In the movie Romeo and Juliet, Romeo talks about how he has never seen a girl as beautiful as Juliet when he first lays eyes upon her. This means that he had found her beautiful and doesn’t necessarily love her. As a teenager, love is such a new abstraction and point of curiosity that teens do foolish things just to…

Once you experience something of such great significance, it is hard to let that go and move on.

Love is often portrayed as a beneficial and a desiredwanted emotion because it bears the results of feeling good. When seen from the outside, only the good parts of relationships involving love are seen, such as others holding hands and spending quality time together.
