Perhaps some of you guys in your early teens are wondering why there has been that other voice in you coming out of your vocal chords. Guys, please do not worry as that is just your voice breaking. One minute, its high and the next its low. You just can't control it. All i have to say is deal with it.
Firstly, a guy's larynx, also known as the voice box, grows bigger. The larynx, which is located in the throat at the top of the trachea or windpipe, is a hollow tube about 5 centimeters high. The larynx is responsible for creating the sound of your voice.
As your larynx grows, your vocal cords grow longer and thicker. Also, your facial bones begin to grow. Cavities in the sinuses, the nose, and the back of the throat grow bigger, creating more space in the face that gives your voice more room to echo. All of these factors cause your voice to get deeper. Basically, the larger your voice box, the deeper your voice will be. Usually, your voices would fully mature only in your twenties.
To sum it up, male voices naturally break. It's just proof of us boys transitioning into men.

Boy-Girl Relationships
Four facts about teenagers we should know:
1.It is normal for a teen to be interested in dating.
2.Teenagers do not know how to date.
3.Teenagers whose parents talk to them about dating are better prepared and happier.
4.Teenagers need privacy.
Tips:
These tips if put into practice will make both you and your date comfortable so that you can relax and have a good time.
1.Do make a good impression.
We do realize that on a first date, we get a first impression of the other party. Do away the the t-shirt and shorts or jeans and turn it up a notch, that way you will look more presentable.
2.Tips for Guys
Always be courteous and gentlemanly when out on a date. E.g. open doors when arriving at a location, always greet her parents when you meet, always get her back home on time when she has a curfew set by her parents etc. After all, whether or not you can go out on another date depends on whether her parents trust you enough to leave her with you.
3.Speak up.
Do not be afraid to tell your date/partner if you are advancing too fast. If you feel uncomfortable with the way he/she is moving physically or emotionally, do not hesitate to voice out what you think and tell him/her to halt. You might be taken advantage of by your date if whatever he/she is doing is making you feel uncomfortable.
Hope this helps!
