hey guys so today I'm going to be
talking about what age you should start
dating there's really no like right
cookie cutter answer of like you have to
need this exact age when you start
dating in this exact age when you get a
boyfriend but here's just what I think
the ubiquitous correct answer is it
depends it is always going to depend on
the individual and you know the maturity
it depends is it really a real answer
like this is a very specific question so
I give you guys a very specific answer
of what I think this is my opinion and I
know some people are going to disagree
with it which is totally fine you can
disagree with it okay so in my how to
get a boyfriend in middle school video
which I will put down below um I meant a
lot of comments that were like oh girls
in middle school shouldn't be thinking
about boys okay you know what telling
middle school girls not to think about
boys at all is telling a dog to stop
barking and start meowing it's not gonna
happen it's not gonna happen girls and
boys think about each other that's how
it works
girls think about boys boys think about
girls like telling them just to not to
pretend that they don't exist like it's
just it's stupid in elementary school
I actually didn't like boys I swore off
boys forever for the rest of my entire
life
clearly that did not work when I got to
middle school that's when I started like
having crushes at first don't think that
there's anything wrong with having
I think that if you're having like 12
boyfriend's you know per grade that's a
bit of a problem but I think tap a crush
on a boy in middle school is totally
normal and I don't think that that's
some like obscene you know absurd notion
that a middle school girl likes a middle
school boy I don't really think it's not
crazy so realistically I don't know of
any middle school relationships that
have worked out I personally don't know
anybody who's you know big
boyfriend/girlfriend in middle school
and have been together for many years I
don't know of it but I think that you
know even having an experience like that
is a good one um
so I think that in terms of like
boyfriend/girlfriend relationships that
last long-term I do actually know of a
couple people who have gotten together
in high school even like freshman year
and they're still together now many
years later so um I do think that you
know high school relationships my school
boyfriend/girlfriend can potentially
work out you know it's not the most
common thing ever for people to stay
together for a long time after high
school but it works out it definitely
does so I think in middle school it's
good to kind of like you know have group
hangouts and kind of group dates almost
I mean a date is really just a name like
it's just something to be called there's
nothing wrong if you hang out with a
bunch of friends and the guy you like
happens to be there and you guys see a
movie and you sit next to him like some
people will say oh you're too young to
date I don't think that there's anything
wrong with seeing a movie
with a boy in middle school personally I
think that even makes you better and
more prepared for high school because
then when you get to high school you're
not going to be all socially awkward
like oh boy it is so weird
but one thing to keep in mind is that
having a boyfriend or dating someone or
even really liking someone is a huge
huge huge time commitment and it's a
time and energy commitment you're going
to spend a lot of time thinking about
them checking up on them you know going
out with them texting them telling your
friends about them you know it's a huge
commitment in the end you all you may
end up with is a broken heart there are
obviously other things you could be
doing but to just tell someone oh you
have to focus on school and middle
school in high school and you can't bake
till you're in college it's a little bit
ridiculous and it just doesn't typically
happen so what to answer the big
question of this video what age should
you start dating well again it depends
but I think it's okay to start dating at
age 13 14 and 15 I think that if you're
mature enough and if you're ready for it
and if you can handle it then I don't
see a problem with dating at that age
you know I think middle school high
school it's a great place to kind of
figure things out and kind of kind of
get started with the get started with
the opposite sex that's what I think I
think dating at age 13 and up is is what
I would say to be appropriate and I know
that people are gonna disagree with me
that's cool that's all good that's your
opinion you know if you if you think
that dating is a waste of time in middle
school in high school that's all you
don't have to do those things you can
convince everybody you know to do
this is my opinion this is what I think
so that was my video thumbs up cuz I
love you guys not and yeah
leave me a comment below to tell me what
you guys think what age you guys started
dating you know what you know I'm
interested to hear I obviously know
there's gonna be differing opinions
which is okay but yeah just let me know
what you guys think and I will talk to
you guys later bye
