Recently, while chatting with friends, the topic of a girl's first romantic relationship came up, and it suddenly seemed quite intriguing. Honestly, first love is a special experience for everyone, especially for girls. The mix of anticipation and fear they feel is both heart-wrenching and endearing.
I remember a friend once told me that when she first fell in love, she completely changed. She, who used to be very straightforward, suddenly became shy and even blushed when holding hands with her boyfriend. She also loved sharing; she wanted to tell him about every interesting thing she saw immediately, even taking pictures of a cute puppy on the street to send to him. She said she was like a "sharing maniac" back then, eager to let him know every detail of her life.
This behavior is actually quite common. Girls often become particularly sensitive and delicate during their first love. They place great importance on rituals, yearn for romantic scenarios, and might even feel that their boyfriend doesn't love them anymore over trivial matters. As someone in the comments section said, "They often cry secretly, perhaps over small things, feeling that their boyfriend doesn't love them anymore." These emotional fluctuations are because they care too much about the relationship, fearing they are not doing well enough.
However, while first love is beautiful, it can also be hurtful. A netizen commented, "Those who have experienced this are afraid of giving their heart to the wrong person. Don't put the other person on too high a pedestal, that's the truth." This really struck a chord with me. Indeed, the wholehearted devotion in first love can sometimes make one vulnerable. Because they care too much, they are more easily hurt.
Another netizen shared her experience: "I'm in my first relationship, almost seven months now, but I don't feel like I have a strong desire to share. Sometimes I remember and send him a message, other times I'd rather watch a show or chat with my girlfriends and forget to message him." This is also quite normal. Everyone expresses themselves differently; some prefer frequent interactions, while others prefer maintaining a certain distance. The important thing is for both to find a comfortable way of interacting.
Speaking of first love, boys also have many "first-time" behaviors. An interesting comment in the section reads: "The behavior of boys in their first relationship, just look at the group of 'reposters' in the comments." Haha, this comment is quite amusing. Indeed, boys can also be at a loss during their first love, not knowing how to express their feelings or doing awkward things because they are too nervous.
Overall, first love is a sweet yet complex experience. It teaches us how to love and makes us aware of the various challenges in love. Whether it's a girl or a boy, the behaviors during first love are part of growing up. The important thing is to learn to love ourselves while loving others.
Finally, to those experiencing their first love: May your sincerity be met with sincerity, and may your love remain as pure as at the beginning. Even if there are bumps along the way, don't forget to enjoy the pure beauty. After all, first love happens only once; once missed, it can never be retrieved.
