boy crazy
Still. Boy crazy. . . still! Really?!
I had a boyfriend, Keith, when I was 5. He held the bus for me. I may have written about him already. Then, when that ended, I gave up on boys until I was 9. I haven't stopped since.
It's annoying this recognition, followed by smiles, and then the turn. Jesus. In 8th grade my turnover for boyfriends was every 2 weeks. Not that I was a slut--I wasn't.
Now, it seems I have gone back to the 2 week turnover, except that the entire relationship happens in my own imaginings. I don't go after anyone anymore. When someone comes on too strong, I balk. But on any given day, I'll have 2 to 3 crushes going on. Flirations. Smiles, verbal exchanges. Teasingings.
Is it me or is it that the longer we are in school, the less functional we get in the relationship department? What is with this commitment phobia that so many grads seem to have?--and even professors for that matter.
