Er, most people were dating in my school, and I went to a private, Catholic-run (nuns and everything) all-girls high school. It was even worse in the public schools. Public schools, if you aren't dating, there's something wrong with you.

My first love was my high school sweetheart, and it's relatively common in my neck of the woods (Great Lakes region of the U.S.).

Besides, something like this is focused on those who fantasize about things like soulmates and finding that one perfect person for the rest of your life. Sixteen-year-olds, on the whole, are a lot less cynical and inclined to believe such is possible. They haven't been in the adult world yet, so they aren't playing the game for the potentially horrifying realities. They're in it for non-offensive fluff.

At least, that's my take on it, as someone who enjoys the "arranged marriage" trope.

"Public schools, if you aren't dating, there's something wrong with you."

Depends on what country you're from or whether or not people care, anon.

Also, your statement on 16 year olds is bs. "Less cynical?" You've never spoken to a white male, have you? Hell, teenagers are some of the most cynical people out there, even if they're naive in life. Just go look at Reddit or Tumblr and then you'll see.

In my high school, it seemed to be about 50/50 between people who were dating or had dated and those who hadn't. Also, not everyone dated someone from the same school or talked about it much, so there were people who were dating but it wasn't obvious to people unless they said something. Some of my friends dated and some didn't. No one thought I was weird for not having a boyfriend, although considering how bad my skin was, I don't think anyone was surprised.
