I was 19, and he was 25 in graduate school. Considering I was still inexperienced, and he probably was very sexually experienced at the time. And for the other poster..nope they have been together for about 6 years, and they are not married. That definitely doesn't work for me. He actually contacted me about 2 years ago expressing interest in "seeing" me even though he was with her at the time. I was very annoyed that he did it, but I guess that kicked him off of the pedestal I put him on too. We really don't speak with each other, but regardless I dodged a bullet anyways.
There's more to it than what I put in the thread, but in a nut shell:
Met her 9 years ago and instantly liked her. Eventually got her number and asked her out...only to find she didn't realise it was a date or that I liked her as she met with and made out with her bf on our "date". She moved away and apart from sporadic texts never saw each other for 3 years, after I saw her again I stupidly text her telling I liked her and she told me she was flattered but seeing someone. The biggest regret of my life with woman followed after this: on a night out when she was boozy she came up to me, put her arms round me, dragged me onto a chair sat on my lap and asked: "So, who are you making out with tonight?" She's normally so quiet & shy, and given I'd asked her out and she said no I was so taken aback and shocked all I could stutter was "I'm not sure, you?" She walked off and when I finally realised she was coming on to me it was too late: she was making out with someone else.
Some more random meet ups and texting over the years before we get to the point that linked thread above starts. Out for food & drinks in January & I finally thought "this is it!" Had an amazing night, so much in common, have such a good laugh and get on so well......but I bottled going for the kiss and everything has been downhill ever since.
Decided I'm going to meet up with her one last time to give myself the closure in my head of saying goodbye to her, delete her number and try & move on. But it pains me to think what could have happened if I'd not been such a wimp that night she came onto me, or I hadn't bottled making a move earlier this year. Really sucks to think what could have been
There are a few i still think about, one in particular - a beautiful red head from the mountains in Colorado. Her dad was a rancher. It was a fairy book romance at age 21. But i was a heavy drinker and she wanted a lot more emotional and financial security than I could give her.
She's happily married (for 45+ years) to wonderful man who also happens to have a lot of money and is a successful died-in- the-wool cattle rancher; has a large family and lives just across the road from her childhood home. She's still beautiful.
She's happy and I'm happy. I'm still not rich, but I don't drink and I have a wonderful relationship with a Danish girl I met 15 or so years ago.
I have two that got away and not just one. It's too painful to talk about either of them. It's been several years and I have yet to find anyone who compares to them and I'm very afraid that I never will.
