Well, this is an interesting topic(the one on Onion Head). I agree with you Chase. Love can be very deceiving sometimes. You may feel you love someone that you have known for a long time. You may tell that person you love them, and tell them secrets you don't tell anyone else. They might even love you back. They may even go to the point of saying you are their "soul mate." This, however is not always real love. One day, they love you, but the next day, they could meet someone totally different. They might abandon you, leaving you with feelings that instantly are destroyed. Your "love" is gone. In high school, a person is not grown up. Hell, in college, a person isn't grown up. It takes time to be able to actually love a person as in the type of love that marriage/dating comes with. One may see someone and think they "love" them because: 1. they are good-looking 2. they can be talked to easily 3. they "love" you for who you are 4. you can trust them 5. etc. The list goes on and on. This, however, is not "love." This is friendship. Just because you meet someone who you mesh with well, and can say nice things to you, doesn't mean you love them or they love you. It is friendship, simple friendship. There are two types of love. 1. friend/family love 2. "soul mate" love When you have only been on the earth less than 19 years, you have probably not experienced "soul mate" love. You may have thought you have, but you haven't.
