When I said "feelings towards another human being" I OBVIOUSLY meant feelings of love or romance... OBVIOUSLY, seeing as this is what this topic is about. Sorry if I didn't make that clear enough but like I said, since this topic is about those particular feelings, I thought it'd be quite clear and quite easy to figure out that that is what I meant. I do sincerely apologize that I didn't not make that clear enough. Next time I will type out exactly what I mean, so no one gets confused on what I'm talking about.

Obviously teenagers can have feelings for friends and family. But any feelings of love are probably not real or not going to last.
Oh no, I understand. I thought that was what you meant, but the phrasing was slightly confusing, that's all. xD Don't worry about it.

And yes, your point is clear. I think 'generally' you might be correct, but I've seen enough exceptions to know that it doesn't always apply. We're basically debating the implications of those exceptions, at this point. I do love to debate, so I'm willing to continue, if you are. xD

I would argue that these few exceptions are meaning enough for everyone of that age to try, simply because it's almost impossible to determine whether someone is an exception or not. However, that's only if they want to try. If they don't, then they certainly don't have to.

Saying teenagers can't hold strong emotions to anyone outside of family is kinda judgemental, dont 'ya think?

Yes.

Which is why I say that it doesn't necessarily apply to everyone. Maybe to "most", but even that I've been treating only as a maybe/might. I do agree that most younger teenagers probably aren't ready for a relationship, though. Not due to inability to hold strong emotions for non-family members, but due to being way too recently introduced to this aspect of life to know how to deal with it properly. Finding someone with whom such feelings can be mutual is more difficult, because I will grant that understanding the emotions of others is more difficult when younger, but having those feelings is relatively straightforward.

I wouldn't really say it's judgmental. Cus I'm not trying to be judgmental. I'm saying that is kinda rare for that to happen.

Welp, this topic has been stirred into the wrong direction like many people stated before. I think you guys have helped Endevous with his problem greatly and answered his question, and that's what this topic was for.

If anyone wants to discuss the matter of love and relationships with teenagers -- just make a topic, but not here. If you do, please keep it friendly. ^^
