Everyone has been through a high school relationship. From my experience, experiences of people I know, I have found that most high school relationships are NOT worth pursuing. Whether it's extreme fights or just being with someone you don't really like and all your friends say "GUYS DONT HAVE ROMANCE IN HIGH SCHOOL" Well, before you get into a relationship, ask yourself: Is the person you like going to be the same person next year?

Are they going to be one of those people who are completely different in college? If you can't answer those questions yes, then think TWICE about pursuing this kind of relationship.

High school is a great time to build a solid relationship foundation.

Dating someone from school will help you get closer to your guy.

High school dating is a tricky business, to say the least. On one hand, you're both in the same place at the same time, so you can see each other often. But on the other hand, you're both in high school, so there's a lot of drama involved (and not just with your friends).

Dating someone from school will help you get closer to your guy. You'll probably see each other more than if he were older or younger than you by a few years. Plus, if he goes to a different school, then you'll have all sorts of fun driving back and forth between schools just to hang out!

But all that isn't without its drawbacks. You have to deal with the fact that you two may go off to different colleges after high school and never see each other again (unless you run into him at homecoming!). And then there's always the chance that your high school sweetheart will end up being a major jerk who breaks your heart several times over before graduation rolls around (ahem).

The bottom line: High school relationships can last if they're worth it. If not, then don't waste your time on them!

To Sum Up

Many people think high school relationships are worth pursuing, but many others believe that they bring unnecessary social baggage and drama. A yearbook poll revealed that 68% of seniors think high school relationships are frustrating and pointless. However, more than half of the juniors and a third of the sophomores have said that they have had a boyfriend or girlfriend.

If you are considering pursuing a relationship in high school, then remember what you are there for: an education. Not all relationships in high school are going to be long term, if any at all. So if you think it's worth it to pursue a relationship, then do so. If not, then don't waste your time with someone when you could be spending it studying.
