Just wondering if anyone feels a relationship at age 19 is even worth it?

It all depends on you, dear. Some people meet the love of their life at an even younger age then you. Some don't' find it until they're in their 70's... There's nothing wrong with dating around and seeing what you do/don't like and what you can/will/can't/won't put up with in relationships. You don't have to marry anyone right now. Wouldn't recommend that anyway...lol, divorce rate among married couples under 21 is like 80%... anyway, just have fun being young. Sit back, relax, make friends, and enjoy being 19. It'll be gone before you know it. I'm still only 23 and it boggles my mind when I catch myself saying 'when i was 19'

Every relationship, whether it be friends, lovers, family, whatever is worth it, even if it doesn't turn out well in the end. They open your heart and soul and they teach you something about yourself that maybe you would never have known. I agree though, generally speaking, getting married at a young age is not always the best thing. But, my best friend married at 19, and is still very happily married, they just celebrated their 21st anniversary.

A relationship takes a heck of a lot more than just being in love, it takes a lot of work sometimes, patience, forgiveness, a very thick skin occasionally, common goals, understanding, compromise (especially on things you never thought you could compromise on) and it takes both parties to contribute all of these things. I'm sure there are others I missed bigsmile That's why a lot of marriages fail, it's not lack of love, it's lack of the other ingredients. You can't make a cake with only sugar laugh laugh

Having been through a couple of long-term relationships, a marriage and a divorce, I'm not even sure anymore it's the bottom line. It's more of a starting point. If the other stuff isn't there for whatever reason, love dies very, very quickly. No expert here, just my experience and opinion.

:smile: :smile:

Not about being right, but you're so young and if it gives you something to consider before jumping in head first, you may avoid a lot of heartache someday, that's all.
