It’s nearing Valentines Day, you know.
So, a good topic for a blog post would be about “romantic” relationships forming between guys and girls in school.
It’s not that there’s a ban on that, but we still have much to learn, being First Years and all.
I wish I could enumerate all the couples I see at school everyday, but some people are gonna get offended. You know, I remember someone who asked me who the people involved were, and I mentioned the person’s name as part of the couples…
And besides, I couldn’t even “confirm” if “sila na nga“, although it’s easy to see if they’re doing PDAs and stuff, it’s harder to find out whether those actually mean something.
Wait a minute… what does “couples” mean anyway? For me, it simply means “two people who like each other, or maybe one likes the other and one doesn’t mind being with him/her”.
With the first (the stricter) definition alone, a certain couple comes to mind (but I’m not mentioning it because it involves the person I mentioned above).
With the second definition, I see…. one… two… three… four…. more couples…
But of those couples I’m only sure that one actually likes the other.
And a lot of those are familiar people in love-hate relationships.
Okay, let’s say you think having a relationship is great because it you think it makes you more “mature”. Let’s say you’re a guy, and your parents don’t really mind about relationships as long as they don’t go out of hand.
Now, we have this girl. You like her very much, she likes you very much. But there’s a problem. She came from an exclusive school, meaning her parents don’t really like her doing any stuff with guys that goes beyond friendships (stereotypical exclusive school girl parents, hehe.)
So, what do you do? Call off the relationship (painful to both of you), hide it from your parents (though still obvious to others), or just hide it and just show your affections to her in someplace secret?
It’s not about secrecy, really – it’s about how you can handle it. I mean, if you really really like her, and you want to marry her (uhuh,) can you go steady with her for, say, five years? And you’re just a First Year high school student? I don’t think so. The odds that she’ll become pregnant before that time are much higher.
Just one thing to say… If you have a relationship with someone at this young an age…
Good luck.
