It’s completely understandable to feel unsure about high school relationships, especially when it seems like looks take center stage. At 16, there’s a lot of pressure to fit in and find that kind of connection. However, it’s important to remember that high school is just one chapter in your life.
Relationships can be worth it, but they should never overshadow your friendships or personal growth. Enjoying time with friends is incredibly valuable—it can lead to strong bonds and unforgettable memories. Focus on being yourself and developing your interests.
