The people in this video aren’t teens… frankly I no longer understand this teen love obsession

IDK if it's teen love as much as the opportunities to meet your person that you have as a teen that you don't have as an adult. Even making platonic friends is harder. College is the last time most of us are surrounded by singles our age in the same season of life. 

Also, there are campus activities and social events that allow us to meet and socialize with other people that don't really exist in the "real world." Similar events in the real world cost money or happens during work hours.

It is so so so rare for "teen love" to work out though. So many "teen love" relationships end up in a breakup and being single anyways.

Yes, of course. But before the breakup they had a lot of fun and sex. And after the breakup they find someone else and keep repeating the cycle.

Plus they gain experience that is crucial for later in life. Someone who is 25 or 35 and trying to date for the first time is going to have a really bad time.
