A couple of weeks ago, my brother discussed the topic of teenage relationships with me. Due to my recent break up, I was in a bad state. My brother decided to teach me the lesson of boys, which approximately went as follows:
1. Boys ranging from the age of fifteen to nineteen only care about sex.
2. Boys ranging from the age of fifteen to nineteen will do anything to get a girl in bed with her.
3. Boys ranging from the age of fifteen to nineteen do not have hearts; they only have penises.
4. Boys ranging from the age of fifteen to nineteen do not know how to love.
5. Boys ranging from the age of fifteen to nineteen will only break a girl's heart once he's gotten to the promise land, her vagina.I'm curious what other men have to say about this.
What were you like when you were between the ages of fifteen and nineteen? Was sex the only thing you thought about?

There are exceptions. I'm 19 and I'm hoping to build a serious relationship with someone I know. I'm abstinent, I don't drink and I've actually turned down sexual advances from a few women. I practice some form of chivalry (opening doors, pulling out chairs, and a couple of other things).More importantly I strive to respect everyone as they deserve, but especially women.
That being said, its safe to say that based off of my own perspective, there aren't too many of my kind out there at my age.
Lol, wow, you're brother is funny & some of these are kinda true. I know a few guys in that age frame who want a serious relationship, not just sex.
lol.
It's real talk.
That applies to the majority. There is always the exception.
Haha well I guess your brother is good at being honest. But I've always found the ones who aren't just in it for sex.
My boyfriend doesn't even care if we have sex, unless I want it. I never get pressured.
don't generalize us by our worst specimens.
@FOXHOUND_HQ@xanga - My hero!
To be safe, I'd hold these points as true. It's very rare to find a teenage guy who really wants you and if you find the one who does he should be willing to wait a little bit.
I'm silly and immature when I was in that group age... well, I still am
I almost wholeheartedly agree with this. I have met a couple of exceptions to these rules though,
Having dated boys ranging 14 to 19, I'd have to say this is very true. I've only had sex with one of my past boyfriends, and he is 19.
I'm 18 and I think about sex almost everyday, but Most of the time I have other things to worry about >.>
I'm not one to be so weak against my own emotions that I would do anything to get in bed with a girl
Love is relevant, its different for everyone, how can you be so biased to say people don't know how to love, when the term itself has no definite definition.
Heartbreak is something that cannot be pre-determined, I'm positive most heartbreaks in history were unintended.
But instead of writing all this..
Exceptions exists, and therefore you're wrong.
well, i say none of the five apply to me. honestly...
I have to disagree. Sure boys think about sex alot (that doesn't change with age really) but it's not the only thing guys want. Guys look for lots of things that girls look for too, like companionship and intimacy. Boys can care for a girl even after sex, though I would argue that kids in their teens don't understand what love really is for either sex.
In fact, I've found that after I've slept with a girl, I've become all the more caring. Then again, I'm a man now and might not fully appreciate what I was like when I was a young lad =P
Between the ages of 15-19 I didn't date a single person. I was more interested in music, comic books, and hanging out with my friends. I definitely thought about it, but it wasn't a big priority. I was more interested in actually getting a date. That didn't pan out and has yet to, ha ha.
can you ask your brother about the 20-25 age group. (college, partying, women, better live it up before i get married days). lol i would love to hear about that part.
LMAOOO!.... "the promised land"
..
that was a funny response but it was just a generalization..despite the fact that there is in fact a large majority of teenage boys like that, that isn't everyone..and plus, who said that girls were all that innocent?just cause we are the fairer sex doesn't mean it's ok that we can get away with things as vulgar as whoring or cheating..i know for a fact that there are exceptions. this is true for the majority of teenage boys, but i think there are some that can actually love at this stage in time. yes, it's rare, but it is possible. you need to find a guy and get to know him really well. my boyfriend has never pressured me for sex. he only wants it if i do, so yes, teenage boys can be respectful and caring.
sometimes :P
haha thank goodness i didn't have a love life in high school.
@WhiteNinja89@xanga - Exactly. Generalisations are an excellent way to describe a large body of people, but to make such assertions... that's ridiculous. What kills me is that it came from your brother!
-.-
Lots of guys may seem that way, but just as many aren't. The jerks are typically remembered more easily than the guys who were just okay.
woot i got me a rare guy [:
I must have skipped adolescence, because I didn't care for sex, until I had a girlfriend. And I wasn't quite interested in getting anybody near me into bed. I was more about getting the heck out of high school alive.
I guess this is overall true, but there are a lot of exceptions. My phase of only caring about sex lasted only the years of 14 and 15, so I really went against this idea. But, yeah, teenage guys in general aren't really after serious relationships, it seems like. But, you can't judge everyone the same and you definitely can't judge a book by its cover.
My boyfriend isin't like that =D
He's 17
