Day 10 - Discuss your first love and first kiss.
my first kiss was my freshman year of high school with sam leatherman, my boyfriend at the time. we had been dating about 2 months and neither of us had ever kissed anyone before.
we were at church and i would always catch a ride from a woman who lived down the street. sam had walked me to the van and slid open the door. like something out of the movies, he tilted my chin up with his index finger, leaned forward and kissed me. it was simple and unexpected and absolutely sweet :) the best first kiss i could’ve asked for.
my first love (or to be more specific, the first guy i was in love with) was ben ostrander. we started dating when i was 17 and i fell for him hard and fast. while i was crazy about him, he was incapable of loving me back. not to say that every moment with him was bad, because we had some wonderful moments together, but looking back, i remember very few moments when i was truly happy. mostly, i tried to make him understand how much i loved him and did everything in my power to convince him that i was worthy of love in return.
it didn’t end up working out and i broke up with him a month before our 2-year anniversary. we played our dysfunctional relationship game for another year or so after that. it’s been nearly 3 years since that relationship and as painful as it was, all those experiences taught me about love and about myself, and those are the parts i am thankful for.
