<p>well since we've all been through puberty by now, i hope that every one of us can post our experience about the first time we fell in love, and if by chance, you haven't fallen in love yet, at least say what your expectations of it are. </p>
<p>as for me, the first time i fell in love was sophomore year. it was unusual because we rarely spoke to each other yet in our minds we knew we were in love (or at least loved each other). we were both reluctant for some reason. if what i felt wasn't love, then it was the closest i've come to loving someone. we always made subtle references to each other in class as we discussed book themes or recited poetry or sang a cappella or even as we performed skits in spanish class. but the first clear indication i got was when my friend sang a song that more or less said i love you.
we shared the strangest things in common, and that's something because i had been living out of this world for the most part. we refused to be noticed by other people nor did we take interest in others but each other. i never thought i'd ever fall in love just because i was way too busy with many other things...but it really does creep up on you when you least expect it. our relationship was more of an appreciation for each other than any form of physical attraction. we both knew ourselves really well and had a different perspective on life from most people. that's why it was so hard for us to find love in the first place. but in the end, i had to leave DARN IT. we couldn't bring ourselves to say a formal goodbye so we didn't. our last moment together was having breakfast with our advising group. i then walked away to distract myself from awkward moments of silence and that was the last time we ever saw each other.</p>
