Ahhh... Teenage love aye Laughing

As some or all of you know I am going out with Ingrid. And even still, what I thought about teenage relationships before I went out with her and even to this second have not changed. I still hold the same views.

Ingrid and I share something with eachother that well, I guess it is a "bond" something that can not be explained. Adam and Shane would know what I mean (and those who have had girlfriends before) that attracts them to you and vica versa. And even though we have been together for nearlly two weeks, there is a definate "something" there for us to build a solid and fulfilling relationship with.

Is this relationship "love"? I don't believe it to be (Ingrid may think so), as I've said before, love is a process. But there is a certain thing between us to go on.

As I've said before in regards to Ingrid and I... "We'll see what happens". If we break up tomorrow, then so be it... If we are to go on for ages and whatever then so be it.

To me, Ingrid and I... it's like a friendship, but it is a different sort of relationship. Set on a "foundation". I see a lot of teenagers (particular year 8's and 9's) and their only words to them are "I love you" and just holding them and whatnot. And well, you need to have some other form of conversation and other common interest, other wise your relationship is screwed.

Well, I value Ingrid highly and every time I am not talking to her its bodgy (like right now, she's with Shane and the rest in Brisbane, while I'm here. bloody parents).

But yeah, I won't be changing who I am and what I'm about. Because my "Wilkinsness" is what "drew" her to me, so I won't change what drew her to me. Changing would be suicide.

So yeah, there you go.. and yes "me and Ingriddddddddddddd" Wink

That was a joy to read Wilkins, even though I still have my suspicions that the relationship is a ruse to get back at me for pushing the you and Ingird thing so much, you've got your head in the right place.

That's almost exactly how i view my current relationship and many others, its just a process, a different type of friendship. Whatever happens happens, I just hope its for the better.

Sorry man, I'm agreeing with you this time, you'll have to wait for someone else to be bitter and disagree with you Razz

That has absolutely nothing to do with using women. Its just how many younger people see a relationship. Just because they're young and think that they are in love, it doesn't actually mean that they are using them. Nor does it mean that they're just doing it to look cool. I remember back in the day when Debbie and I were going out, I thought it was love, to this very day I have no idea what to call it...but it certainly wasn't an image thing.

I would still like to say that I do know better, people mature a hell of a lot in two-three years, i'm not debating that. However, we dont completely change into different people. Our feelings and perceptions are moulded from our experiences. Just say you find yourself in love (Robbie), that is probably a completely different perception than what Wilkins may feel. My point is, we're still the same people as we were in the younger grades, we made conscious decisions and our feelings weren't any less than what they are now.

So.. in my opinion, its got nothing to do with using women. Also, they have a conscious decision to say no...

i agree with the idea of love being based on friendship. with my part autistic brain i have make a literal interpretation from pretty much any expression body-language into clear english, and for me a hug says ily, though every now and then i just try a person on to see if they fit.

so it's fair to say that i love most of my friends, and i express it. a relationship in my opinion should only ever be an expansion on friendship, obviously not confined to physical affection.

i've found in pretty much all of my 'relationships', for want of a more appropriate word, the foundation was a fairly strong friendship. that's why i didn't object when josh wanted to get to know whats-er-name (shutup, i'm out of the loop) better before he asked her out. frankly i thought it was a great idea and that people shouldn't even try a relationship without some sort of friendship.

edit: perceptions can also be formed by deduction. it's not as common as the other sort, but it's pretty obvious if think about things like gravity and radiant heat; you can soon work out that the closer you get to the source the worse it gets.
