What are your opinions of high school relationships? Will it last or will it fail?

Answer 1

it really cant be told, some people marry their high school girl,

but most relationships get dragged in the woods and shot fast, little kid love dont really mean too much

Answer 2

I think students are a lot smarter than when I was in High School especially the girls, they all want better educations. Just for instance I graduated with a class of 110 which 26 were either pregnant or had a baby for graduation. Only 16 went to college, 44 went to work in the Chrysler plant 11 went in the military and the rest just stayed at home and worked locally. If your talking about marriage, yes I know some that are still married straight from High School. Guess it has as much of a chance as anything, after all the divorce rate for this country is 67% that's not good.

Answer 3

From my own experience, almost all romantic high school relationships end with a breakup. It's extremely rare for someone to end up marrying a high school sweetheart. I dated a girl in college who was naive in high school. She thought she would marry her high school boyfriend so they slept together many times and she regretted it. He ended up being a possessive mess of a person, and it took her a while to realize it. You are better off waiting until you are more mature and have had more life experiences before getting very serious in a relationship.

Answer 4

They mostly fail because people change a lot at that kind of age, madly in love one minute then can't stand each other the next. The odd one or two may survive but usually with a break at some point.

Answer 5

i think there is maybe one or two couples that dated when i was in high school that got married remember im 21 years old i guess we will see how they end up... i think most of them fail because the couple both has not had much experience with other people so they think that they are missing out but they are really not

Answer 6

HIgh school realtionships often do not last for a number of reasons.

First of all, most high school students are young and inexperienced. They don't really know what they are looking for or what kind of person will be compatible with them. They are interested in people who are "cute," who are "popular," and who are "funny" without any thought to whether or not you have common morals/values/goals/aspirations.

Secondly, most high schoolers aren't looking for serious relationships. Most are just looking for someone to hang out with, someone to take to movies, someone to talk on the phone with, someone to go to prom with. They enjoy the companionship, so much sometimes that it doesn't even really matter WHO they're with, as long as its SOMEone.

Thirdly, high school students often do not have very much life experience. They are still in the silly, giggly phase where they get way too caught up in gossip, rumors, and who's-with-who instead of focusing on the things that are important. Often they are immature, and argue about silly, immature things, and try to create drama in order to make their lives more interesting.

Most high schoolers also have a hard time communicating honestly. Puberty is a tough time of life, and it often causes incredible amounts of self-consciousness and insecurity. Many people put on a certain "face" when they are at school or out on a date, and it usually doesn't take long for a significant other to figure out that's not what you're really like. People in high school sometimes feel the need to lie and exaggerate to their partners in order to look good, and that's not healthy for a relationship, either.

Parents also play a role in dating in high school. When one set of parents has stricter rules than the other set, it can cause conflict. Because you're still living at home, you have to follow your parents' rules, and if your parents don't like your significant other, it can cause MAJOR problems.

Another reason is that after high school, many people grow apart. As people go off to separate colleges or jobs in separate cities, it is hard to keep in touch and even harder to keep up a relationship -- in college or in the workplace, there are so many new people that you are meeting that the temptation is very high to start a new relationship without really giving closure to the high school fling.

I'm not saying that it CAN'T work out... I know some people who married their high school sweethearts. But it is rare.

Answer 7

I think that they are retarted. Alot in highschool people are just dating each other because they think one another is "hott" But there are a few rare times when highschool relationships work and they end up getting married. I always think that is cute when that happens but over all alot of them are just not going to work out. (guy thought) OMg let me ask this girl out omg she said yes...omg she is the only one who said yes and I really dont like her much..why am I with her...she really likes me...I dont like her....but she is really hott...I dont want to be alone...everyone will think I am a loser....if I dont have a girlfriend....just crap like that you know?

Answer 8

Its all how you both make it.If you want it to last then by all means it will.I met my fiance when I was in the 10th grade.We now have a son and will be getting married next summer!

Answer 9

It depends on the couple and if they can grow together or grow apart. My parents were high school sweethearts and and they were together for 48 years until my dad died.

Answer 10

it canlast but its hard and unlikely. like me and my boyfriend are high school sweet hearts and we r still together and even in different towns oh and we r having a baby and he is asking me to marry him for x-mas we r sitll togehter and deeply in love so its not impossible if u really truly love them.
