I had a crush on this girl in college.

Beautiful Italian woman.

We were good friends. I never told her I had a crush on her. We had the same majors, so we were in a few classes together.

I used to go to her apartment that she shared with 3 other women who were always around.

We'd sit on the couch and she would cuddle up next to me while we studied.

One day I worked up the nerve to ask her out, even though she was dating an older graduate student. She turned me down nicely and we remained friends. Sounded like she was starting to get serious about this guy. Their relationship fell apart though.

During graduation week, I ran into her at the on-campus pub (do they still have those)?

She grabbed my hand and dragged me into the women's room. She had on this ankle length dress.

She yelled CONGRATULATIONS LUCKY, WE'RE GRADUATING!!

She bent down and pulled up her dress all the way up over her head. She had nothing on underneath,.

I freaked over seeing my crush naked. I mumbled something in a panicked voice, and left the women's room.

The reason for this post is to remind you to discourage young people from going to college, because it makes you stupid.

I had gone to the beach with several friends one day and after having a really good time headed back to our apartments. I had been hanging out with one of my close friends girlfriend that day (he didn't go) and we were getting along well. Next thing you know she is in my apartment and naked I am also - she was beautiful but I felt so guilty so at just about the last minute I said "I can't, it wouldn't be right" and she got really pissed. I felt so stupid and a little humiliated.

I never told my buddy and neither did she - he later married her and although they did divorce several years later it was never mentioned. I have lost touch through the years with both.

But I do kind of regret it - I sometimes wish I had followed through. ☮

Nothing like the innocence and desire of youth. 💞

8. There were a couple of times when I was "virgin." Maybe my early 20's. This was 1960's.

P was 18 and wanted to have sex. She was also virgin. God, did I want it but I was scared. She found someone else to solve her problem. I was left with mine.

Same with my next date. 'cept she was divorced and not a virgin. When it got too serious, I broke it off.


Then came M. She seduced me on our first date. --- sex every day or night for two years.

Through high school and college.

Been with my little partner for 37 years now, so hopefully I learned a thing or two.

With the aids scare things were a little more restrained and condoms were rightfully expected.

I had my few brief college flings, but that’s all they were, and usually the ones I had the deepest crushes on walked right past me as if I were the Invisible Man.

But the year I graduated, on another continent with a different set of rules and values, I finally met the woman of my dreams, and wonder of wonders, she seemed to enjoy my company. Now, 49 years later, she still does.

As David Ben Gurion is supposed to have said, he who does not believe in miracles is not a realist.

We were both a bit tipsy with the rest room incident.

We were friends only throughout college, she was seeing this guy, it didn't work out.

We always flirted throughout college, as friends.

She felt comfortable enough with me to do what she did in the restroom.

I laugh at my stupidity in not taking her up on her offer.

14. Okay. Thanks. It just sounded like she was using you for her own entertainment.

But we can't get much from a few paragraphs.

Glad it all worked out!
