 Don't think for a second that
menfolk don't have love stories of
their own. True we don't publicise
it as much and you will be hard
pressed to find a man that would
shed a tear. But that doesn't mean
we aren't crying on the inside. My
first love story was when i was 10.
My mum brought me to the cinema to
watch a film called lassie come
home. A story of the love between a
boy and his dog. Up until my mum
died 3 years ago, she took great
pleasure in recounting how she
turned to talk to me during the
film and i was sitting with streams
of tears running down my face, and
how i got up and ran into the
toilets and stayed there until the
end of the picture. Years later,
and i confess i have watched a few
films that have brought me close to
tears, but the secret is, men watch
them alone in case they lose
control, and never ever speak of it
to anyone. I am only admitting it
because no one knows who i am. But
i will say this, the old films are
the best, boystown with mickey
rooney, who will look after my
children and imitation of life. And
in case you are wondering ,i am not
gay. I am married with 5 sons, but
i am a male nurse.

As of now i cant see the
difference, but from what i have
seen, between my parents... My
grandparents... My friends and
such... For me I'm still only 16
and I'm in what i guess u would
call a "teenage love story," my
story so far is a long distance
relationship... Its lasted 9 months
so far and its more like a fairy
tale, BTW I'm 16 and shes 15 as of
now... I met her down here in va
beach while she was on vacation...
I took her out to some places, cuz
this has been my home for 11 years
and i know a lot about it.. She was
here for a week or so in June of
2007 of coarse the beach is crowded
with endless amounts of people...
Just while walking down, i spotted
her and went over and started
talking to her... I ended up taking
her around the beach city, she
enjoyed it, i ended up getting a
kiss and all and found out she was
only here for vacation... She ended
up going home to carstairs, alberta
canada... But as of now i have seen
her since but we've talked for 9
months now and its just not getting
old always something new going
on... I started thinking about it,
and i kept thinking i like her way
to much for this to continue to be
a "long distance relationship" so
I've been Savina up what i can, I'm
planning to finish high school then
head up to Canada and she wants to
get married in Spain =D... Now when
skyadamani said teenage is not a
mature age... You gotta think of
who you are talking about... Ive
got the people who are naturally
mature and have the charm to do as
they please and get who they want,
when they want... I may be charming
and stuff... But shes got me and i
just wanna run away with her X_X |

Maybe. But I think it's friendship,
real friendship.
Because love in those days weren't
so real. But wonderful!! |

The rush of emotions and the
newness when you're younger does
cause the feelings to be through
the roof when you're a kid but I
think that too much time spent on
relationships when you're younger
can increase the risk that you're
comparing your marriage partner to
those that came before her or the
feelings you used to have compared
to what they are now. The equation
is completely different now. You
are now a man and no longer that
teenage boy. Marriage is so much
more than a rush of feelings and
doesn't have to be boring like you
are feeling right now. Have you
considered talking to your wife?
This is where the richness comes
into a relationship~when you are
willing to walk through the not so
fun things and come through them
together. This also builds intimacy
and a deeper closeness. It's about
you AND your spouse. Communicate
with her by listening and sharing
your heart with her. Also, put her
needs before your own not because
you're looking for something but to
show her you love her. Also I know
I like surprises. But not everyone
does. If you know she does,
surprise her. Take the initiative
to make your marriage intersting.
Leave her random notes to tell her
how much you care for her. Or hint
that you would like to take her
somewhere special. Keeping things
fresh, new and wonderful for the
long hall can be hard but anything
worth having will require some
work. You can still get butterflies
when you look at your wife and she
can feel the same for you. I would
encourage you to not compare your
teenage years to the adult
relationship you have now and make
your marriage new and exciting one
step at a time. Have a happy
marriage! |

I AGREE!teenage love stories are
soooo much more ausome!!! |
22 Sep 2007 03:33

I agree! I love writing love
stories! Especially if the
characters have something in common
with me |

I agree! I am a happily married
person as well, but it was
something about that (puppy love)
that stays with you forever! Maybe
because Love back then was
undiscovered territory and now it's
the same old road trip! (ha! Ha!) |

 Yeah , they are better when your a
teen because a girl only wants you
attention when your a teenager ..
She likes you for you personality
and looks for the most part when
you in love and young . .. When ya
become a man its all about how you
can help her with finances .. How
stable can you make her life in the
world of money .. Basically women
become whores ... And if ya ain't
making dollars then making love to
ya makes no sense .. I miss the
feeling of somebody liking me for
me , not for what i can do for em
.. Women Lose there ability to
truly love after there teen years
.. And they become more judgmental
.. Not less , like i thought adults
should mature .. Its funny when i
see a girl about a man of hers
being abusive .. And she cant leave
him cuz they have a home together ,
a women values the home more then
the man .. Most women become
pathetic .. I would slit my wrist
to find a good one ... |

I think love stories when youre a
teen really aren't "love" stories,
but they are fun to talk about. I
married my high school sweetheart,
so mine really was love..but I did
have some "like" relationships. |

I have to disagree...I too am
happily married and have been for
13 years. We have 3 kids and 2 dogs
and though I must say it is
difficult to get time to be a
"couple" we do make it a point to
do so. I still get butterflies when
I look at my hubby sometimes
(especially after a nice haircut).
You have to put time and effort
into the "relationship" apart from
the "family" in order for it to
work. Try having a date night for
just you and your mate or take a
trip together. I have found that
when I look at my husband although
he has faults and gets on my nerves
at times I try to always see
something great in him. |

Hey,
love stories can be Gd at any age. |

Well, I've never had a Gf, and I'm
17. However, I've noticed that love
in your teenage years isn't TRUE
love, it's lust. So I definitely
disagree. |

I think loves stories can be
equally good in late ages as it
remind you of the enthusiasm you
were having for each other and they
revitalize your love. |

My personal experience is that I
was blessed to have the most
fulfilling/satisfying, exciting,
romantic, passionate, incredible
love story of my life well after I
had passed my teens. Couldn't have
found a boring moment in it if I
tried (which I would not!! LOL)
Comparing to any other "love"
experience, it was by far the only
time I experienced what I believe
is intended for everyone... I feel
so blessed to have experienced
it.
Matador, I always love your
questions and the honesty of your
inquiries and candor of self
revelation. And besides, it's so
nice to know there are men who know
themselves and approach others as
human beings with genuinely
authentic human perspectives
(rather always hiding their
humanity behind a stereotypical
gendered lens). Ditto for Padraig. |

I think love stories are better if
you are an adult .you can appiate
them more as an adult. |

Love story in teenage years is very
romantic and sweet, but it doesn't
mean it's better. You find it
better just because it's past and
never come back again, the best and
most valuable love is in our real
life now, but most of us cannot
realize it, maybe when we grow old,
we'll find that love story is
always sweet throughout our lives. |

As they say, "Love makes the world
go 'round". You are never too
young or too old for love. I
remember all my flirtations and
relationships all the way back to
kindergarten. Every guy has a
different but
special place in my heart. |

Love story means, a succesful one
or an unsuccesful one, my dear
friend loll.
Love story is better in the later
stages of your life. Not in teenage
becoz, at that age, there is no
love but infatuation. Teenage is
not a matured age |
