I have been going out with my boyfriend since novemeber of the 8th grade. (2004) I am completely in love with him. Whenever someone asks me how long ive been going out with him and i say 2 and a half years alomst they are shocked and tell me i need to break up with him because weve been going out for too long and he is my first boyfriend.
I guess what i want to know is why to high school age kids say this? Why do they hook up with different guys and girls every weekend? I dont understand why or what this does for you. It surely does nothing for your self esteem and confidence. My friends tell me im "missing out"...missing out on what?!?!

I'm old enough to be your grandfather, but I'll try not to come across as one of them. Lots of us don't get into serious dating as early as you apparently would like to. I didn't have a serious girlfriend until I was 23, and I wound up marrying and later divorcing her. Reading your question I see an intelligent young woman. What do the boys see? Probably the same thing I see. A lot of them don't want intelligent girlfriends as much as they want available and willing girls. Trust me, that's not the best course for you. My problem was I didn't know how to approach the girls I really liked and ask them out. In other words, I was shy. Bet those guy friends of yours are not quite ready for you and you aren't quite ready for them. So here's the deal: Play the field. Go out with guys you like. When the right one comes along you and he will both know it, and remember that time is on your side. Those little 15 year olds are not to be envied at all. They are not old enough or ready for anything serious, and if they get into a serious relationship it is likely to wind up really hurting them. Good luck, and what you should do about it is be patient.

First of all the children at school aren't guidance councilors so their opinions wont make your life wonderful. But taking the advise is wise if they know something you don't know about him.
school is for making a comfortable life for you when you grow to be a woman. Dating is the process of finding someone to Begin a family and commitment. First depend on yourself and the guidance of your parents or school councilor to find your path to depend on yourself before depending on a boy that cant provide a good life for you and him. With out knowing what to do in life's problems creates more problems. Take your time and learn what true love really is FIRST.

Dont listen to your friends, when you guys are all done with high school and graduated they are gonna wish they had a great guy like yours. For some reason high school kids tend to be dumb and they never notice till they are out of that place and into the real world.

I'd say who ever told you to break up with him is stupid!
It's really nice that you two are really nice and steady. In fact, sometimes, high school sweethearts end up being life-long parters. When you feel you are ready [I'd say after being financially stable ], it'd be great for to two to settle down with each other.

I met my boyfriend when i was 16. now we are almost 24 years together. After 3 years you know if he is the right one. When you to grow up to adults, almost nothing can damage your relationship.

There's absolutely nothing wrong with that. Who cares what other people say, if you guys love each other then try your hardest to keep it going.

not missing out on anything, if you're happy and in love then they're the ones missing out. they're just going from guy to guy looking for what you have.
