As adolescents mature physically, they become curious about and fascinated by romantic relationships, yearning for the experience of youthful love. Love and romance are common interests among teenagers, and forming intimate relationships provides opportunities to practice handling interpersonal dynamics, personal growth, and navigating breakup challenges. This study aims to explore the developmental aspects of adolescent intimate relationships across three stages: initiation, maintenance, and termination. Using a snowball sampling method, three adolescents with experience in intimate relationships were selected for semi-structured interviews, analyzed using a constant comparative method. Key findings include: (1) Experiences in the initiation stage involve subjective perceptions (internal and external evaluations), family environment, pursuit behaviors, and motivations; (2) Experiences in the maintenance stage cover interaction patterns, the honeymoon phase, complementary thinking, problem-solving approaches, shared values, friend networks, emotional conflicts, and mood changes; (3) Experiences in the termination stage involve causes of pre-breakup events, psychological adjustment, and lessons learned for personal growth from the relationship. |
