User blog comment:Marcia Aeris/Marcia's 5th Survey: Too young to love?/@comment-26888167-20171124115907

Well, I think that to love, one must first have the maturity needed to understand what a relationship truely means and implies. To be in a relationship, one must have the emotional maturity needed for that. And emotional maturity comes pretty late, when we've already finished growing. Now, it's nothing unusual for someone to develop crushes early in life, but it's not really probable that those early crushes will someday develop into true love for a permanent relationship.

So, with all that said, I believe that when one is about 20 years old, he or she becomes mature enough to have a serious relationship with someone. Of course, this may change from person to person, since some people mature earlier than others, but I also believe that one should dedicate the previous years to learning and self-improvement. I believe that before entering a relationship, one should have developed good qualities that come with emotional maturity, such as patience, altruism and self-control. So, in my opinion, the teenager should concentrate on growing emotionally as much as intelectually, and leave love for later, when they're more mature. As I said, I believe approximately 20 is a good age to start, since by then you're mature enough to be in a relationship.
