Highschool Love

"Did my heart love till now? Forswear it, sight! For I ne'er saw true beauty till this night."- William Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet, 1.5

Some may believe love is walking down the beach; a stary and breezy night, hand in hand with the one person who makes them happy. Some highschool kids may believe love is walking down the hall, in a crowded and hot school, hand in hand with the person they are dating.

It kind of disgust me when I am trying to walk to my next class and can't get to it unless I were to walk in the middle of two kids (proboly freshmen) macking on eachother. When I hear them say "I love you" and "I'll miss you" and then follow with something like "I don't know if I will be able to wait till next hour to see you" or "It's going to feel like eternity till I see you again", I just want to walk up to them and smack them.

I'm not against the highschool dating thing, I was doing it too. I didn't ever do the "I'll miss you" "I can't live without you" thing but I dated a guy, one guy. Dallas and I met as freshmen and dating from then until this year, which is about 4 years.

It's hard dating in highschool. There are labels that get put on you, people who talk about you, and of course that one person who isn't happy that you are together and may do something about it. Kids are still growing in highschool and may find themselves growing apart from the person they are dating; no matter how much they don't want to.

A highschool sweetheart; it's overrated.
