your rest of your lifes

True love is GIVEN, not "attained..." or "obtained," for that matter...
Love is for giving and forgiving.

the best definition for true love is being loyal, trustworthy, and lovable. when you know that you really reached it is when you feel it in your heart.
