1) Yes, only one crush, though.

2) Didn't go to prom. Never cared for homecoming, prom, or anything like that in high school. I don't understand not going is always scrutinized though. It's just a high school dance; why is so much emphasis put upon it? (Here comes the responses calling me a loser)

3) Yes

4) No

5) Yes

6) Yes

7) No

8) No

All but 6 and 8. Well I was on the fence about #2, the guy who asked me was gay. He came out in college. As for 7? Well they tried. I didn't accept.

1-3, no.
4-8, yes.
Some questions apply to same person (I rejected-romantically-someone & friendzoned him).
All of these refer to my past, though-so what if I had a social life 20 years ago ? My recent, present, and likely future circumstances are what most concern me now. While I'm glad I had experiences on which to reflect, that doesn't necessarily translate to an improved current situation. I've loved and lost, and have been loved, (or, at least so I was led to believe). It's better than nothing, sure-but memories of extinct relationships don't provide the ongoing interactivity that I would like with another human being.

Yes from 1-6
7 Depends the definition of "romantic contact"?
8 Never ask a lady how old she is, if she lied about her weight on her drivers or if she has ever had a one night stand...

Who answered zero?!?

Come forth and claim thy prize.

Truth be told, this was kind of a semi-sad sack post. I wrote it knowing my own answer would be zero, but after reading some of the responses, I can use some positive creative angles to give myself at least a point.

4) I have had a girlfriend before, so I guess her asking me to go out consists of a date. That's not how I meant the question, but I'll take it. Otherwise, no. I award myself half a point.

5) A friend of mine who had a boyfriend tried to kiss me once when drunk and I backed off. Her BF is my friend too. Truth be told, I'd probably have dated her for a bit if he wasn't in the picture. I guess that counts. I have also been hit on by a couple of gay guys. But I didn't really reject them. More like they just said something embarrassing and I ignored it. One point awarded.

Total = 1.5 points ...

All except #3. I can't recall a total stranger around my age telling me I'm handsome right off the bat.
