I was a late bloomer I guess, sports were all I cared about, I had friends that were girls but if they came and went I didn't too much care till I met this Italian girl in Coral Springs Fl named Mary, went out for about 6 months but she was headed to NY to attend Nursing School and I never heard from her again. I got the feeling since I wasn't full blooded Italian I would not be accepted back home.

Her family moved away before 3rd grade and I thought we would never see eachother again. We wrote letters for a while (no email in the late 80's) but that eventually died out. I never stopped thinking about her, though. First semester of my freshman year in college I was going through the "Fish Directory" and did a triple-take when I came across a very familiar name. It was her. We dated all through college and long distance for five years afterwards before finally calling it quits. Turned out to be a huge waste of time.
Awww... it's so sad when adult life spoils good memories...

Wow, how weird is that... He must've been meant to marry this name, but not you...

Shaun Cassidy?.. and not David Cassidy and his mischievous TV show, brother Danny Bonaducci?

Hmmm.. in the 1960's, I had a crush on Dawn Wells, who played Marianne (or is it Mary Ann?) on Gilligan's Island.

I also had a crush on a gal in grade school, but I was only 11 or so.

My first girlfriend was when I was a junior in high school, we dated until late 1979 early 1980, after she graduated from college, and I dropped out of college.

I went back to college in January of 1985 and got my Bachelor degree in Computer Science... A gal I dated in the 1980's joked with me about going to college for a long time, like John Belushi's line from Animal House "Seven years of college right down the drain!"...

LOL.. there's not much to hear about, I was too shy to talk to her.

Allso in my freshman year in high school, I had a crush on my English teacher, and I still remember her name to this day, Mrs. Campbell, I think she was married, and I believe she was in her mid or late 20's in 1972, at least 10 years older than I am. so I don't think that would have worked out...

I learned to overcome my shyness when I was a junior in high school and gathered enough nerve to ask the gal out, who was in history class, and liked a lot, and we dated for 6 years.

Awww... my poor neighbor was shy... You're certainly making up for it now considering how much time you spend in your room.

I remember girls from 1st grade,not sure if they were just crushes though because I got with them anyway.

There was a girl I was friendly with when I was around 8 though who would probably have been considered my girlfriend,but as my life started to unravel in my teenage years I actually later found out that she was one of the first I'd heard about having kids then getting married. Well no chance there I guess huh? Now mid 30s I wonder whatever became of those that peaked so early...
