Things improved pretty rapidly after that.<br /><br />Rassles: All of this talking to old classmates has taught me how many of us shared the sense of alienation and insecurity you describe. People just coped in different ways. Some punched people. Others became cheerleaders.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11458043604859768732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3370001854804154118.post-73501442432144286362010-06-24T12:26:58.239-05:002010-06-24T12:26:58.239-05:00I definitely didn't fuck around in high school...I definitely didn't fuck around in high school. I was too busy hating everyone and being "misunderstood." Never got asked out or anything. <br /><br />I found out after high school that some of the guys used to call me The Real McCoy. Said I was this untouchable thing, because I never showed anyone how to care for me, or hinted that I wanted care in the first place. <br /><br />It made me cry, and then I pushed it away and pretended I didn't care.Rassleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12370070146085209687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3370001854804154118.post-82435239492047657032010-06-22T17:27:59.720-05:002010-06-22T17:27:59.720-05:00Where I grew up was more relaxed. Sleeping around...Where I grew up was more relaxed. Sleeping around was fine. Obviously, I don't know what the boys said in private, but there was never any overtly nasty judgement. Sadly, it worked the other way: any one who didn't (boy or girl) was judged a freak by boys and girls alike. It was fine, I enjoyed it although we weren't exactly the last word in finesse. All the same, although I've spent most of my life in monogomous relationships (by choice), some of my best sexual experiences have been casual (in the interstices).Pueblo girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04904318623281033442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3370001854804154118.post-81646352309765560102010-06-21T21:41:53.218-05:002010-06-21T21:41:53.218-05:00Uhm, hum, yeah, still not gonna touch that topic.....Uhm, hum, yeah, still not gonna touch that topic...I will say 'Fast Times at Ridgemont High' was on the other day and I watched the end and marveled at how times had changed just 7 years after we graduated....we seem quaint today but still had it goen' on....I have not watched Glee either...add that to the long list of shows...ps: Skinny dipping in that skanky river?
