I don’t think you should become too attached to a person in High School. Sure some high school relationships do last as many people keep telling me. I just don’t think it is very likely. I knew going into high school. I was planning on going to college. I am seeing people whose college decision is being influenced by who they are dating. I knew I did not want that problem my sophomore year. “ I want to be close to my girlfriend” or “ I don’t want to leave him behind”. These are both things I have heard friends say. Your future should only be effected if you truly believe you want to be with this person forever, that you will marry them. This is possible. I have two friends that are planning to get married after high school.
I hate to be a downer but I even think that one of my friends is going to end up leaving her boyfriend behind for her career. I have told him that I think that will happen. He’s completely in love with her. I believe she is too but like me she is a career/ goal oriented person. She wont go to a school just to be close to him. She will go to one that’s best for her future career goal even if its on the other side of the country from him. Knowing my friend he would be crushed by it. Don’t put yourself through it unless its worth being with that person for a limited amount of time.
Still I think it can be sometimes worth it. I know three young couples who are getting married right out of high school. Two very soon. I cant wait for the wedding. Here’s a fact I will state . The two that are getting married soon aren’t going to college. They started working right away. The other two that are planning to be married are going to the same college. So I think relationships work best in these situations. If not don’t go to schools too far apart. Two hours apart seems to be a good distance for my friend Anna and her boyfriend. Just be cautious with how deep you fall for someone unless you know where its going.
