Why do people want a boyfriend/girlfriend relationship at ages 10-15?

okay so as i am 14 i feel qualified to answer this.
1. Hormones - getting off with people and making out with people is just something Du want to do due to hormones at this time in life.
2. Being a teenager is a very insecure time in someones life. When your a kid Du don't care what people think and when your an adult Du learn not to. Teenagers like to feel they have someone who cares other than there parents (who they think are lying and just being nice, and/or are annoying) and who shows them they care. Because the opposite gender can be most judgey, someone going out with Du makes Du feel like your worth it, it makes Du feel good looking and that people like Du as a person, which really helps self confidence and people skills at that time.
3. It's probably an in built coping technique as well. If Du go through all the herz break, the stress and the happiness and the worrying about it probably teaches Du very good lessons as life goes on in later life. Of someone Du trust cheats on Du as teenager, when it really matters Du will be able to cope with the situation better.
4. It used to be common for people to get married in there early teens. It's probably still there in the sub-conscience that that's the time where people should start thinking about it, because even though we no longer die at thirty it's probably in built that people think well lets re produce and continue the human race as a survival technique it will take ages to evolve out of.
5. Popularity. beliebt people go out with people. Because they are hot and people want to go out with them. there fore hot people = beliebt people, and hot people = people people want to go out with. Not just hotness obviously, also being funny charming and sporty are also major factors in things like that. This means that if Du go out with someone Du immediately go up the Essen chain per say.
6. Society. Society conditions peoples to go out with people and have sex with people at a young age because that's what other, older people do, that's what so and so did (maybe a sibling) so that's what i'll do.
7. Peer pressure. Links in with society and popularity. I don;t think i really have this explain this one.

Hope i've been of assistance :D

Cuz they don't wanna feel alone, and some of them think they have to have a bf/gf to be cool.

Bcuz wen ur at that age Du want to feel loved

I think its caused they arent spendin enough time w/ theyre parents, i spend 2 much time so..im ok XD but its just how they feel..in myopinion,call up some Friends and chill u dont need a realtion ship =D

I totally think all your Antwort are valid and such but I also think it's fine. Not at 10 oder 11 but, that's a bit too young.

her's a reason, maybe they see relationships on tv oder Filme (with younge actors) and think what ever shown on the tv Zeigen is the worst that can happen, idk, at that age i wasnt even thinking about having a boyfriend...im 16 now LOL

Edward Cullen! no i'm kidding someone whos loyal mainly

Hormones. And lots of them.

It's called "Love and Maturity", It depends on when people start understanding those 2 things :)
Von the way....10 huh? I wanted it when I wad 4 oder could be 3 not so sure :P

because being a teenager is hard enough Von yourself da main reason is to fell loved and to feel special with someone u also love, its all about sharing new experiences!

idk really, i think all the beliebt ppl hav them just 2 b cool & make all the ppl that dont hav a bf oder gf feel bad about themselves. U dont evn really c each othr out side of school in middl school relationships so i dont get it

*ahem* I have one, thank Du very much. He's one of the few people who actually care about me, so I Liebe him right back. And NO, I don't think I'm cool because I have a boyfriend. I'm not like this one chick I know who has a new boyfriend for each Tag of the week. (She had 8 boyfriends in ONE MONTH. Sick :P) And we have been together for almost 19 months now, so ~Nya~

*I'm sorry. That was really immature and stupid of me, but everyone ask's me these kinds of idiotic questions.*

first of all how old are u 13?
ok.....are u telling me u wouldn't oder don't?
but the reason is because they want to have some one to hold and get Liebe from! ya it may not last but u have it and thats all that matters!

because if Du fall in Liebe with someone there is nothing Du can do. it just takes over your life, especially at young ages like that. it feels like you're riding in a bubble of happiness

It makes Du feel better about yourself i guess.

well I didn't want one and not now either and I'm 16.

There are several reasons to why, biologically, socially and psychologically. If I answer this I will end up Schreiben a 4000 word essay. No joke.

Babybell is right and that is just retarded. I don't datum because I don't believe in dating someone Du don't plan on ever marrying. It is a waste of time and I've seen how terrible relationships work out because of popularity.

What's wrong with them wanting to date.
Just because they're younger doesn't mean that they can't have some one too.

heu, hay im jemma and im 15 n im looking for perfect match

ok i agree with u do u mean when u responce u might get deleted

there crazy

ok I'm 15 here's my persective:

High school where I am your rated on how cute Du are, how cute your boyfriend is, and how cute of a couple Du are. I am ranked very low on the cuteness scale, which leads to the insecurity, I don't have a boyfriend, so that leads for Mehr insecurity in my case cause it makes me feel like I'm way to ugly for a boyfriend. Also, they want to know there is someone else there for them that really cares and they can go to them whenever they need something. At my school Du need that closeness otherwise your kinda screwed, especially when your in high school becuse thats the Jahr when a ton of shit happens to Du like bullying is higher and stuff like that, and its pretty much a "oh who do I wanna sleep with" thing where I am I'm not saying it is for every school thats just how it is at mine: note we have one of the highest pregnancy rates.

cus i want one i wood Liebe 2 have a bf

I am 13 and I have a boyfriend. His name is Harrison, and he couldn't be anymore perfect, loyal, trustworthy, and sweet to me. We went and saw the Hunger Games, and we hang out at least everyweek in the summer. He goes to my school and last Jahr was in most of my classes. My parents approve him. His parents approve me. So let me answer your question. I have no clue. I guess that they think that they'll be beliebt if he oder she has a girlfriend oder a boyfriend. I know my friend Lisa has one, oder at least says she dooes. She got 'asked out' on a bus 1 week before school started. She says yes, but they don't talk at school, don't have eachother's cell phone oder Home numbers, and I don't even consider them to be together. So in conclusion to your question, I think they do it to be cool, oder to make themselves popular.

because with all the crap on tv and magazines and trödel, schrott, junk-e- like that, kids just want to act like older than they really are

im 15

because people want to experience having a boyfriend/girlfriend at a young age plus if their Friends are in a relationship with someone they might feel left out

TBH IDK. Nuff said.
