    Text - theglitteriest 16.0k points 23 hours ago He French kissed me after eating a bacon double cheeseburger with onions and all sorts of other stinky stuff. I told him I had a bad experience with French kissing with a guy before him (LIES, he was my first kiss obvi) and I would appreciate if he never did it again. Bonus cringe: I rubbed vapor rub near my eyes to make myself cry when I broke up with him and told him I was overwhelmed and needed to focus on school (I was in 8th grade)

    Text - 19 hours ago nemophile 11.4k points I was super shy back in the day and I really really liked this guy who had weirdly flirted withh me in one of our classes. He told me I looked like some random celebrity when I wore my hair down and how hot she was... so I never wore my hair up again for the entirety of school. I replied later by slipping a note in his locker but didn't sign it. A few days after that, I threw in a t-shirt I thought he would like. He didn't know who it was from until wee

    Text - 21 hours ago x4 edited 17 hours ago edgarpickle 23.4k points I wrote the girl a poem. It included the phrase, "slightly too large nose" and also used the word K-mart. Edit: since there's been a little response to this, I tried to think back on how the poem went. It was something like this: "With your slightly too large nose and your great big heart, A love like this can't be found at K-Mart." Ugh

    Text - DeadlyKitten00 16.0k points 21 hours ago edited 21 hours ago I was a freshman in high school and a fairly large group of my friends and I went to see Juno in the theaters. Well afterwards my mom offers to drive my friends and my boyfriend home in the family mini-van. We wound up running out of seats so for some reason my mom decides to let me sit in the trunk of the van with my boyfriend, what could go wrong.

    Text - sixesand7s 21.2k points 22 hours ago x1 х1 edited 3 hours ago First real girlfriend in highschool, we used to talk over the voice calls on MSN messenger late at night. She wanted to just hear my voice, and I very quickly ran out of things to say, so she said I should just read whatever book I had around. She spent the next 30 minutes listening to my "Your new Gateway Computer and how to use it!" booklet

I did nothing, so she finally kissed me. In defense mode, I lick my lips all the way around with my tongue like Scooby Doo does with the cotton candy in the theme song intro. I even did the "reeheeheeheehee." Kill me

    Text - mastercait 21.1k points 20 hours ago I was 17. We had just had a fight. I drove to his house and blasted "Scars" by Papa Roach from my car and just stood awkwardly at the end of the drive way waiting for him to come out. I really wish this weren't true.
