Is it just me, or when you really look at it does dating at a young age seem pointless?

All around me people at school are dating, breaking hearts or having their hearts broken. Even aside from that dating just seems so… pointless! Sure, the point of dating is to find a mate and reproduce, but it just seems so illogical! I can’t really comprehend being it that sort of situation, being that close to someone… it just seems so wierd. Does anyone here fell that way or is it just me?
