   I disagree with your point that teenagers are not mature enough to have girl or boy friend. You have point out that there are short-term relationship trend within teenagers. I think even within adult the short-term relationship still happens. For example, it is very often for us to see in the news that actors or singers have break up with their girl or boy friends within a week. Also, the divorce rate has increased every year around the world, for instant in NZ one third of marriage are ending in divorce. For those people who allow to get married, they are adults, and they are mature enough to know what they want and who they want to be with. If the short term relationship happens within the adults, why should we tell teenagers that they are not mature enough to have relationship with the girls or boys that they like?
   The formula that you give for the short term relationship ‘love- get bored-break up-started again’, in the second stage when you say ‘get bored’, I think this is not the reason why teenagers break up, the main reasons for them to break up it is because when they are together they know more about each other, and because of different habit, different point of view, different thought, etc. Which make them to feel that they are not right for each other, and eventually break up.

   I agree with the increasing trend of casual relationships but it is true for adults as well, not just teenagers. I think the media is responsible for this trend. A lot of movies these days involve characters with friends with benefits relationships and in real life, celebreties are displaying examples of these short term relationships.

   Hey Luke,
   i really like this topic, it's cool!
   nowsday, a growing number of divoice rate caused by the lacke of self-awareness.
   i think in order to keep a happniess and stable marriage, people should be a real independent adult and have responsible. as parents, they should guide their child find a correct way. the young should know themselves more accurately. when the shorot-term relationship finish, their heart will hurt deeply.
   good job luke~

   It's mostly hearsay, there are large sections of your ideas with no links to support them. It makes it seem like it is all just your opinion, and your opinions on there own are not concrete, is hard to figure out what you are actualy able to back up.
   Also you grammer is wrong to the point of making it hard to read, however since you are talking about love I actualy find I can understand. comments like "this is no" make sense when discussing love.
   I loooove your closing line and think it would be a helpful message for many kids to hear. However, throughout your actual argument your point gets confused and it makes it feel rambley.

   Hey Luke.
   The first thing I have to commend you on is your responses to the other comments. It's nice to see someone who can react positively to a negative comment like Sophie's, and can bother to thank those who liked it. Good on you.
   
   As for your grammar, as English is (I'm assuming) your second or third language, I have no problems. It was understandable, and in my opinion that's enough for a blog. ;)
   
   I agree with your points about young people getting married based on false ideals, or unrealistic dreams, without thinking it through. However, Sophie did make a good point also about this applying to adults as well, sometimes as much as to teenagers. Perhaps next time (if there is a next time) you could try focusing on how divorce is becoming more common and/or how marriage is becoming less popular among people in general, not just young people.
   
   Nevertheless, It was good. The anecdote (or story) about your friend was good and illustrated the point well.
   
   Well done!

   BTW, I meant "I have no problems with your level of grammar". Oops. My own grammar needs a bit of work.
