***Sigh***, my first true love was in high school, I was 16 (now 44), I still have dreams about him. We got into a silly argument and he went out with another girl...and got her pregnant. Being the type of person he was, he married her, although I spent the night before their wedding with him and he gave me a silver ring and told me he would always love me. I was so brokenhearted that I left the state and got married myself on the rebound and then divorced. I heard he divorced her many years later, but I was never able to find him as he is not listed in the book and his parent's land and home are now a subdivision. I am remarried now to a wonderful man, so I just keep my silver ring and my memories and life goes on.

What a bittersweet story.
The "one that got away" for me was a boy that I was madly in love with in high school. He had a girlfriend, so we were just friends in his eyes. I dated other guys, but my heart belonged to him.
He married his highschool sweetheart, and moved to Texas. He's a doctor with two grown children now.
I'll never forget that ache in my chest everytime he would look at me....wow, as I'm writing this, it seems like yesterday.
