listen to all this advice, what they\'re sayin is sooo true! i got a bf when i was like 12 and we went out for 7 months, it was stupid, I broke up with him because I realized that while i was with him he was bringing me down and i felt farther away from God and i was pretty much hurt at the end of the whole thing. dating now gets you absolutely [u]nowhere[/u] and you\'ll get tired of goin through the same thing and then youll start doing other things to spice up your relationships, things that God would like us to save till marriage. my point is save dating till your older to understand why you should date [to get a mate and get married]. don\'t think your ready to get married, are ya?? plus if you find it hard to wait, pray, God is always waiting to hear from ya, aiight? hope that helps...;)
