Miley Cyrus Reminds Us That Teenagers Are Idiots About Love

Miley Cyrus is 17 years old, so it makes sense that she hasn’t exactly figured out the whole dating game. Or, you know, not-game. The unfortunate  thing about that is that she makes statements to the press about her boyfriend Liam Hemsworth like, “I think when you’re trying to play it cool and you’re like, ‘Oh, I won’t text back for like the next hour,’ that’s when you know it’s more serious. You have no idea how many times I was like, ‘Oh he called. I’m not going to call back tomorrow.’ When it gets confusing and you’re over thinking it, you must really like someone.”

At the press junket for her movie The Last Song, Miley talked about her co-star turned boyfriend quite a bit. She also said, “My parents are a little loco. We have five [kids] and my mom and my dad and my grandma plus like my 10,000 dogs – so if you love me after you see my lifestyle then you’re good. You’re a keeper.”

I don’t know if anyone’s taking dating advice and life tips from Miley Cyrus, but let me throw this out there to those who are considering it: If you’re playing games with a guy so that he thinks you’re cool, you don’t really like him. Or rather, you’re terrified of finding out that he doesn’t like you. Most classic mistake in the game. And don’t call your parents “loco” in an interview when you’re 17. It makes you look like a spoiled brat.

  • I honestly couldn’t care less about Miley Cyrus’ dating advice, but I am SO effing sick of people thinking teenagers are just stupid kids who don’t know anything about anything at all. I like you, Molls, I don’t care if most people was stupid, immature, naïve or spoiled as a teen, but there are plenty of teenarges who are none of that.

    I know there are many teenagers out there who are like that and think they already have figured life out, but there are some of us that actually find annoying to be called stupid all the time.

    I am 17, and I know I still have A LOT to learn, A LOT of things to figure out, but that doesn’t make stupid, or as you like to say it “idiot”.

    Maybe I’m a little bitchy or taking this too seriously, but it’s something that’s always pissed me off. YES, I am a freaking teenager. NO, I’m not an idiot.

      • I’m sorry if I made any mistake spelling any word, english is not my native language.

        And no, dear, I am NOT an idiot. Neither did I say Molls called me one. But I am sick of people thinking that just because you’re a teen you’re either stupid or naive or an idiot.

      • You did quite well, considering you have a different native language.

        I, personally, am sick of all the teenagers who think they AREN’T stupid, naive, or idiots. When you’re 17? You can’t dream that you’re really as fucking stupid as you actually are. When you’re 25, you’ll look back and thing “…oh, okay, I get it now”. Chill and enjoy being a teenager. Be stupid while it’s still vaguely socially acceptable. If you wish to continue this argument, see me in ten years, when you might have a chance of making some fucking sense.

      • And guess what, when you’re 45 you will look back on what you said at 25 and say “what an idiot.” Plus you probably won’t even remember what you said at 17. LOL

      • Oh my god, you are right! I am such an idiot. How do I know that? Well, I commited the sin of being 17 years old and refusing to be called an “idiot” just because of my age. Wow.. I am such an idiotic loser, and I guess all my 17-year-old friends are idiots as well… Yay for us! ;-)

      • I think people are mistaking the inexperienced for idiots, and that’s not right. The fact of the matter is that wisdom comes with age, maturity and experience, and teenagers aren’t there yet. I’m 33, and yes, I do look back on my younger years and think “Wow, I had no idea”. And in 33 more years I’m sure I’ll do the same.

      • I completely agree with you, and that’s exactly what I tried to say. I don’t mind to be called “inexperienced”, but thinking that being inexperienced means that you’re an idiot is more than I can handle. I know that wisdom comes with age, maturity and experience, and that’s why I know I still have a lot to live and learn.

      • When I was 17 — 4 years ago, dang — I was fully aware of the fact that I was pretty ignorant, LARGELY because of my age. And I accepted it. It’s all good. I wasn’t an idiot but I didn’t mind if anyone implied that I was, because it’s true that you learn more as you get older. Just how it is.

  • Let’s not forget – Miley and her boyfriend are much deeper people than us normal folks. Can we possibly understand what her advanced and deep-thinking brain is talking about here?!!

  • molls, according to your wisdom in a recent post, since Miley is keeping her “boyfriend” around and they continue to “date” that must mean he is fucking the shit out of her right? Like every girl wants their boyfriends to right? According to you. Right?

    Only if her heart is in her vagina like yours is though. Right?

    Am I right?

  • play it cool, not act cool is what she was saying.

    do not take this as me standing up for miley

  • i agree with molls. the point is, dating isn’t the game she makes it out to be. i think sometimes people make love out to be sooooo complicated, when it’s really not necessary.

    • Agreed! It’s actually pretty simple if you just let it be. People would bitch about love so much less if they figured that out. Games are totally unnecessary and stupid as shit.

