Gabrielle Jackson on love advice for a 10 year old boy


“Go for it,” I would say.
“Tell her you love her. Write her a song, a poem, a story. Bring her flowers. Be persistent. Tell her all the things you love about her and how she makes you feel.
“Hold nothing back!”
When the inevitable heartache comes, but not a moment before, I will tell him this:
“Love is always worth the heartache.
“Do something with the pain. Use it up, get it out.
“Write another poem about how you feel, write a song or a story. They will probably be better than the ones you wrote when you were in love anyway.
“Heartache is a painful, but necessary, part of living life to the fullest.
“Rejoice in love and enjoy the heartache.
“I know I’m getting carried away here, darling, but you’ll thank me one day.
“Always love and love being in love. Love the most you can and never, ever be afraid of it.”
The same advice applies if it’s a boy he loves.
