I would go back to the 8th grade and let the love of my life know how I feel about her.

The dark side's callin' now
Nothin' is real
She'll never know just how I feel

I have a similar regret. Her name was Julie Smith. Started "going steady" in 6th grade, but, ended badly as a stuffed animal (collie dog) I'd given her, I demanded she return after I broke up with her. She wouldn't give it back and rumor had it she'd written on the bottom:::"This is as phony as you are, Dale." We'd see each in the hallways of Junior High School thereafter, but, we never spoke. Our eyes would meet, but, the words would not come. In high school she ended up in one of my classes and sat to my left, one down. By this time I'd started my relationship with Katie and she'd walk me to this class each day. Julie would always watch us kiss goodbye, then I'd enter the classroom and take my seat. She'd never take her eyes from mine as I moved to my seat and a couple time there were tears there. It was a terrible 9 months as I sat there feeling this girl's eyes bearing into my soul. Sometimes I'd have occasion to turn in my seat. Every time, every single time she was there, watching me with those blue eyes and delicate features, like a Porcelain Doll.

Sometimes when I go back I drive past her childhood home. Ironically it is the exact same two story model that Girl grew up in.

What was your girl's name, Rob? What is the story?

Not sure if trolling but I just never let her know how I felt about her. She liked me well into high school but I just never made a move. Long story short I regret it and think about her almost every day. She was a great girl and turned into a great beautiful woman. She's married now but I still think about her. She was a blue eyed blonde with beautiful features and a great personality.

Callie is her name.

No. I'd never troll on this kind of materiel, Rob.

Young love is so sharp and lasting. When I think of Julie I still get that pit in my stomach. She too married, but, it did not last. His name was Ken. I'd see them in school sometimes and they did not look right together.

My wife is understanding of my romantic side and so I've talked about Julie to her many times thru the decades. She listens as I try to make sense of the the lingering shadows, now drawing close to 50 years.

Your girl (Callie) is an open wound like mine. And that's okay I suppose. We're each "touched" in life.

Welcome to the human race, we all have been there and probably on both sides of that issue, so don't feel too badly about it.
It's part of what made you who you are today. We all have lessons to learn on the roller coaster ride called LIFE.

I guess we were, what hurts is that I never let her know how I felt about her. So that "what if" is always in the back of my mind.

The opposite side of the coin for my wife & I is the fellow (Bob) who loved my wife before I did. She chose me over him and we have seen Bob thru the years (at their 10th HS reunion) etc. He was married by then, but, his torch still burned white hot. There was/is no intent there, just a keen longing that will never end for him. And I feel badly about it. Girl isn't of my romantic ilk, she's more common sense, so, when I try and fathom the decision and the draw up to it she is not very reflective. "I did not love him, Dale. I love you." I see Bob's face a lot in my thoughts and I feel terrible about it. I could tell his wife at that reunion was keen to Bob's love for my wife. She was stern faced & cross and I felt badly for her as well.

Well you shouldn't feel badly about it, she chose you and that's something to be proud of. And damn, hope I don't end up like Bob. Lol

don't need to feel badly about it imho. HS kids don't know about love. It's just the instinctive curiosity that every young people has that drives them to search into the underwear of the opposite sex, but that's all. If a HS kid or an undergraduate student promises he/she is going to settle down with one classmate something of the opposite sex, he/she must be either ing stupid or blatantly bull ting imho.

40+ years later I'd have it nary other way, no bs.

If I could go back and change things....

Eulace Pea is there in Berlin for the 36 Olympics

Mohammad died in that cave on the mountain.

There are three other states between California and Mexico.

Jimi, Jim and Janis died of old age.

Robert Johnson lived long enought to play an electric guitar.

We still had the AFL vs the NFL.

Hitler never left Austria.

Lee Harvey Oswalt (or whoever it really was) misses.

Avante how old are you again? I love grandmas/grandpas, since I take care of my grandmother, I help her with stuff she can't do anymore, I've grown to like elderly people mainly because of their way of thinking, their so innocent and child like. Hope to see you live until your 90's like her, everybody deserves to live for a long time.

The most interesting, clever, sharpe and forceful people I know are older than myself. The most successful people I know are older than myself. The ones who don't know , don't have a clue, can't talk about much because they haven't had time to do much are younguns. This place is a perfect example of that.

Avante....J.D. Smith was a defensive back while at NCA&T, the Niners made a running back out of him and he didn't disappoint. He became the first athlete from the HBCU to gain over a 1000 yards in the NFL.

Young Clubber...who gives a ?

Why this overwelming need to remain stupid??????????????

[Rogue]

It's a pleasure to talk with people who're older than you and hence have more life experience, but you also got be aware of the differences between the time you live in and that of theirs. For example, as much as I respect my parents (and people of that generation), I can hardly agree to follow their lifestyle (getting married & settling down) because that style of life has been left far behind by the evolution of our society imho.

And most people born in the industrialized countries after the world war may expect to live past their 100th birthdays, only if they all learn to stop abusing their lives (alcohol, smoking, over-sex etc...)
