Does anyone here have any advice about love???
What do you mean, exactly?

Hmm... you have a crush???!!!
(August 3, 2009 - 9:46 pm)
Maybe.

Don't fall into it unless you want a broken heart that won't be the same from all the times you've patched it back up with glue :D

Love???? Don't ask me!

Since I don't know your religion and most of my advice is centered around the Bible, this is hard, but first, honesty is essential. And secondly, love isn't a toy. Don't get involved with someone if you don't mean to spend the rest of your life with them. You can ruin your life and theirs by fooling around. Thirdly, our culture's definition of love is twisted. Love is an act of the will, followed by the emotions. It's not a warm, fuzzy feeling. It's a choice to serve someone selflessly. If you believe the Bible, get a concordance and look up the word love. You'll be surprised at what you find, I think.

Very well said, Emily. H!! That's exactly what I think.

Nicely put! And I am a Catholic, so yes, I believe in the Bible.

Awesome! And I like your initials: EW. They're really cool.

Oh boy. No... I don't. Poor you, sounds like you've had your heart broken... and at twelve too. Hmm....
(August 4, 2009 - 11:20 pm)
No, I haven't. Not yet, anyway. Thank goodness.
(August 10, 2009 - 4:58 pm)
Oh good. :)

Hmm, well, I can't really say I do. :\ My best
advice is to wait a few years before dating, because
many times people just aren't mature enough to
take a relationship seriously. But that's always
debatable... *shrugs* I'm sorry. :(

Well it depends. What sort of advice do you need?
