What qualities do you look for in a potential gf?
I look for a girl that is smart, has a sense of humor, is loving, caring, and respectful.

When it comes to relationships, who do you go to?  
My parents are the people who influence me when it comes to my relationships. I look to them for advice and guidance.

What challenges come in high school relationships?
I think that teens have a lot to deal with as far as negative peer pressure and just not having a good support system around them to help them make the tough decisions.

Do you think dating abuse happens among teens today? What type(s) of abuse do you see?
Yes. I see a lot of manipulation and emotional abuse among teens—one person taking advantage of the other person.

What issues do you see in the media, specifically in how they portray marriage and relationships among teens?
I think the media does show some of the problems in relationships. For example, there are a lot of shows about teenage pregnancies currently.  The media does make it seem as though those problems are able to be easily resolved, or dealt with, when in reality they are not.

I BELIEVE IN RESPECT
