I was playing spin the bottle with my cousins and others behind the house at the family reunion when I was 14. Had the hots for one (well maybe two) of my "cousins" for years.
Finally about 10 years later go to see her again and took her to dinner. Things didn't work out the way I planned....rather odd actually but I told her bye and drove back home 350 miles.
Knew she was a player and damn if she didn't call me right after I got home and sweet talk me. I came across like a sucker but thought she would "try a little harder" in person to lead me on....but oh well. Haven't seen or talked to her since. I was busy gettin busy here.
Not really me cousin...but a relative. But cousin would have been fine too.
She was the grand daughter of my dad's half sister by marriage.
She was a hottie though.. I mean I went for the best looking girl there. Apparently so had a lot of other people. Me, not so much at the time, but I was just getting started. I have no room to talk now. But I wouldn't change a thing, as a matter of fact, if I had life to do over a gain and new what I knew now....this is what we always say right.....I wouldn't worry about the things other people talk about doing over. I would have one mission...I would end up knocking up girls in high school. My school, other high schools....wherever.
It would be bad!
I had NO idea how to play the game back then. I didn't even know how to talk to girls and ask them out even NOT playing a game....even if I liked them.
If I had it to do over I would be ridiculous.
Absolutely ridiculous.
I passed up so many opportunities with girls because I was too dumb, or shy, or slow to jump in there and "ride that ride with a smile".
I have some good stories later in life and enjoyed every damn one of them and wished there were more, but this didn't happen until I was 23 and it was for a very short time...cause as what usually happens....either it falls off, or you fall in love.
Luckily it was just love for me. Even had another girl lined up from friends or mine that I had seen a few weeks before and they had something going on and told me GUESS WHAT..Sally's going to be there. I wanted nothing more in the world a few weeks before that to say..."Lay down! Sally" but I had met my fiancee about two weeks before and proposed that in the first 48 hours I met her.
I had to go to the function by myself (fiancee at college) and had to be a perfect gentleman around Sally. I think they wondered what the hell was wrong with me because I had specifically asked what Sally's "deal" was before. They set me up and I like ran as much as I could.
Strange things in love....
Wait whaaat?
Are you saying you immediately married the girl that popped your cherry?
