Is it wrong for me as a teenage girl/boy to be in love ?

It is not wrong for a teenage girl/boy to be in love with the right person or the right thing.

The teen-age is a very delicate stage in the life of everyone. Irrespective of your tribe , country , status or race , the teen-age comes with lots of diversities .

I was opportune to be in a place where there were thousands of teenagers and as I saw them walk past me , in their different shapes , colour , sizes , class ,I remember how teen-age was and I decided to share this.



I wouldn't blame any teenager for being in love. Though am not in support of teenage love because it's a complete waste of time.

But why do teenagers fall in love ?

Every teenager wants a sense of belonging , they want to feel loved. They have this crave for an identity. And so must of them feel that getting into a relationship will satisfy this longing.

Even though on the long run they end up with their hearts broken like mine was years back. lol

Funny enough , most teenagers in love feel that they are masters at this. They wonder why married couples quarrel , they feel that they have the pen to write an amazing love story in their hands.

Well , I had that notion too some years back about a decade ago or less when I was in love with a teenage boy. I feel like laughing and rolling on the floor as I remembered this.

 Let me be honest with you , I have forgotten how long the relationship lasted , but it was less than six months. But all we said to each other were lies. We thought we were in love but we kept on telling each other lies. Or what do you call two teenagers talking about marriage and building a home ?

Teenage love is a waste of time and teenage romance and sex is a waste of purpose.


The teen age is that period where your hormones gets active. They become alive and that feeling might be very alien to your body.

I remember when puberty came at me, it came even without my permission. I saw puberty as a thief trying to steal my childhood from me.  I resented it but I was helpless as it kept coming in different stages.

Can you imagine , all of a sudden that small body you know starts developing without asking for your permission ,it seems uncontrollable.

There is no way one can ever compare the body of a teenager to the body of a full grown adult.

An adult is already used to the workings of the hormones in his / her body so they might not understand you as a teenager , even though they passed through that stage too.

But one day , you as a teenager will become an adult , what do you want to remember your teen-age as ?

A stage where you chased the opposite sex up and down or a stage where you found purpose ?

It is not wrong for a teenage girl / boy to be in love with Jesus
it is not wrong for a teenage girl/boy to be in love with good grades in school
It is not wrong for a teenage girl/boy to be in love with family and friends
It is not wrong for a teenage girl / boy to be in love with good hobbies like reading , writing , acting , cooking , baby sitting etc


But it is totally wrong for a teenage girl /boy to be in a romantic relationship its what I call misplaced priority.
 Its a destiny and purpose stealer. Trust me on this. You have so much to offer to someone than your body.

Build yourself to be the best , encourage yourself , be in the right company , have a mentor , challenge yourself ,  spend time on personal development , spend time with your loved ones , volunteer at life transforming events , these and many more are things you should be in love with and not the opposite sex.
