Oops...I never answered the original question.
I was 17, she was 16 and not a virgin. And I was very much
in love with her, and she loved me too. We lasted 9 months together, kind of a long time for a teen aged thing. We learned a lot about sex together.
And it is true...it is a once in a lifetime experiance. I'll never forget
her. We tried getting back together years later when we were
in our 20's. It was slowly coming together, we were not really dating
yet, but talking to each other and getting close again.
Then one morning I got a phone call from her sister. She was killed
in a car accident the night before. And I shall never forget that feeling either. But I was thankful that I had the chance to see her again before she moved on to the next life.
I always wondered where things would have gone. I still think fondly of her, and always will. She was very special to me, and I am so very grateful to have been able to love her. This was many years ago. Love is eternal I suppose.
This made me cry..thinking about her.
