happy birthday, asshole
i’m only writing this because it’s his birthday today. he’s 24. he’s the one who got away for me. or i’m the one who got away for him. i don’t actually remember how it went. i do remember, though, that it’s been 7 years now. and i still remember his birthday, what a fool i am.
and i only made out with him that one time, but man was i into it then....
okcupid
i met you on the internet. okay, that makes both of us sound so pathetic. well, actually maybe you are. i don’t really know you well enough to make that distinction. i’m pretty sure i’m not that pathetic, though. at least, gosh, i hope not.
the first time we actually met was at my work. you liked my taste in movies and books or something. at least the ones i had listed on my...

sip that drink, girl
Is it a crush…? or it is lust?…and what’s the difference?…..that what always fucks me up….
he used to come in Thursdays and Fridays, just as we were about to lock the doors….30 seconds to go and I’d given up for the day, hating my job; the only reason I stayed was because I breathed better, all week..just seeing him for 5 minutes…10,9,8,7,6,5, and...

she's fucking crazy
In our life time, we have the fortunate (or for some, unfortunate) pleasure of meeting someone you truely love. Someone, that no matter where life takes both of you, be you seperated by continents, violently swept up by a tornado or a stampede of emus in mating season, whatever the case may be, no matter the distance, there will always be love in your heart for them. This has happened to me only...
overcoming to be together
I remember everything about the night we met, except you. For that, I would have to look back at my journals from the time; Spring of 2002. I was only 15 but we were at a bar for a show. My best friend’s boyfriend – your best friend - drove us there and back, and on the way home you and I sat next to each other in the back seat, playing Frisbee within the small confines of the car. What came...
springtime first kisses
We met at the end of my sr year in high school. He lived next door to another guy whom I had made out with a few times, they were best friends. Turned out the first guy had a girl friend who was in france for the semester. That was a nice surprise when she came back. Even though it was over with the first guy I still hung out at his place every chance I had. A big group of us spent the spring...
backseat journal
Do you ever think that someone out there has the perfect match for your lips? And by this I mean that your lips seem to connect in the most accurate, smoothest, and sexiest way possible. Well I think I found these “magic” lips. The words i’ve described them as are only the beginning. This person is the most amazing kisser i’ve ever met.
Every kiss has so much passion and...
moanin'
It was early september the first time I met him. All I can remember is the immediate smile that was plastered on my face after talking to him. He was very cute..blonde hair, blue eyes, great teeth, and a good body, the kind of guy im into. Instantly I was attracted to him but couldnt do much about it at the time. When I had the chance to hang out with him in february…of course I took it. We...
drinking away my nerves
i have this bad habit of getting nervous around crushes i have. to the point where i’ll get myself painfully drunk just so that i don’t feel how nervous i actually am. i can’t count how many times i’ve done this.
which would all be fine if i was able to keep myself composed when i do this, however i don’t. one of my more hilarious examples of this was actually with...
first boyfriend
He is my first boyfriend. I met him at a school dance last year. My best friend had a class with him, and she became good friends with him, which is partially why I got to know him better. He was on my bus freshman year, so I kinda knew him, but it wasn’t until the Harvest Fair in our town this past fall that I really got to know him. I was the one who made the first move. I offered him a ride...
long distance surprises
His girlfriend had dumped him. His sister lived in my dorm. The sister told him he should come over and visit me. We were both dog lovers, so we already had something in common.
There were no big fireworks. I was a party girl and he was the shy, studious type. He was just a nice guy to talk to. We became good friends and the love blossomed from there. One of his great features was his sense of...
shy crushes
I was always really shy and up until college I think I had only asked out like one girl ever, who said no so I’d never had a girlfriend or been on a date or anything. For college I went to an engineering school where there hardly any girls. But this one time I had an electronics class in college and was this smoking hot girl in the class. When it came time for us to pick our lab partners I...
"the" crush
It started out as most of them do. A casual glance, a smile and then she was gone for a few days. I spent those first few days in a kind of fogged world thinking about her smile, her hair and the way the crush pops in and out of your mind when you least expect it to. One day she was back and the glance, the smile and now a brief conversation. She was more than I had imagined in my dreams of the...
bald spots and butterflies.
i always got crushes on guys when i thought they had crushes on me. rarely did i ever have a crush spontaneously appear if i wasn’t almost sure he was crushing on me. and that’s why i liked him. i was almost positive that he wanted me too. and my friends that saw us interact thought so too. ashley was actually the one who convinced me to go after him when she assured me that it was a...
the boy with the bike lock he'll never lock up
I had started a new job in the city i had lived in for a few years. It was a new beginning, I was meeting new people. I was spending a lot of time there. He caught my eye when we were working. Actually, it was his stupid faux hawk that caught my eye. I didnt care, really, so i waited until we locked eyes for a minute. We did. Did i smile? I dont remember waving or anything. Heck, i didnt even know...

