Am I too young to be in love?

How do I know if I'm in love? My friends always say that they love with their crushes or BFs, but my mom says 13 is too young to be in love. Is she right?
 
Before ya do anything else, as yourself this, chica: am I really old enough to be worrying about love? You're 13, not even in high school yet, and your friends are declaring love for boys that may not even know they exist, or they only hold hands with in the halls? I don't know about you, girlie, but I don't think that sounds like they really love those guys. You should be worrying about acing your classes and having fun with your besties. Guys are wonderful and all, but being truly in love with them shouldn't be your biggest concern right now.
 
Your mom is totes right about 13 being too young to be in love. You haven't completely figured out who you are and what you want in life. Plus, love takes a long time to develop -- not just one week of going out, or seeing your cutie in class for two months. Sure, you can really like a guy and gush to your BFFs about how completely adorable and amazing he is, but love at 13 is totally too young to truly know if you're in love.

modmodmod- i've liked my crush for about 4 years now and i wanna ask him out but i don't trust people and i take things (like rejection) hard (because i'm depressed) and i'm afraid of what would happen if he said no and i'm really shy so i don't even know how/what to say... my friends think he MIGHT like me. please help!

 

Hey chica, I know rejection can defintely be hard to accept sometimes. But you have to remember EVERYONE gets rejected, I'm sure your crush has even been rejected. I think you should try talking to him. Holding conversations can give you an idea of how he feels about you. During your conversation see if he flirts at all, this will help you know. Hope this helps!!! Smile Smile Smile

MOD MOD so i'm finally over my ex (YAY!) and have moved on. i now like the guy, he's in 3 of my classes plus lunch and we talk a lot. he'll steal my drink (normally it's a bottle of juice) my gum or poke me and all of this isn't in a mean way. he calls me kenny, which is one of my nicknames from a while ago, too. however, he's a past fling from last summer, and this summer when he said he liked me a little i turned him down because i still liked my ex. what do i do? i really am starting to like him..but what signs do you think he's sending? thanks in advance!<3

 

Hey chicky, he obviously likes you! I think you should make a move! Smile Smile Smile Smile

fyi i think around 11 or 12 is when you really start to have serious feelings about someone according to the comments on this article (myself included) most seem to be 11 or 12

What gives them the right to tell us when we can and can't be in love? @pinkandlime i TOTALLY agree with u Smile
P.S. if this were a video on youtube there would be a huge dislike bar
