Life of single

While it may seem that there are happy couples everywhere, a single teen may feel very lonely and depressed at times. It is important to keep things in perspective. Teenagers must deal with several stressful events, such as huge hormonal changes, pressure to perform well in school and family responsibility. While it may seem that happy couples are everywhere; it is important to remember that each person in that couple was single before they met each other. In addition, they may single again in a year, a month or a day from now. Being single can have it good points. It can allow a person to concentrate on areas of their life that may be ignored if spending a lot of time with another person. A teen can focus on sports, studying, hobbies and friends. A teenager should never feel pressure to date or be in a relationship simply because others are doing so. Everyone is different and must live in the way that is best for them. No one remains single forever. There is a match for everyone; it is simply a matter of time.

Being single can have its ups and downs, and people can lose confidence in themselves, but people have to pursue the career of their lives so they can increase their confidence. This is something that I had to learn.

Relationships and Age Difference...

A lot of people may say that age is a state of mind, that a person is only as old as they feel. That is an upbeat and optimistic approach to aging; however the question is if that applies when it comes to relationships. It has quite often been acceptable for a male to be the older person in a relationship. Some issues can arise if the opposite happens; a younger man and an older woman. In addition, there can be some issues as well, if the male is many years older than the female. It is possible to have a secure and loving relationship in which there is an age difference, if both people involved understand certain issues that may arise and they can work together to resolve them. One dynamic that can make or break a relationship is the common ground that you share with the other person. Most people will undoubtedly get along with someone who has similar interests and hobbies. A night owl versus a morning bird will certainly not be in sync with each other. The same theory holds true for interests. While it is healthy to have some of your own personal interests, it is very helpful to the relationship that you share time together doing things that you both enjoy. Think about whether the age difference will affect activities done together; whether they be hiking, skiing or watching movies, these times spent together will keep the relationship strong. Most importantly, if you and your partner feel you are right for each other, age will not matter. We all begin our quest for love as young adults and we live with the intention of holding strong into our senior years. If two people are lucky enough people find each other, it usually will not matter at which point in life they do so. When it comes to love, age is just a number.
