Teen Drama Links for February 14, 2023
Happy Valentine’s Day, (teen drama) lovers!
Let’s be honest: One of the reasons we love the teen dramas, if not the top reason, is because of the relationships. The couples we fell in love with and the ones that broke our hearts.
In honor of Valentine’s Day, I’ve dug into the TeenDramaWhore archives and compiled below all of the “TDW Originals” that have to do with our favorite relationships. Get ready for chills, tears, and some amazing kisses.
Don’t have a Valentine this year? Please. The teen dramas are your Valentine!
