high school romance... worth it?

In high school, not only is homework stressful, but there's also that special crush to deal with. But once that crush turns into more, can you still balance your homework load, your teachers, your friends, your new boy/girlfriend, and not to mention your parents? Is this relationship worth the trouble?

Yes, it is. In highschool you don't have enough things to do, that you can't dedicate some time to your bf/gf. It's so much fun too, but it's also very important to do other stuff, because if you do break up with them and you dedicated all your time to them, you've probably got a bad reputation and you haven't done anything, which you will wish you did

We call it puppy love. harhar. Yes I think that it is worth it. It makes you who you are right now. Yes this makes you more inspired to go to school because you need to prove to anyone that being in love is not a hindrance of schooling. That's what i did before.

Hahaha, you just reminded me of my 'teen' years. In my point of view high relationship has nothing to do with your 'homework' as long as you can manage it. For example, setting a schedule for you and your bf/gf to talk. When it comes to study, then study, no more love talk... I just mentioned it to my best-friend treated as Bid Sister, who happened to be a teacher too in my high school, but I was not under her. I was afraid to talk it to may mother although I knew I am not doing any bad thing. I thought I was young enough that time to let her knew I had already someone.. hahahaha.

In my country, students who enter high school are still very young. As far as I can remember, I had crushes before but they didnt turn out well. I think its because they didnt know I exists because I dont want them to. And my mother was very strict when I was in high school. I was not allowed to date which I am thankful for because I think I was still very young during my high school days.

I think it is. If the person is really special enough. Also, it's all a part of multitasking...good skill to have? :)

I never had romance when I was in high school. But I surely have many friends to talk with. This is something I miss so much. It's really worth it staying in High School than in College.

I felt all that problems when I was in high school. I dated some boys without telling my parents cos they forbade me had a boyfriend when I was in high school. though I had boyfriend(s) but that's not influence my achievement in my study. I still could get best score in every lessons I took. you know what, I really2 enjoyed my time in high school. If I could turn back time, I'll set time to my high school time. LOL.
