I just copied the comments.php file from the default twenty fourteen template and pasted it inside my folder. I had a weird message about attributes you can chose to use and had to edit a function to get it to disappear. I removed this line:
<?php comment_form(); ?>
and replaced it with this:
<?php comment_form(array('comment_notes_after' => '')); ?>
That got it working exactly the way I wanted without that notice.
