My name is Foxy and I'm 19 years old. I think I would be
an asset to the Love and Learn Panel because I would present
the readers with a younger view point.
It seems that the other panelists are already "adults" whereas
I am still a teenager. In my opinion, the younger readers
would be able to relate to my experiences and they would benefit
from the advice of someone who can also relate better to their
situations.
While my love life has not been a rollercoaster ride and
by no means have I experienced all that there is to experience,
I do believe that I have a firm handle on what most teens
are going through and how they are feeling.
As I have gone through my own relationships I have slowly
begun to understand the choices that I have seen other people
make which, before, I may have disapproved of and looked down
upon. I have a very open mind about relationships which brings
me to my philosophy on them.
I believe that a relationship is whatever the two people
involved in it define it to be. I don't think that there should
be any guidelines or parameters, as to what defines a relationship.
I do believe that a relationship should be based on honesty,
trust, and mutual respect. As long as those characteristics
are involved almost any relationship has potential to be a
really great thing.
I think people, especially the younger readers would find
my advice very useful as I have had many different experiences
in relationships and if I haven't gone through it, one of
my 6 best girlfriends most definitely has and I have been
there every step of the way.
I have been through or seen it all; the good, the bad, and
the ugly. Most often, I am also considered the mom of our
group of friends. I am the one that everyone comes to, to
talk about what's going on and what I think they should do
about it. In a way it is the prefect training for the position
as a panelist for Love & Learn.
