Everyone knows that high school is full of drama: it wouldn’t be the same without it. However, there is in fact a point where that drama gets taken too far. Hearts are broken, feelings are hurt, relationships are destroyed: all because of one stupid decision. It’s the thought that what you have simply isn’t good enough; the idea that you need something further; the decision to cheat. These are the years where we’re all supposed to live life to the fullest, right? We’re supposed to let loose, go crazy, and have a good time. But does having a good time automatically entail hooking up? It seems that too many teenagers feel the need to ‘get with’ someone in order to have fun: even if that someone is in a committed relationship. More often than not, someone will cheat on their significant other because they aren’t getting ‘what they need’ from their partner. In my opinion, the solution is simple. Tell your partner that you’re physically incapable of controlling those raging hormones of yours before you close the relationship deal; that way, they can get out while they still have the chance. If they so choose to stay with you anyway, then at least you can say, “I warned you.” In all honesty, I don’t really see the appeal in cheating. Maybe you’re someone who thrives on the knowledge that you’re doing something you shouldn’t be doing. Come on now, think about it: why did you get into a relationship with this person in the first place? Because you like them. Why would you want to hurt someone that you like? Picture yourself in their place. How would you feel if your boyfriend or girlfriend was kissing someone else? Those lips are for you, and you only! No other scum of any kind should be allowed to go anywhere near them. So why do you allow scum on yours? In any case, cheating is not the answer. Teenagers have hormones; I get it. But hurting someone, especially someone you cared about at one point, is far too high of a price to pay in order to satisfy those hormones. Think about it.
