How seriously do you take a high school relationship?

As serious as you need to.

Know that fewer than 2% of people marry their high school sweetheart. Knowing this the odds are not with you that anything lasting will come of this. But that doesn't the feelings involved may not be real. High school kids are young and figuring things out. Just don't do anything foolish that will be lifetime lasting like getting pregnant, or potentially an STD.

As serious as you would want. It’s as valid and fulfilling as any other relationship.

Not very. I think I know only a few HS relationships that survived high school. They usually found someone better in college.

Very! At the time. Then you figure out later they were not really as serious as you thought.

I didn't date until after high school. It is pointless to date young. Children have no business being sexual or romantic dating before you are ready to marry just adds baggage to you.

When you’re young and not used to dating and never had a girlfriend you probably take it very seriously. I know I would cause I’m old school

I never had it but I would have wanted that relationship to be a married level commitment
