Say what yall want about dating young. If I didn’t have that toxic ass relationship when I was in my teens. I probably would be in a worse relationship in my 20’s. I literally learned so much on what a relationship isn’t and for ME it was a good thing

Nah I think you’ll be okay as long as you take it slow. You’re more emotionally mature so you still know better what you can handle. The biggest thing w dating young is that you’re usually not going to move in together or get pregnant or get married, n those are the three biggest times when a seemingly healthy relationship will turn abusive. As long as you avoid jumping into any of those situations, you should be fine

You might get walked on n mistreated and you might let that slide for too long, but that’s the same that happened to everybody in their first relationships. Every relationship you have, you’re gonna learn and grow from it regardless of when it happens

Yeah, my thing. Always talk to ur friends about stuff and if they say “honey this is a red flag” LISTEN. Journaling about your relationship will help too
