I was fourteen, almost fifteen when mike and I started dating. We've been together for more than 13 months and we're still doing great. I love him. Being in a serious, committed relationship is not easy all the time, its work too, but I wouldn't trade it for the world. He means everything to me, and a lot of people don't understand being this loyal to someone at our ages, but it makes sense for us, and thats all that matters.
Whenever youre comfortable, or hte time/person is right for you, thats when you need to get into a relationship. There no magic age saying "hey, youre this old, you need a boyfriend." just like theres no magic age saying 'hey, youre this old, you need to get married nad have kids'. It just doesn't work that way.
