We went to a movie and he put his arm around me during the show. As you know we didn't have the 16 year old age rule at that time. It was an innocence time. <br />Blessings!LeAnnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18107717294803352571noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3723327840869334395.post-62722971788109249722014-12-06T17:32:08.813-07:002014-12-06T17:32:08.813-07:00Sweet--and so true.

I had a few friends who are still my friends to this day, but when I entered those awkward teenage years, everything escalated, and hormonal emotions set in. I remember my first date; she went home with someone else. My second date never happened because she told me to drop dead. Maybe it was the dark T-shirts, well-worn levis, scuffed boots and motorcycles?
