High school students have plenty to be stressed about. For a start, they’re teenagers with all the emotional difficulties, such as mood swings, which this age brings. Students also face pressure to succeed academically to get into the college they want and may be expected to perform at extracurricular activities such as sports or music too. A relationship introduces another source of pressure into a students’ life, taking up more of his time and potentially adding to emotional upset in the case of relationship problems. As noted in the essay “Effects of Romantic Relationships on Academic Performance” by Matthew E. Kopfler, pupils involved in relationships are often subject to more stress as a result. The presence of a boyfriend or girlfriend in a student’s life can have a positive effect on that individual, providing the relationship is stable. The individuals in a relationship, even one based around a high school, can become very close, which in turn allows each partner to support.
