Discussion Teenage love

[quins]

A time in which adolescents discover young love, discover their own bodies and share in gauche movements and kisses, "all experiences that I've never had, which I mourn as if orphaned by them."

Have you experienced teenage love? The alcohol is wearing thin, as a forty-seven-year-old who'd never once "shared in" another world unabstracted from the flesh, I need something to fuel the binge.

I never even hugged any one. Missed out on the whole thing. I was in love a few times, once in particular I will never forget, but it was all in my head. Too ugly and awkward.

No, I was late to the party and then, I've only ever experienced painful, unrequited limerence. I don't really mourn for it so much now though- thankfully.

Almost, I can relate to that sense of loss. I experienced a brief moment of what felt like a possible young love. I mourn what could've been. It felt like we got close but he was killed by someone, and well it was nice while it lasted it was so short. I understand that feeling of being orphaned from those experiences.

No, although is a little weird because i even had the chances and like 3 people confessed at me but i did not want to at the moment and i knew that i was just not ready and it would be stupid to initiate a relationship when i never felt anything and could not feel anything with them, also i was virtually asexual and had too much mental problems already.
What i mourn is the want of romance, or even having crushes and any of that and all of that. I feel so detached from the world and humanity. And i feel that if i ever get that feeling simply will no be the same, honestly anything while older than 20 years seems worthless, so i don't care if i ever will have a relationship, or will develop feelings or anything because the only worthwhile ones never happened.

Yea I have experienced that as my first relationship started late into when I was 16 tho I wish I never went into one cus before any relationship I didn't desire it that much but now I require to not feel empty with life due to everything else not comparing to a relationship however being in a relationship is still difficult for me cus of fear of abandonment and paranoia of doing anything wrong. For me no matter what I do, I am going to suffer in some way. That first break up and honesty broken me. I wish I stayed the loner I was.
