Which is exactly why love sucks.... Love can be the most beautiful thing ever, but it can also be the most painful. I am currently in love with soneone who will never aknowledge my existence.... Don't ask, I won't answer. Nothing hurts worse than being in love with someone who doesn't love you back. The emotional pain, the ache in your heart, the burning of tears in your eyes.... I can't think of anything that hurts more.

You can't stop feelings and I hate when people say you are too young because you can't hide it

You are too young. Don't hurry it's comes along with a lot of trouble. You love your family and friends, that's all the love you need at this age. Don't complicate your life before it's necessary.

No more than about 75...

13 sounds a little young. Wanting to be in love - that also sounds a little too young...

Having a girlfriend or boyfriend doesn't mean being in love.I had a boyfriend at 9 yrs but there was no" in love" to it. It was he liked me I liked him that was it.

There is no certain age you have to be to fall in love. I am 13 and i have had boyfriends before. Just don't make your relationships too serious...until you're like 21 or something. Lol. But yeah, it doesn't matter your age. It matters when you truly feel that your heart is in love with someone.

GROW little guppie! You need to grow into your little fins, feel comfortable in your little scaly skin, and know who you are before you jump headlong into the DEEP waters of love! I really hope you're not that empty headed. Please take this wise advice in all seriousness. ~ QueenMar

First tell me what you feel being "in love" means... No you aren't too young to love and care for someone... But I'm trying to figure out why, at 13, you want to be "in love." If you are surrounded by family and friends who love you and care about you... Being "in love" shouldn't be much of an importance to you. Why do you want to be "in love?" I guess I can't accurately answer this without knowing more. At 13, you should be more concerned with going to jr high or high school and hanging out... Trying to figure out what to wear the next day or what movie to go see with your female friends... Of course you'd probably be talking about how cute you think this guy is or that guy... But wanting to be "in love?" Sorry, but at your age, there are so many things you should be doing or wanting to do that being "in love" will derail you from experiencing the best years of your life. Don't rush into situations that will cause you to loose any of your "childhood" please. You are going to end up going through so many boyfriends from now until the time you ACTUALLY fall in love.... But each and every single guy you date, you are going to "think" you are in love, when actually you are not. Just enjoy being a teen... Once you enter into adult situations, you'll never get to change your mind and go back to just being a kid. Trust me, being a teen is hard enough, don't complicate things before it's time. Being an adult or being in adult type situations is not all that's it's cracked up to be... there's a ton of downsides to it. Good luck...

Thanks Waldorff.. They won't understand because just like all of us adults, when we were young we thought we knew it all and then some... It's so crazy, when you are young you want to be older, but you don't even think about what it truly means to be an adult... Or the responsibilities and consequences that come along with adult decisions... When you are an adult, most of us would give everything to be a child again without all the complications of being an adult!

There's no age in love .. iShould know ... But iThink that being single and happy or in a relationship that's not all that complicated yet is way way better than being in love .. Too much stress ... The drama ... don't be in a hurry to fall in love just because the words 'falling in love' sounds like a fun ride . :)

I don't think you can really be "in love" at 13.
most 13 year olds don't even know what love is.
most of them think they can make out and be "in love" but, there's a lot more to love than that.
and you can have a relationship and not be in love to the person who said they had a bf or gf or whatever, I've had two, my first two this year,
and I can't really say I was in love with them.
I think love is when you care about someone so much that you can honestly say you'd give your life for them,
it's when you can accept the flaws but you think their uh.. Not flaws stand out above all.
when you feel a connection to this person that is based solely on the person and not on sex or anything.
when you truly love that person more than anyone an can't go a day without them,
when you practically feel what they feel. It's wanting to be with that person for the rest of your life and trusting them. And being honest.

and yes I thought I was in love once because me and a guy dated for 7 months, but I guess I shouldn't have ever even let myself get so attached because it turned out he was just using me and so it hurt a lot to know I would have given every thing or him.
then the other one just didn't work our because I kept getting grounded because my dads.. BLEH, but point is most teen relationships won't work out so don't get too attached and say things you don't mean if you don't actually know cuz someone gonna get hurt an trust me almost three month later and im still hurting because of this guy, but i am pretty sensitive so that might just be me but still..

You can't make yourself fall in love, and you're never too young. You can't help it when it happens. I'm almost 13 and I'm in love. (although I'm being torchered by being "just friends")
