Reasons Why Middle School Relationships Are Stupid

I do not think that any middle school or even high school love is real. I remembered getting into a middle school relationship with a girl back when I was in seventh grade. It felt good at first, but within a few weeks, it was over and it created a lot of stress and agony for the two of us. Animosity took place, and it wasn't really that pleasant of an experience. Middle school relationships are curses, and I think that there's nothing beneficial about them. - dingodile2603

From previous experiences from my old middle school (or Primary/early high school since I don't live in America) I have found that Relationships there last about five minutes walking around the school field just to get attention from classmates.

I'm still in middle school and everyone that says they " love " someone THEY DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT LOVE IS! - lucario_ninetales

I have seen a few couples that actually show affection for each other, but most don't. A lot of people might want a girlfriend/boyfriend just to make someone jealous, to be popular, or for pleasure. - ethanmeinster

I'm in seventh grade and I go to a private catholic school and there is a sixth grader that dates an eighth grader

I have a friend who's in college, and he says you don't need to be in a relationship until your out of high school. And I agree with him. Cause why do you need a mate in high school or middle school?

My parents met in high school and had my sister than me after getting married so shut it!

There's some kid who looked stupid and I said the day he got his 1st girlfriend before I did was that I would consider cutting off my feet. Recently he got a girlfriend and I still haven't got one so I cut off both my feet. See? That's how immature we are! Also that kid didn't even go out with that girl for a full day...

This is really true. A lot of the guys and girls and just looking for the title of "girlfriend/boyfriend". And they think that they are mature, they're really not. They still haven't develop their frontal lobe yet. People just need to calm down, like seriously.

When I dated a person (not going to name her), my peers caught wind, and they started watching my every move with that girl. It was so annoying that I was forced to break up with the girl just to get them to stop talking about it; however, even though I'm still in middle school, I'm actually mature enough to think middle school dating, and the never-ending gossip is completely pointless and stupid, and that teachers and staff should take action against it.

Many people at school just want to mind their own business, and don't want others to be all up in their business. However, if you choose to get into the drama of a middle school relationship, many people would be talking about every single action that you do, and get angry at you if you make a mistake, even though no one's perfect. - ethanmeinster

How is this not the top?! I'm in middle school and all I want to do is talk to my mate (a boy) and now he hasn't talked to me for 5 MONTHS now because there are rumours that I like him. I wish people understood what no means

There's a big, fat, ugly girl in my art class and someone thinks I like her but I can't say she's a damn freak of nature!

I agree because is very toxic and he likes to talk about me when I'm not around. He always causes stress for me. Currently me and my parents went up to school to file a complaint about it. He even threaten to get his 10th grade sister to fight me. Honestly I feel like he only wants attention because I don't give it to him. Also he broke up with me because he said our relationship was boring but he wasnt helping either. But I'm not coplaining to be honest he was just making my life a living hell if were talking honestly. he's literally someone whos a clown and just mad cause his life is miserable which clearly doesn't mean make mine misrable but my mom said never trip over somebody that does extra shi* for attention and that's on periodt

I was just in a relationship with the most beautiful girl in the school and she broke up with me becasue all the stress that was being caused.

You can end up getting a lot of pressure from peers and if not careful, start being bullied or become a laughing stock

Ha! I'm very glad that I've never dated at school. It can distract you from your education.

In my school district, there are rules against PDA, and detention can be issued if caught. Any "inappropriate touching" or "sending nudes" could lead to legal issues or expulsion, even if the two give each other permission. - ethanmeinster

If emotional tensions get too high, then bullying, both emotional and physical, can occur. Hateful or threatening texts can be sent or a fight can occur. Also, both guys and girls have fought with whoever cheated on them. - ethanmeinster

Why do u need to support them...your in middle school. Your not gonna need money for a house payment

This problem does not exist, I'm pretty sure. - BKAllmighty

MIDDLE SCHOOLERS DON’T NEED TO PAY BILLS, GENIUS. - NightmareCinema

While it may be tempting to get a relationship early, it's not all about that in life. If you're just concentrating on needless drama, then you'd fall behind your peers who are working hard to get to college. I'd say that it's best to focus on your own academic and family issues before focusing on relationships. - ethanmeinster

I agree, people should wait until they're older. - cosmo

So what if it does? - NightmareCinema

LEK

It only lasted 2 weeks before I got sick of him. I was in the 6th grade at the time. Before we started dating, we were great friends. I hated dating him, it was a dare made by a friend, and it turned out, the boy actually liked me. I broke up with him through a friend, since I was too scared to actually say it myself. The break-up shattered our friendship, but we became friends again in the 8th grade. - Pegasister12

There's this hoe at my middle school. 13 boyfriends in one school year. Each relationship has an estimated 1-2 week duration. My close friends and I got busted for calling her a hoe LOL

Literally every relationship in my school has ended within weeks. If you're going to be in a relationship, you might as well be serious about it! - Icantbelieveitsnotbutter

Actually a friend of mine dated his Girlfriend for 7 years in school - KDProductions

That's what it was like during the relationship, which was only 2 weeks. - Pegasister12

Exactly what happens at my school

So true my friends and I made this rule don't say you have a crush on them until you've relajes and gotten to know them

Ha! The feels. - Fandom_Lover

Even highschool & college relationships end in heartbreak. Happens to all of us.

I did it once a became depressed afterwards

Heartbreak, like death, it happens all the time

Maybe. But you must accept it. First rule of life... - Fandom_Lover

Just my faithful opinion, but what is the point of dating when in the next several weeks your face will be smashed against a pillow drenched in tears? I choose not to date because it's not like my first crush will marry me, and we will end up breaking up at some point!

Not much when I was with someone. I was kind of regretting it, but moved on. - Fandom_Lover

Even though I know someone who started dating at 14 and is now married for 15 years, almost all first relationships fail.

Unless they have REALLY incredible luck

Hardly? more like never. - MountainDewKid101

So can any other relationship.

Some people in my school are talking about "it" and I'm just like "boy" this is middle school you shouldn't be celebrating you should be checking into a doctors office.

I'm in seventh grade and a girl almost got pregnant. - Popsicles

Yuh Most 11th Graders In My Class Are Always Talking About Losing Their Virginity This Year. - AlphaQ

I was in the 8th grade, my friends pushed this kid I liked to date me and I friend zoned him after a day because I felt so confined and its retarded to be at an age where instead of just having fun you have to feel as of you need someone to love, at 13 0_o thank god I was somewhat smart and at least had the brain at that age to realize that middle school relationships is a waste of time and nothing to stress about I'm a small bit older and still single I've had people ask me out and I still say no do to confinement, I just wanna do my thing... so again waste of time and useless depression when you break up :P

Children at this age should be focusing on more important things in their lives. Love can wait.

Seriously? - NightmareCinema

I didn't talk to him for 2 years. - Pegasister12

SO TRUE

very true

So young to not know true love, kids these days are idiots

Same

That’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard - NightmareCinema

All you really do is hold hands while you walk beside each other or maybe- just maybe- you'll actually kiss, but it's rare

Yep. Everyone I know is bragging about their boyfriend, when they aren't actually dating. - RiverClanRocks

He didn't even want to hold hands. - Pegasister12

True, but ma fruends kiss like everyday.

Don't send nudes in the first place, that's the stupidest thing to do.

Makes it hard to talk to my friend because. Of her gossiping about stuff

Ya. One of them thought they were pregnant at 11! what. Thankfully they were pregnnat

Whait what?
