Young Friends I was not ready to date in middle school or high school. I was peer pressured into dating. My friends would call me prude. A guy in high school even asked ” Are you a tease like your friend Adrianne?” My girlfriends liked boys in high school or were attracted to guys in school but were either to shy to talk to certain guys or the young men’s feelings were not mutual. So they would be all in my business and try to dictate who I should I date or not date. I remember a boy who lived in my neighborhood liked me and even asked me out. He was really nice but friends had him come over to my table only for me to let him know that I didn’t want to go out with him. Then shortly later I started dating another guy that my friends thought he was cute for me. So the first guy that we shut down at the table saw that I had a new boyfriend. He was pissed off and said some hateful words about the new boyfriend.
Time goes on I end up going through ups and downs with my high school boyfriend. When I look back in life I would have spared myself a lot of heartbreak by not dating in high school. I spent days ditching with my high school boyfriend, arguing on a regular basis, getting in fights with other females behind him, and my grades going down in school because we were not attending classes and we were not focused on our school work. Some people in middle school were already pregnant and even more had children while attempting to make it through high school. Young people having a child is a lot of work. Why would you want to put yourself and a child through a life of difficulties by not even having a job, a car, or a place to house your child? The opposite sex is going to be around for many more decades so why not aim to get through middle school and high school before starting to date?
Let’s be honest young men at this age don’t have the means to even date. Most don’t have a job or a car. So what do they really have to offer you? Most just want to sexually experiment with you with no real commitment or plans for the future. Don’t fall for females or males pressuring you into dating someone when you are not ready to. Now a days I hear stories of twenty two years olds creating international businesses. I think it would be wise to focus more on your goals, dreams, and future career than spending time on relationships in high school that more than likely will not get you closer to your aspirations in life. Be like the twenty two year old CEO of COCO the food delivery robots who focused on creating something that benefits people all over the world instead of wasting time on males or females that will derail you from living your best life.
If you ever feel pressured in school to make decisions that your parents would not approve of or that you are unsure of talk to your teachers, school counselors, parents, older family members, and your parents. They are there to protect you and guide you. So called friends both males and females are usually misguided or are naive so they don’t always have the best advice or intentions for you.
