Well, the book is about a girl who loses her virginity at 16. She's in love with her boyfriend, and she's convinced she will be forever. But then, she starts having feelings for another guy. It's truthful, because when you're so young you don't don't what love is. She wasn't going to love him forever.

"She wasn't going to love him forever."

Well, of course not, because it's a fictional story; and if she had, it wouldn't have fit the book's plot.

In real life, you never know. My grandmother was wed at 17 to my grandfather after my mother was conceived, and they stayed married until my grandfather's death.

I am currently re-involved with my "first" (I was also her "first"). I was 16, she was 15 at the time. We are now 48 and 47.

Throughout history, all over the world, people have married in their teens. The fact of someone's teenaged status doesn't preclude him or her from loving someone forever...it is no different today.