she titled this "puppy love"
So, I’m 12, with my very first boyfriend in 7th grade, and we were going on a double date to the movies. Imagine small town, 1970, and walking two miles each way to go on the date. We went with another couple, and the boys walked in front of Patty and I. (we giggled and followed behind)
Anyway, we get to the movies, (a beautiful old theater) and sit in the front row of the balcony. I walk...
lol, carol?
For many people the first day of their freshman year of highschool is very exciting, for others it is the TOTAL opposite. I would fit well into the “TOTAL opposite” category. I walked to school with a childhood friend the first day of highschool, I had always been the nervous one, to this day my friends refer to me as “the Voice of Reason”. I was and still am the one that...
sounds like a cave romance
If I was a little older it wouldn’t have happened the same way. But after twenty years of always being “the friend”, I had learned to doubt that any girl would ever have feelings for me. Which is not to say that girls never liked me, in fact, for the first time in my life more than one girl liked me, but I was slow to notice this. I was too used to these painful one-sided...
the one that got away.
i could talk about you forever, but i won’t.
there are so many reasons that you were unbelievably important to my life and the person i’ve become, but i feel like anything i say will sound trite and honestly, expected.
but what you should know is that you were epic. when people refer to their “great loves,” you will ALWAYS be mine. i’ve never even had to think twice...
first times
I was little bit older than she was, but even I was still very young. I don’t even remember how we met, and that isn’t important. It probably had something to do with internet.
We’d been hanging out and doing whatever all summer. I was about to go away to school so we’d decided not to get too serious. It was a good idea, but it didn’t work. We spent a lot of time...

middle school crush, back?
when i was a kid, i never had many girl friends. i know that this bothered my mom. i think she thought it meant i was gay. i think i was just able to understand that it is tough to be friends with other women at a very young age.
when i got to the point where i was beginning to get crushes on boys, since i didn’t have many girlfriends, i didn’t really know how to proceed. i always...

another condom story. cool.
i had this girlfriend in college and she wouldn’t have sex with me. one night we were studying for our exams, and i said, ok, i gotta go see my friends band. but my frigid girlfriend didn’t want me to leave, and goes, if you stay and study with me you can do whatever you want to me later. i decided to blow off seeing my friend’s band immediately, but after a moment’s...

driving? good idea.
The night after I did acid for the first time I was scared I was going to drive into the ocean. But that wasn’t the ocean, I realized. These were salt flats. There is no ocean in Utah. And neither are there casinos (oh thank god! Those lights were gonna be the death of me!) I was afraid to touch you when I saw you, but only a little bit. I didn’t, like, think you were going to...

pokemon, the movie.
i got my first boyfriend back at the end of seventh grade. i’d had boyfriends before then, but never anything more than holding hands during a school dance and saying hi to one another in the hallways.
he was a lot taller than me and had braces and bleached blond hair in a bowl cut. he skateboarded and was infamous for getting detentions for skating in school. back then, we didn’t...

sounds like this guy works for lifestyles.
I was a young man the first time I slept with a woman. It was great. I don’t remember the condom I wore, but I did, in fact wear one. The second time I had sex, I wore a condom. I don’t remember that condom, either, and even though it broke, I was glad that I’d worn it. Same goes for the third and 70th and 240th and 5,483rd times. I always wear condoms.
I should tell you,...

high school and armpits?
i used to date a girl in highschool. we were good friends at the time, and we had other good friends, it was fun. we would drink 40s at noon and go back to math class drunk. we also built potato guns out of pvc pipe and aqua net. we also bought a raft and spent a lot of time drinking beers off shore— it’s strange, but when you’re like 18, there are few things better than like...
