Age Limit for Love?

You’re too young to know what love is.

Since when does love have an age limit? What age are you suddenly aloud to understand what love is?

Isn’t love when you can’t go a day without thinking about someone? When you like someone whole-heartedly despite their flaws? And wanting what’s best for them, no matter what it does to you?

This is what love is to me. And I realize, as I think about my boyfriend and how he must be hurting that we aren’t talking, I may really love him.

He means so much more to me then all the others. And when I think about him, even after these three months, my heart still beats like crazy… Where with the others, I couldn’t last this long. I just feel so comfotable with him… and I know I can tell him everything and anything.

So, because I’m younger, what I’m feeling isn’t love? Or is it? Who decides? I think that decision is left up to God and if he decides it’s your turn for love, regardless of age, he’ll let you know. I believe he’s let me know it’s my turn…
