I agree with this. I "feel in love" at 14 and I'm still with that person. It is not at all dictated by your age. :|

Age is not irrelevant. It's just as silly to claim that it is irrelevant as it is to claim it's impossible to feel strong feelings at certain ages.

Age and experience tend to be at least somewhat related. At 13, definitions of these words "love" "hate" "enemy" are generally still rather, well, adolescent. I tend to believe that everything in the world is relevant, meanings and so forth, but that does not mean that words like that should be thrown around.

Like you said, it's a bit cliche. By the sounds of it, it's very unlikely this person is bad enough to be hated, or called a "worst enemy" (combing hands through hair, rubbing forehead). Kids need to try not to use such words and block themselves into roles so young. Even as a kid, I never used words like "worst enemy", because I knew I didn't really have an enemy, being so young.

I just generally dislike how people throw these words around like they mean nothing. Blah blah blah.

Alright, I understand. Perhaps 'irrelevant' wasn't the right word. Perhaps I should say "less relevant" or something (though it certainly has less of a simple ring =P). True, a lot of younger people will exaggerate or have less experience, but I definitely had the person who straight-up said they were too young to feel these things.

haha yeah, it's kind of a technical issue, but "less relevant" fits better in my opinion.

I definitely see your point there, though. People of all ages CAN generate these intense feelings, but I do think generally it's an exaggeration for people SO young, is all.

Why does your worst enemy rub your forehead? Why does it have to be so cliche as to be your "worst enemy"? Why is this a problem? Why don't you just break that friend/enemy dichotomy? Life has grey areas. They obviously don't hate you.

Think of why you're supposed to hate him.
What did he do?
If you're supposed to hate him because other people said so; then why listen to them? You're your own person.
And if this is the girls and boys should hate each other thing that kids do... Trust me, it just shoots out the window when you're older.
I will say that you're young. You may not fully understand love.
But then, who says that you don't?
You might be in love. But you might just be emotional.
But if you really do want to love him why hold back on that?
Why choose hate over love?
Just be careful, don't do anything stupid.
If you don't want to do something he wants you to do, tell him so. :shrug: Again; you're your own person.
And if you have any doubts about anything, go to a teacher, student co-ordinater, a parent (yours or a friend's), or local librarian even. They may not seem like the sort of people you go to about this stuff; but they're people too. And I've found them extremely helpful with the most unusual things. :)

If you want to love him, do so. But don't jump into anything too quickly.

So what if she's 13?
I think it's not about age, it's more about what you really feel, if she's really convinced she loves this guy, then she does! So what if she's 13? The problem here is that she thinks she's "supposed" to hate this guy and not "love" him and she's probably confused.. not that she's 13

So, ST, I don't think you really hate this guy, it sounds like you like/love/feel attracted to him. Now, what I wonder is why you're supposed to hate him.. can't you just like him? From the tiny little stuff you tell us here, he doesn't seem so bad, maybe you should try to just get along?

Probably infatuation. There's nothing wrong with you, but I'm afraid your way too young to feel such things.

Too young to feel love and hate? I can't disagree more.
