Your first love

[Derscon]

You and every other fifteen year old. You'll grow out of the emo self hate phase in a year or two.

Or become like me, all depressed and lonely. Sometimes that phase just never, ever, ever.....EVER passes.

Then you should probably either check to see if there's a chemical imbalance in your head, or grow up.

[Slaytesics]

hrm, probably in the past few weeks (and not really love, more strong affection, give it a few months, let's see what happens)

[The Drone Empire]

When I was 8 me and this kid.. er.. Brandon Turraro had play dates and such. I had a crush on him.

My first true love was in 8th Grade, Caleb somthing.. hehe.. the only reason I remember Brandon is because hes in my college..

Nah. You just figure out after a while life sucks. Growing up only changes your views. But either way, it still sucks.

My hand.

[Mahaj]

uh... age 14...

didn't turn out good.

[RandomGuyNation]

I think I was...11. I was in love with her, then we lost touch, and I fell in love with a different girl named Alice. She rejected me, which broke my heart, but fortunately, my original love and I reconnected, and now I love her again.

I think that's what would have happened between me and my first love Kylie, had I seen her alive again.

Funny...I used to like (Or was it really love? I couldn't tell) a girl named Kylie. As with Alice, she rejected me.

[Alexlantis]

My hand.

Well, at least you're honest...

Didn't go so hot, we hate each other now :/

May I ask, why?

[New East Ireland]

It was 1985. Me and the arcade games down at the candy shop had a steady relationship; we saw each other often, and had moved into the touching phase, when I happened to notice a beauty across the road; that's right, the Nintendo Entertainment System. Oh boy, what fire. What flame. I followed that one through like a fox on a hunt.

Sadly, I didn't have enough money to satisfy her needs, so she left me for some rich kid named Timmy.

I do not understand what love is, for i have no idea how to define it.

Love is a dopamine-induced stimulation of the right ventral tegmental area and right caudate nucleus.

For hopefully the last time, "brain activation" is not anything close to "this is what this is". In fact, it's not even "stimulation" or "activation" when you're looking at such data, and such titles are misnomers. Take a neuroscience class. Profit.

My first love... well, the first individual I ever went out with was when I was twelve. It was just childish nonsense, nothing even close to serious. I thought that's what love was, but it wasn't. My first love would have been... when I was fourteen, I guess, or fifteen. I don't remember it very well at all, or at least not my part, but I remember her. Beautiful. Intelligent. Aloof. Wild. But when she was happy, she'd be sure to let you know, and when she was happy to be with you, she wouldn't leave, and wouldn't let you either. I don't remember everything that happened, because that sort of cognitive dissonance I had at the time I guess just couldn't be handled, but I remember how I felt when she'd had me pinned. How she smelled.

I don't remember hearing about her death, either. I had to be told again, years later, but it apparently wasn't easy. I do still think about her, think about just how important she might have been to who I am now.

[Heaven Hieghts]

I think I've thought I was in love, but I really wasn't. So, I've never really been in love, if we're speaking about people. I've been in love with lots of other things. But never really a person.

I'm kind of lonely though.

Oh? You have access to a computer, no? You get enough to eat, no? You have a roof over your head most days, no? Your life doesn't suck. You're just emo. Don't dig a hole for yourself if you don't have to.

Damn. I'm sorry, dude. Really sincerely sorry, like the kind of sorry that can't go over the internet.

Hope life's going well for you.

May I ask, why?

This other kid also liked her and told her I was cheating on her. She responds by nailing me in the you know whats. After this occurs, she leaves and her new "boyfriend" turns up and tells me that he told her I was cheating on her. So I punched him, broke his nose and got a good 'ol 10 day suspension for it. Come to find out that now he's been telling her that I'm talking shit about her family. Now she hates me even more (keep in mind I haven't actually done any of this). So yeah, that's the condensed version.

[Heaven Hieghts]

My hand.

Nothing better than a little self-lovin'.

Oh, it is. It's been well over a decade since, and my romantic life is quite healthy indeed. I did have a little bit of a breakdown when I realized that a potentially very important chunk of my autobiographical memory was blank, but I've since learned to not worry about it. Thank you for your consideration.

For starters.
1. It isn't mine. Its my stepmom's that I almost have to beg to use each time.
2. If you consider eating the bare minimum, then yes.
3. More like a temporary roof. Switch houses between parents very often. In fact, for a while, I was homeless.
It doesn't matter if you have enough to eat and a roof over your head. Life STILL sucks. People especially.

Yeah, that's the life of a 15 year old.

Seriously though, don't worry about it. You have your whole life to date and have fun. Just relax and do your own thing because you enjoy it. Spend your teenage years trying new things and developing into an interesting adult.

Also, nothing turns people off like desperation. So just go about your life, hang out with your friends, do activities you enjoy. If they're social activities you might meet someone interesting who you hit it off with, but if your goal is primarily to have fun and enjoy yourself (or learn something new) then it won't matter if you do meet someone special or not.

I was nineteen years of age (two years ago) when I met my true love, a girl named Sarah. We have been together for two years, and we are very happy.

1. Still owned by the family
2. "bare minimum?"
3. There we go. This is a legitimate reason to think life sucks.

But there are literally hundreds of millions of people worse off than you who live not just neutral, but happy lives. At least you've got some scars to back up your cynicism, though.

dude, quit bitchin. My pparents nevver got married,I have to switch homs too.
My computer, yea I had to get a job and pay for that myself.
The food I eat, I choose to eat a little as to lose weight, you sound like you choose to eat a little too.
And that homeless bullshit, when I was age 9-12 I had to live in a trailer in the middle of the woods with my dad because somebody stole his identity. My dog froze to death and we ate scrapes every night.
Notice how we have the same situation, only difference is I man'd up and learned to live with it.I you should quit bitchin and learn to roll with the punchs. That's just my advice

[Maurepas]

I don't think I've ever fell in love, I've had alot of crushes though.
