When is the right time to fall in love?

During our teenage days, our parents or guardians used to tell us that we were too young to fall in love because it might affect our studies. When we grew older in our late twenties, friends and relatives tend to put pressure on looking for someone to fall in love with. Is there such thing as correct timing in falling in love?

Like my mom said, fall in love at young age could affect your study, it would never concentrate on the things that should be. There would no focus in everything. But the feeling of feeling in love doesn't control the feeling. the only thing that could do is not into a serious relationship. Just into a friendship relationship it could be more easy and fun. A dating with a group with friends and playing some interesting as for student. the right age for to fall in love or into a relationship is after you've finished to your study and to be matured enough to handle a relationship.

Actually i had an experience having my first love at a young age. But being an obedient daughter to my parents i tried to ignore it. After college, i waited for that first love to come back into my life because i still had strong feelings for him. Frustrated, i end up marrying my best friend in college. Two years ago, for some unearthly reason, i met my first love again and had the opportunity to know how wonderful the person is. He revealed that he has feelings for me too. I ended up the friendship because it was too late for the both of us since we have our own families now. What if i followed my heart back then?

Time to move on chloe, past is past. You said already that you had both have families. Maybe there could be other reason why you've cross you're way once again. But one thing i sure of, is the things before doesn't the same. Maybe if both of you are still free and single it could be much better. Learn to focus on other ways with your family now, i bet more happiness you've felt. Good Luck my friend...

Thanks dear. I'm just going through some tough times in my married life right now that is why i kept on looking back to my past. But i already accepted my realities, which is my family and i pray that everything will be better soon.

Well i guess that's normal for parents to tell us that we should focus on our studies first before we engage in a serious relationship though when youre on the age of 113 to 16 i guess thats all infatuation and well some it might be true love. But for me theres no right time or wrong time when it comes to love. Because if it hits you, you cant never stop it and if you can you'll just go crazy about it. Just be in love and be happy!

Love happens whenever it happens. It's not unheard of for people to meet their true love when they're as young as 10. The difference is what love is at what age you are. When you're young, love is excitement and infatuation. When you're a young adult, love may not even be on your mind. When you've settled into your life, love is commitment and connection. It's possible to be with the same person and experience all those different kinds of love. It's possible to not fall in love until you're in your 30's, 40's or even older. You can't control how it happens.

i think there is no such thing as the "right time" when it comes to falling in love. anyone can fall in love anytime, anywhere. it's easy to fall in love but it's hard to find the right person to fall in love with.=D

I don't think you can hold love to a schedule. The right time to fall in love is when you find the person you are meant to be with.
