 True. I'm in love with
someone..we're only thirteen, and
he's not the cutest guy in the
world, but he has a great
personality and an intelligent mind
and a beautiful heart, but everyone
else goes out just because the
other one is hot or good-looking.
Most of the time, though, the other
ones are stupid as a rock.

 Who Cares!! I am a teen and I date
but for 1)popularity, 2)Because I
really like the guy I date. So why
not let us date for popularity. I
have only had sex once an dit was
because of peer pressure but I am
not pregnant.

 I think that this is true to some
degree. Dating the right person
could pull you up to a higher
social class.

 They try and date the "hottest"
girl or guy, and then talk about
it. That's okay, I was just making
a statement, I am not offending
anyone.

 Yes! Teens usually go for dating
for popularity & that is where
"flirtism" concept gets even more
stronger, when that dating is just
for popularity & not meant for any
solid long-term relationship.
Dating should be not for popularity
but truth is, unfortunately most of
the times nowadays, is opposite.

 It's true, but also true for
adults. At any age, people date for
attention and popularity.

 A lot of teens do date just so they
are popular among their friends and
are hip with the in crowd.
Sometimes they take part in things
that a teen should not be doing
just so they can brag about it to
their friends.

 Yes i totally agree
they just in love with the taught
of being in love
and so most of them do it to fit
in, and to be popular, and they
think that they soo in love, to me
thats so ridiculous, teenagers dont
know whats love, they only
experience infatuation, and thats
why the people you date when you
young you usually dont end up
marrying

 I know some people who definitely
do, they aren't even interested in
their bf/gf until there are other
people around, I would have to be
half and half here as a lot of
teens definitely do not date for
attention/popularity

 Firstly, if you are a teen an adult
is not your peer, your peer's are
other teens of your age group. A
lot of teen's date due to "Peer
Pressure" that is, their friends
date so they do to appear to fit in
or they get left out. If you don't
want to date to fit in then don't -
you should not have to date someone
you do not really like in that way.

 The teen years are a time when kids
are particularly susceptible to
peer pressure, and the need to be
popular is overwhelming. If that
means dating, they're going to
date whether they are ready or not.
That can lead to trouble when a
nine-year old decides that they
need to have sex. They haven't
even had any sex education yet!

 A lot of teens date because they
think it's what they need to be
doing in order to fit in with their
peers.

 Dating is a serious issue.Teens
don't date for popularity.And they
know it.Teens are not fools as
adults think them to be.They know
to handle their matters and believe
me or not,they do it well.

botfriends and the popular boys

are intellegent or don't wear
makeup don't get a second look all
the boys are buisy drooling over

 Sometimes this is true. Popular
kids date popular people for the
popularity and that IS true. But
thing is sometimes kids do date
truly because this person is
nice/funny/smart basically awesome
. I mean ( have a crush on this
girl that's not rly popular but I
think she's amazing but my friends
think she isn't. But sometime
adults are right sometimes they're
wrong. But on this subject I'm
gonna go 50-50 on it.

 Depends. I'm not american, I'm
portuguese, and in portuguese
schools we don't give much value to
popularity. We date because we are
in loved, that's all. There is no
pressure.
