    At 18 you are definitely old enough for love. Don't let others say how you will feel.

    I first fell in love in preschool and did not get over her until 7th grade.

    What kind of reaction have you been getting? Might you ask them what they think is an appropriate age (and emotional state)to be able to love another of the opposite sex? If they're nosy, I think the slow approach might be best. Having those that you love, love your sweetie can be great. Are they serious, teasing you, or are you more sensitive to inquiry in front of your family because he's your 1st serious, "I love him," experience? No one wants people to put their love interest under a microscope nor should they have to. I'd say "I respect your opinion, but I have both eyes open; I feel this way now." "Please let this go unless I ask for help." I fell in love (and it was SO real to both of us) at 14. I We married at 22. Neither had dated others. We were married for 23. That's 31 years. I have 4 ! friends that started at 14 or 15. They are still married from 18-38 years married. Their argument may be acceptable if he was slime or something. What parent wouldn't want a nice love relationship for their child? They'll get used to it. If not, have a "nice" talk with the offenders.

    It's not age specific. My friends have been together since they were 15, it's been more than ten years. It's easy for others to be skeptical, but it shouldn't matter what they think or who your love is for.

    You can fall in love at any age. I don't think there's a certain age that you're qualified to be in love. Ignore all the people that criticize. You've got the best thing ever, which is love (:

    When you're not afraid to say it around adults, that's when you know you *are* an adult.

    18 is definitely old enough to be in love, and anyone who is trying to repress you should butt out! Just follow your heart, wherever it leads, and don't listen to anyone else.
