I've been thinking about this a lot lately. Do you believe someone my age, 19, could actually be in love with another person? I have been dating my boyfriend for about two years now, but we've known each other since we were 10. I have dated more than a hand few of guys and they never meant anything to me. I know that sounds bad, but they knew I was not committed. I have never felt the way I do about my boyfriend, and I have had one previous, serious relationship that lasted for four years, so it is not like he is my first serious relationship. Any thoughts or comments?

You two are a beautiful couple together. Only you will know if you are in love and if it can last. I do have to say, love comes at many different times in your life and to enjoy what you have until you know for sure if it is the one for you!!! On a side note--I was completely freaked out about the bond I felt with my husband when I first met him...we have been through so much together, but after 16, almost 17 years together--he is still the one!!!

There are all different kinds of love and lust can color the mix too. What you feel is valid and only time will help you sort out what it is. Sounds like what ever it is, it is good and at the end of the day, that's what matters.

Sure I think it could be love. Beautiful pic by the way. It's even better when you grow up together and have such fond memories.

I have to agree - beautiful dress! It's a very pretty style, and fits you to a tee.

When I think of love, or loving someone, I think of it as a verb - an action word - rather than a noun - or just a feeling / thought / thing. For me, my personal definition of love is what happens between people, and something people DO.

I think that if someone feels like home, if you feel more comfortable around them than anyone else, if you feel more like yourself around them, or maybe like a better version of yourself... if you think about their feelings, needs and wants over your own, if you would rather work issues out instead of preferring to "win a fight", if you actively do thoughtful and helpful things for them (small or large) and if you'd rather think of a future with them than without them... that's what love looks / feels / sounds / acts like in my book. (It's a lot of other things to me too, but you get the basic idea.) Using that definition, to me, it takes a while to really love someone - because it takes a while for them to become that big a part of your life.

I believe it is fair to think that someone can love someone else at ANY age, so sure, you could really be in love. I don't see any reason why feelings of love should be considered invalid or impossible just because of your age.

Thank you. That really makes sense, and honestly, I do feel like I love him, it's just a new feeling for me.

That is so true. I was kinda struck a helluva lot earlier than I thought would. We have our difficulties, faults, and fights, but we trudge through them, and we're still together.

Age isn't a deciding factor in whether or not a couple is in love. You'll know it when you are.

I have come to terms that I do love that boy man with everything that I am because we got into a big fight (Has to do with the future mother-in-law) and I cried myself to sleep for about a week because I could not see myself without him. I may be young, but I know that what the two of us share is real. It just took me a while to figure it all out.

Yep. You can fall in love from a pretty young age, though our culture doesn't like to acknowledge that much.

I believe you can fall in love at any age. Like many people have said, you will definitely know it when you see it. And I like the dress.
