It all started with a guy I didn't even like. I hate to say it but its true. A friend of mine talked me into "going out" with this older guy when I was in the 8th grade. I think he was about 2 or 3 years older then me. He was in the high school next to my school. I gave him a chance though.. really tried to see the good and for about a week it was fine .. He was a great sketch artist. His was the first anime I had ever seen drawn. It impressed me.. but then.. he told me about how his wall had a hole in it. The hole peeked into his brothers room (his brother was in my class) and he liked to watch his brother making out with his girlfriends. The most clear picture I have is him kissing me and me running home to wash out my mouth. I broke up with him through a note i sent via a friend of his. I was hated by a few guys in my class after that. Apparently the guy had locked himself in his room and cried for two days. Not sure if i truly believe that.. but it still made me feel bad.
Next was a guy from Cadets. I wasn't in cadets very long but there was a guy that asked me out and we were together for maybe 3 weeks. I don't remember him much since cadets was pretty much a day or two a week and then there was the whole.. cadets thing.. heh.. Either way he was a good guy ... Come to think about it I don't think we ever broke up.
The next one was one of 2 I will be with but I really want to be with *him* situations. The first one turned out to be my "first" but that came way after we had broken up and became friends. He was the school's playboy.. Not too popular but he was really into becoming a model. I believe there was one ad he did model for. But either way he was the type where he had multiple girlfriends and I knew it.. There were a few girls he made them think they were the only ones.. But to me he was always honest. Not that thats necessarily a good relationship detail but we were good friends. It never really bothered me because it was his friend I was more interested in. But sadly I never got together with the friend.
And TADA the next one is the second I will be with but I really want to be with *him* situation. There were two guys I hung out with. One was 2 years younger and the other 3 years younger then me.. Which yes I know its not that big a deal these days but lets just say I was young as it was. I started seeing the 3 year younger one because he had called me to find out if i liked him. Which i didn't think he was bad.. so silly me said yes. When we were alone or with the other friend. He was sweet calm and just a good guy.. But when he was around younger kids or a large group he was rowdy and very immature. One time we were playing basketball and he grabbed himself and started running around shouting "release the beast" it was very embarrassing and I broke up with him shortly after. He didn't take it well and ended up egging my house. ....
After him it was kind of back with the model.. This is were he ended up being my first. Mistake... we still talked for years afterwards. Up until about 4 - 5 years ago.
That was the year I left home. I moved in with a best friend.. (which turned out to be a huge mistake for many reasons and some dark secrets) I had a few dates with a few guys but nothing really came of them. One even left the place we had met when I started talking to a friend of his. When my friend had gone away and I had to get out of the house. I met Brad. Brad was a great guy. Easy to get along with, fun, smart, sweet. He came from a good family he was studying to be an accountant. He was the first computer geek I ever met let alone dated. He was a well built guy and i felt safe with him.. until he had me walking home at 1 - 2 am. Which wasn't so bad cause it gave me an excuse to avoid certain people at my friends house. But one day I found a letter from a girl who said she couldn't wait to get back to see him. Then a friend of mine told me he was cheating on me and I got angry. I dumped him and did a few "twists" to his BBS profile. A few days later we talked about getting back together after learning the truth on how the girl was just a friend and had already returned and was dating someone else. I felt bad.. and he forgave me.. We just never got together again.. Brad was killed a year or two later. He hadn't dated anyone else but had gotten into drugs and alcohol and was in a car wreck. To this day I still ask what if.. and blame myself a little. But he will always have a spot in my memories.
The next was another friend convincing me to get with someone.. It was a few weeks after dumping Brad. I didn't want to date this new friend.. but i ended up giving in. He reminded me of a cousin of mine so I was a little turned off. And so when I met the next guy I didn't even pause before going out with him.
and for the next 4 and a half years.. I loved this man.. ok i still do but not in the same way. After 4.5 years I saw he was happier spending time with another girl. So I left him so he could be free.. He took it hard and asked me to reconsider after 6 mths. But I knew it wouldn't happen. And sure enough 6 mths later he was married to the other girl. Today they have been married for almost 10 years I think. He has a son and I am happy for him.
That is when I met Boo's dad. I was with him for 6 and a half years. Content to live with him hiding in his room forever. The only good thing that came from that relationship was Boo.
The reason I did this post was because I needed it for myself...
