<p>Sylvan, I agree. For me they seemed VERY serious at the time. OF COURSE some people begin serious, even mature lifetime loves in HS. My sister did. No matter what, a kid’s emotions should be given validity. Nothing’s more infuriating than being patronized and not taken seriously.</p>
<p>I was trying to be careful to call his/ her D’s relationship a RELATIONSHIP. I assume it was fun, given the poster’s previous comments.
My relationships were mostly flights of fancy.</p>
