I've only been with my man for three months, and yes, this is young love. We're both 18, but he and I honestly have not loved anyone as much as we do each other. Although, I am going to school in SF and he stays in LA, so it's a long distance relationship, until he visits and I finish semesters. We talk every night, nights I don't have class, we do not sleep. The thing is, lately we've been arguing a little more than I had hoped for. Over simple things, but things that still bother us. I feel somewhat that I am not as interested in him anymore, but at the same time, I can not imagine my life being without him. Will I get over this? Is it just a phase? I do love him, just some days more than others.
@RiotAllison,
I think the answer is, you're 18.
And, long distance screws with most relationships -- and ones that haven't have some time behind them are screwed with the most -- so this is normal. I used to travel 200 - 250 days/year for work, and I'd find myself needing a little while to reconnect to my husband when I came home, as life had flown by on both our ends and we weren't exactly on the same page.
Of course you love him, he is special to you. He has a special place in your heart.
The question is: do you want a love that tries to sustain itself, long distance , at age 18?
How about an agreement to date others and if - and when - you see each other, see what happens.
