Fanciful infatuation junkie
Childhood: I was friends with my next door neighbor, and would often claim (jokingly) that I was gonna marry him one day... While they've never moved, we lost touch.

Around the age of 8 or so I would seek out specific boys on the plaground... and scratch them! It must've been my little psychotic mind sublimating the "look at me!" feelings with the "EEEW, boys!" feelings. My mom kept warning me about "One day, you're going to need help and maybe one of those boys is the only one who can help you and they won't because they'll remember what you did!" My mom is nuts.

High school: Developed a very persistant crush on a guy in art class. A "we're just friends, right?" talk did nothing to halt the prickles of excitement whenever I saw him. I have a photo from prom of just me and him, and as they're my memories... HA!

Freshman year at college: Hooked up with my first (and only) boyfriend after watching, of all things, the extras for Phantom Menace (much better then the movie). Weirdly enough there was no infatuation on my part leading up to that. Broke up 3 months later and my stupid heart didn't listen to my practical head and I hurt for a long while. Seeing him in math class every other day and being alone at mealtimes didn't help either.

Currently, after hearing my friend Penguin's tales of romantic woe I'm perfectly happy to remain single as I am too lazy to deal with drama... although there is a guy I rather fancy (not that he'll ever know)!
