Amazed.

I am so amazed at people these days. Lets talk about the magic word, Love. Love is something shared amongst people who would "emotionaly" die if they did not converse with their signifigant other. Like in mariage for instance, thats love, not just tip of the iceberg.

It bugs me so much when I hear people and they talk about love and it's

I agree with you about the "love when you've only known them a short while" thing. Hell, my user name is based off of it. Too many friends crying to me about too many boys (who they knew a month or so) that they "love more than anything" breaking up with them.
But it does seem like you are throwing all pre-college relationships into this group. And that's not correct. I guess i'll use me as an example:
My boyfriend and I were great friends for over a year before we decided to get together. It wasn't a "see each other all the time decided to try it because i think he's cute" thing either. He lives a 30 minute drive away in a different county of Ohio. We now have been together a little over 11 months. I do love him. It's not a cry for attention or that i need someone in my life to make me feel good. If i just needed that, i have a ton of other people i could go to. But i don't. We've broken up twice and are still together now.
My love for him is completely unconditional. And it's one of the only things i'd fight til my dying day for.
I could write a list of a million things about him that i love. But i don't love him because he's nice or anything like that i could list. I love him because i love him.

So...
In general, "love" is thrown around too easily in teenage relationships. But it's not always that case.

11 Months is a long time. In this entry I was specificly pointing out the group of people who have been in a relationship and are "in love" with the other person. I don't blame someone for living in the moment at all because it's fun but it's too hard to get caught up in it.

I'm sorry if I offended you on this one. I just felt it was time to start righting more article type stuff :)
