Love is Real

I am responding to Stan’s blog post about the Reality of Love

My take on the whole love scenario is that it is completely made up. It is just a state of mind that your brain tricks itself into believing is real… At this age you are guaranteed this feeling of "Love" eventually you are going to feel it one way or another. At this stage in our lives relationships are not meant to be everlasting, at this age relationships are just for the fun of it, or at least in the beginning they are. That relationship is still for fun…but really kids are interested in making out…But never in your life will love ever be real, it is just a state of mind. So you might ask "Why even get into a relationship if you are just going to get your heart broken?"

I really do have to disagree with Stan’s statement that love is completely made up and that it is just a state of mind. That is really not true. Yes it is true that as teenagers, we are thought to believe that love does not exist until later on in our lives. At this age, love is not supposed to be so close at our reach, but in certain circumstances, we are blinded by love and it does happen.

Relationships that start off at an early age sometimes can go both ways. Sometimes the person that you are in a relationship with might be the love of your life who you will end up with the rest of your life, and sometimes, that relationship was just too young and was just made up to have fun. Either way, there is no deniable reason that love could have been there. That proves that love does exist even if it sometimes doesn’t work in our favor.

I love where Stan says that kids these days are only really interested in making out. To be honest, he does make a good point. I guess you can say that making out is a fun thing to do at this age, but it’s not the only thing that we have in mind. You never know, maybe kids really do want to find love this young and that is not an impossible thing to do. I know from experience. I love my boyfriend and that has nothing to do with the factor of making out. I have found love at a young age and I really don’t see it as a state of mind since I’m living and breathing it right now.

Love takes up many forms, but that it is not a reason to say that it is not inevitable at this age. Love is real and it only takes for you to find the love of your life to know that it does exist.
