When I was in the fourth grade, I worried about what hot lunch for the day was and whether I wrote "adventure" correctly on my spelling test. Today, kids as young as 10 are sweating over first kisses and getting boyfriends. Childhood is ending sooner and sooner with every generation, and it's especially saddening to think about.
We have plenty of time in the future to worry about liking guys or girls. Life is complicated enough with school, peer pressure and family issues. Why add on something as stressful as a relationship onto all of that? And at that age, is it even allowed to be considered a relationship? I'm 16, and I know I'm still not ready for that kind of commitment.
IMTO, don't get into dating too early. It isn't worth it. A guy you meet in the sixth grade is more than likely not going to be "The One." Enjoy your childhood while you still have it.
TTYL.
