How do you cope with having missed out on teenage love?

I'm going to try to not fuck up and miss out on 20s love. It's going poorly so far but that's because of depression and anxiety.

I cared more about drugs than sex as a teenager to be honest

It's never too late too experience that just be yourself bro

i think about suicide like 90% of the time

I didn't, she cheated on me after 4 months, and cheated with me about a year after.

There is so many romentical quotes about how true love makes you feel young forever.. I mean love can fix love issues for sure. But if you any other issues than that then no.

ya because if your a poor woman love defiantly cant help you with that problem?

Did you ever get called somthing you where not and answered you where?

Coz I don't.

Yes

You're comparing two different things now

You arn't guaranteed to learn these things as a teen. Hell, id say less likely based on the currently divorce rate.
Sure there are times where i wonder if i could had 15-18yo ass but what of it? Other than sex you dont really gain much, and stand to lose a lot more. Once i get passed the idea of sex i feel like i dodged a bullet.

I'm only 19, but I've had a girlfriend for almost a year now and I finally realize how many people struggle to actually find love. I'm one of the few person my age I know who has a nice and serious relationship going.

But yeah, teenage relationships isn't a very special thing. It's cool because you're experiencing things for the first time, but it's bad because you're experiencing things for the first time. My girlfriend and I still have a lot to learn.

I don't know how the dating game for the mid-20s of your social-economic class works, but I'm a typical white, slightly conservative, not rich but went to good school kind of guy. I'm not particularly physically attractive, but I take care of my clothes, my hair, my glasses, my face, I have a nice sense of humor, I like to learn about the people I meet, I'm easy-going but focused, I have good grades, etc.

Basically, I tried and it worked out.

I don't really. You just learn to live with that pain.

It's really TEDious

teenage love is meh, young/mid 20's love is fire tho

I'm a poorfag and I let that always get to me when I was in HS, a younger qt that turned out to be a legit 11/10 but 6/10 back then wanted to be my gf but I rejected her cause her family was wealthy as fuck. How do I even cope with these. That girl is sort of a model by what I see on her ig now.

I still avoid any kind of relationship because of this, not even working cause my parents want me to dedicate myself to study so full time college in stem right now (which can't complain, they want me out of fucking poverty)

Realize that the person you liked probably wasn't for you, and the reason you remember them so fondly is because of your hormones.

you continue righteous in your ways and maintain sobriety. The children will come one day soon instead, as well, and she will be holding up a bottle of white vinegar for the salad and a red thing of vinagrette for the aching she might prescribe this unscented air of distress you have caught yourself in talking to yourself...to us!

I would give up all the memories of my teenage loves.
They make me feel shameful

What I have now in my mid 20s though, I wouldn’t trade for anything.
That’s where the real love is at. Real honest love.

I try not to think about it, just like I try not to think about all the friends I could of have made, worked on my social skills, and gone out and have experiences while in high school, because of my abusive step-dad. God I hope he bites it hard when he dies.

By missing out on adult love

You don't.
No matter what anyone says, it will always bother you. You will always be jealous every time you see a teen couple walk by. And you will never have the required experience to actually find love in your 20s, so you're basically doomed to wizardom anyway.

They were nice and warm. I miss them.

you don't

Teenagers are faggots, and teenage “love” is even worse. They have 0 idea how relationships work. You’re not missing out on much

This honestly. I don't know what everyone ITT is whining about. I never experienced "teenage love" and as far as I know none of my peers got anything special from it, I'm more concerned about the fact that I have not and will not experience romantic love of any kind.

You realize that you've missed out on nothing

I feel like you're lumping in actual TEENage dating (i.e high school) with college and mid 20s dating. Very different ball game. I'd argue that highschool dating is pretty non-essential because the tactics and formalities involved are pretty different than when you're a post-puberty adult with your own income.

You mean those shitty relationships that only exist because you go to the same school as the other person and dies once highschool is over because there was actually 0 effort put in the relationship by both parties? Why would anyone need to cope with missing out on something retarded like that?

But teenage love has the potential to be like 100 times cuter than anything you can experience later on. Same goes for any girls involved. You ever hear of a cute 32 year old? Me neither.

Yes it has the potential, but it's not a high potential. It's a dumb hormone fueled relationship that quickly falls apart once you're out of high school. Even my shortest and worst relationships as an adult have been better than my one long term gf in high school

Probably best that I missed it. Young love is unrealistic and stupid. Speaking for myself, I don't need love.

I had teenage love, and it sucked. Wasn't even that strong, was mostly out of being scared of being alone.
First time I actually felt excited about someone and truly in love was when I was 24.

You guys are not helping OP by lying to him. Teenage love is critical and important. There is no experience that can replace it.

I understand many people posting on this board might have also missed out, and I sympathize, but it doesn't change the reality.

Also this weak excuse that teenage love is "fleeting" or "temporary" doesn't change how incredibly important it is. Your whole life is fleeting and temporary. Don't start with lies just to make yourself feel better.

OP, to give you ACTUAL advice, I think you should learn from this mistake. Why did you miss it? Do you struggle to see what's right in front of you? Open your eyes and third eye a bit, try to live in the present more and be more socially brave. Don't let this mistake repeat during the next phase of your life.

By fucking teenagers in your 20s my dude

You will never love like you did at 17 has been my experience.
If you missed it as a teen you could maybe still get a good feeling from love now.

Looking back on teenage romance is more cringy than anything

ok, it's off-tpoic, but can i ask why?

By having a good relationship now with someone patient enough to deal with my lack of experience.

I think it's a good thing, whenever people tell me about their teenage relationships it's always full of drama, and they almost never last.

Nah.

Op, teenagers don’t know the first thing about relationships. Most think that controlling and abusive tendencies are totally normal, because they haven’t been taught otherwise. And teenagers are incredibly dramatic, you don’t want to have experienced the rage of a teenage girl.

because they think they know politics

Easy, I've had amazing 20s and 30s love. I'm confident and know myself in ways I could never as a teen. I don't feel like I missed out on anything.

By making it all up in your 20s. I see myself more as a late bloomer than someone who missed out.

Shut it Ted

By getting with a teen? Got together with a 15-year old when I was 21 and we're engaged four years later.

Hentai.

This

Teenage love sucked dick.
Like even though I had it I feel like I want to go back and do it right with the right person in the right situation, but that is a fantasy.
Teenage love IS a fantasy, and any moment I wasnt held by that fantasy, I had next to no reason to be in the (only) relationship I had. I love way too deeply and being a teenager only made that worse. Probably the exact thing I hate most about it is that I still feel like how youre describing even though I had it for a few brief moments. Whenever I feel like that though I need to remind myself just how fleeting and unstable that love is, and how immature the person I was projecting romantic fantasies about actually was. Now Im in uni and it seems like nobody gives a shit about romance, just fucking / getting shitfaced, which is a bit sad but it beats the emotional whiplash that teenage love can give you for being a dumbass.

Well, you can’t expect human race to do all right, If you did half right as I did, It’s okay, If you didn’t at least you didn’t bother another human being.
Sure I was clingy, but not manipulatived.

I don't feel like I missed out on anything

Maybe it's because I've generally been rather immature, but I'm glad I did that stuff first at 19 rather than 13 or 14
