oh boy that was intense! And very common, I fear. I kissed a boy in high school, he was the classic bad-boy so much so that after the kiss he decided to drop out (unheard of in my small town!) and after 3 weeks of me dealing with butterflies and daydreams and writing his name on my journal over and over, I texted him "starting to miss you". AS IF! I tried so hard to play it cool but when I saw him a while later he was shocked to find out I thought we were together. He was too busy doing drugs and other people to even remember we kissed. See? the facepalm is a shared feeling.

Thanks for sharing, Barbs! I am glad I eventually did learn from my past neuroses but definitely glad I wasn’t alone! 🤣😅
