Ah, young love. It's a time in life filled with excitement, passion, and endless possibilities. As thrilling as young adult relationships can be, they can also be incredibly complex and challenging to navigate.

Whether you're in a relationship or looking for one, it's essential to understand the common issues and mistakes that can arise, so you can create a strong foundation for a fulfilling and healthy partnership.

In this article, I forsake the sacred and jump into the deep about young adult relationships by interviewing a friend. (Yes, I have a friend, somewhere.) This friend did not want to be named, so we’ll just call them Me1.

Me wants to share their experiences to illuminate the minds of young people contemplating romance, dating and things much bigger than them and why even after all that adult dating sucks.

In this article, we discuss:

  • Dating and healthy romantic relationships.

  • Television and teenagers.

  • Losing your virginity.

  • Living arrangements.

  • #Metoo.

  • Relationship pitfalls.
