Dating advice for middle schoolers

Answer 1

Some people in 6th,7th,and 8th grade would love to date. But some people who never had a boyfriend/girlfriend will say dating is stupid and what's the point. You can date like dances and stuff that can be a date or an after school program. also if ur parents don't mind u can go over the guys/chics house and convince his/her parents to let you go to the movies or get his parents or her parents to get to know each other. i know its corny kinda but actually it will work out. maybe they might go to a restaurant or the movies together.

The MOST IMPORTANT thing to know in middle school is that this relationship is not forever. So, don't do anything that will last forever, like having sex and getting pregnant. Keep it simple and social like: going for a bike ride together; going to a school sporting event or concert. I don't suggest going to a movie because that's not a place where you can talk and get to know each other better.

Don't let him/her go to far because you most likely won't be together "forever."

I know it sounds rude, but it is the truth. I found a good book called Dateable.

I personally don't think it's an appropriate time for middle schoolers to date. They are not mature enough and responsible. Besides, enjoy the time you have young while you hang out with friends and family! A boyfriend/girlfriend takes up a lot of time. However, if you feel that a relationship is right for you at this time, I guess you could try it out.
