so a few months ago my best friend from high school let me know that a guy each of us had dated in jr high and high school was going to be getting married. yesterday she sent me a link to view the pictures. while i never thought of him as "the one who got away" or anything like that, he was my first boyfriend and first kiss, so naturally there is a slight attachment that will always be there.
anywho... i first opened the folder to view them and my first thought was "wow he's so grown up!" and "they look so happy and beautiful together" but then i realized... i'm right there too! holy crap! I am going to be getting married soon too... we're not the teenagers that i still remember us all being all too often. we're all in our mid 20's now and GROWN UPS! wow. so if we're all in our 20's now, where'd the time go?! it feels like yesterday that we were all hanging out at football games and going to school dances... with CHAPERONES.
seriously, time has flown by and i have a feeling it won't ever slow down! so here's my thought. i need to (we all need to) enjoy the moments that we can. they will fly by so fast and before we know it we'll be retired and living in florida... oh wait... i've already got half that down!

I always look back on my frist serious relationship right now and wonder we're he'll be, as well as I ine 10 years or so. It kind of scares me. Even though we've been split up for about 8 months now, I still get the lingering feeling for him. I don't think I've quite moved on.
It's cool how you still talk to your high school friends, i don;t know if I will. =(
She only still talks to me...Cause I KICK ASS!!! LOL!!
No really it is weird.... I kept thinking...is the same guy I use to sneak around to make out with, that use to squirt milk out his eyes!! Of all of us he was the one I could never picture as an adult!!
kate... it's true. i DO only talk to you b/c you kick ass! and i never could picture him as an adult either... but then again i can't picture me as an adult as well!
ashley... there will always be some attachment to those you had serious relationships with. however, there is a reason you broke up too. the relationship didn't work out, but you have to accept that and learn from it. every relationship has lessons attached. whether it's how to deal with heartache, how to stand up for yourself, how to reconize something unhealthy, how to accept someone else's flaws... whatever the case is, there is a lesson.