  • She’s 17 – she’s spewing dumbass 17 year old dating *insight*, much like you spew your bitter 20-something year old dating *insight*.

  • Eh, Miley actually made a point with that first comment..

    I mean, if you’re thinking to yourself like: oh he texted, I shouldn’t immediately text back, because I don’t want him to think I like him……
    …then you do like him :P it’s so true.

  • Sadly, My boyfriend and I broke up a month ago. yeah.. i’m young ,beautiful,lonely and still hurting.i need someone to love ….My friends told me about A_g_e_m_in_g_le @ c./o./m and i got curious about it.. they met their boyfriends there.,It is said that it’s the best place to meet a older boyfriend or a younger girlfriend. .So i got a username AnnaBaby there in order to find a new boyfriend. is it wrong?

  • @Mercy,

    I admited I still have a lot to learn and there are plenty of things that I don’t know, but just because I’m growing up and young doesn’t mean I *have* to be an idiot. I am not. Yes, I know I will make a lot of mistakes because I still have a lot of growing up to do. And maybe if you knew me in real life you’d see that I’m not as idiotic as a lot of teens are. I may be an idiot, but not that much. And now that does sound stupid… well, I hope you get my point.

    • Chill out!!!! she said idiots about love! not idiots!!!!! we all are idiots about love and especially when we are teenagers!!! you can be the smartest person in world and still fall for the wrong person! or do silly stuff…. i once didn’t make it to my house at the time i was supposed to because i was with the guy i liked! my parents almost called the police!!! shit love makes u do stupid things especially when you are young and unexperienced.

      • You’re so right. Being 17 and ‘in love’ makes you the stupidest person to ever walk planet earth… I can’t say no to that one.

  • “I don’t know if anyone’s taking dating advice and life tips from Miley Cyrus, but let me throw this out there to those who are considering it: If you’re playing games with a guy so that he thinks you’re cool, you don’t really like him.”

    i don’t think miley saying what she personally does when she starts dating a guy and really likes him equals her giving dating advice and life tips. when did she tell anyone else to do that?

    i don’t think wanting to make sure you don’t come on too strong is playing a game either. if there’s one thing i’ve learned, it’s guys need their space! a chick calling all the time or coming on really strong in the beginning can freak guys out.

    • this comment section is LAAAME, all u do anymore is talk shit about the actual blogger. comment about the subject or go read your gossip somewhere else, just don’t bore me with your repetitive rambles about how much u hate molls.

  • i have to say i don’t mind about her calling her parents loco i don’t think t makes her look spoiled i think she meant it in an endearing way. i think they’re a pretty close family

  • You know what these comments make her look like?
    A 17 year old.
    With the way that teenagers in hollywood are scrutinised and criticised it’s no wonder so many of them end up a la Lohan. You’re hard pressed to find someone of this age who DOESN’T say things like this. I’m so glad I didn’t have to go through my teenage years having everything I said and did put under the microscope.

  • I dunno. I’ve certainly heard stupider things from teenagers. Calling your parents “loco” seems about right, anyway. Especially hers.

  • Who cares!!! My boyfriend thinks the same with me. He- is eight years older than me, lol. We met online at an age gap dating site- A_ge_m_in_gle @ c/o/m a nice and free place for Younger- Women and Older Men, or Older Women and Younger Men, to- interact with each other. Maybe you wanna check out or- tell your friends.

  • Did you read the part where she said “I was like, ‘No, maybe he’s just too pretty. I don’t want to be with someone who’s better looking than me. That’s like awkward.’
    That’s very mature too, wanting to be the beautiful one. And so modest of her ! Her ugly ex-boyfriends must be thrilled (because the underwear model she dated last year was much less attractive than she is…)

  • Typical teenage girl thinking. Wake the fuck up people, you cannot fall in love by texting or emailing. She trys to prove shes all grown up by dating older guys but she sure as hell doesnt sound intelligent. And dont expect her to ever sound wise, intelligent, mature, she never had to struggle for shit, just a stupid little spoiled slut.

  • What I want to know is…if she isn’t putting out, then how else would she get all these boyfriends that are light years more attractive than she is?

    BUTTERFACE!

    *There is a perfectly good reason for this: You are. Before the age of 21-22 etc., a “CHILD” knows approximately .003% of absolutely nothing. Unfortunately for most kids, nowadays, with the lack of good old fashioned ass-beating, when they reach the ages of around 15-17 years, they become extremely dangerous to themselves in that they now think that they are “worldly” & know all there is to know about relationships, alcohol, drugs, babies, etc. etc. etc. Once they get to around 19, they begin to mature enough that they are able to LISTEN to adults and consequently LEARN from adults. The very simple fact that most CHILDREN fail to realize, is that we are adults, and we ARE smarter than you right now. Will we always be? Of course not. You will ultimately pass us by of course. But you must first grow up. You learn by listening to your elders & THEN by application in your daily lives. Good Luck to you Victoria.
