30 Day Meme: Day Two - My First Love
Aug. 31st, 2010 10:10 am![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
This day is one of several that freaks me out to talk about. I'm pretty sure I'm going to come out sounding either like a total lunatic or pathetic and I don't particularly feel fond of either. But, in the interest of honesty, here goes.
The first guy that I ever really remember having feelings for was a lot older than I was. He was the boy across the street and his name was Kenneth. I was only a kid, though, so this never went any further than me kissing a flower that I left in his yard. *lol*
My first "boyfriend" came in the 4th grade (or something like that?) and his name was Alex. We held hands on the playground and I remember having this funny floating feeling, but like all grammar school romances, it was doomed to failure.
The first guy that I ever thought I loved had been a friend for a long time. He was one of my best friends at the time, but we were in high school and lived for drama and it went very wrong. Luckily, through perseverance, we remained friends, and I'm pretty sure in retrospect that I did love him, but mostly as a friend. I still do love him as a friend. :)
And this is the crux of it - I've never really been in love with anyone. I've been enamored with, intrigued by, in lust with, involved with, "special friends" with, good friends with, and do love several men in the past/present/ and foreseeable future. But I've never been head over heels, can't feel the ground beneath my feet, the world could end and I'd be happy in love with anyone.
Which is why I'm guessing this makes me a bit pathetic.
