10 year old boyfriend - Umm, you should kiss me (he was so smooth, LOL)
Me - No way dude
Boyfriend - Other people get to kiss their girlfriend
Me - So. You ain't putting your lips on me
Boyfriend - Well, she said if I made her my girlfriend, she'd kiss me *points to girl standing 10 feet away*
Me - Whatever, guess you got a new girlfriend then *boyfriend walks off into the sunset with his new girlfriend who was willing to give up the goods . . . . wench* LOL
So I learned a harsh reality that 9 year old shouldn't have to learn. He will leave you for the girl who gives him what he wants. I considered wrapping my little 9 year old hands around his gullet, but didn't. Instead I licked my wounds for the next couple years, enjoyed telling guys that I didn't want a boyfriend. I started dating again at the ripe old age of 12 (you know, cause I was so mature now). I was never single again. How is someone never single again from the age of 12 on? I'll tell you more in a little bit.
How old were you when you started dating? When was your first heart break and how did you deal?
It typed this entire post then save it proofread. I visited Natalie @ Mommy of a Monster and learned about the new word game that she and her blog friends came up with. Check it out. It's loads of fun. This week's word is gullet - one definition is throat (technically I used it in my post as neck, LOL)
You rocked it!! I actually laughed out loud at your bad-ass 9 year old self!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the shout out, and for joining in!!
wow I don't even remember my 1st boyfriend. props to you.
ReplyDeleteI was 13 when I was first kissed behind a hot dog stand...Oh yea can't get more romantic than that :)Got my first heartbreak a few days after that and I cried for days after that because I swore love was going to be like those dang disney movies....damn you Little Mermaid lol
ReplyDeleteWow, I did not date. But I gave my first kiss at the age of 13 during one summer and then in the winter to the guy I liked since the age of ten. It all comes late with me. The day after we kissed he came looking for me but I sent him away with a flying kiss because I was scared my mum will find out I was seeing a guy. I then phoned him few days later and he asked me "What do you want?" That was the first heartbreak question.
ReplyDeleteI never cried but just thought he was stupid and rude.
I love that you jumped into our new meme, but I really loved your story and how you stood your ground to boys at age 9!
ReplyDeleteLOL! I love your blog... just found you through Amber! Following you now.. have a great week!
ReplyDeleteWhen I was 13, my first boyfriend dumped me for my bff, because she could talk on the phone to boys at night. Also, he didn't have the nerve to dump me, so she did it for him.
ReplyDeleteHugs and Mocha,

Hehe I loved this post! I was actually 5 when I had my first "boyfriend"...of course that only lasted for a day.
ReplyDeleteHow true is this statement...even at 9!
ReplyDelete"He will leave you for the girl who gives him what he wants."
I had my heart broken at 10. I tried to give Tom Butler (see, I still remember his name!) a heart shaped cookie for Valentines Day. He ate it and then ran off laughing with his friends. Oh the shame...
ReplyDeleteThanks for your visit to mine earlier :)
Jonny Rogers! My kindergarten boyfriend...ooohh, how I loved to watch him go down that yellow slide! ;)
ReplyDeleteWow, these men start out young don't they? Must be in the genes. lol
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by and commenting on my Not Me! Monday post. :) Following you via Google Friend Connect! Have a fabulous day.

Great use of the word gullet! Boys will be boys, huh? Whether they are 9, 39 or 90.
ReplyDeleteWOW! Great use of the word gullet. I also love that you used the word wench. I may have to appropriate that word.
ReplyDeleteOkay, now I'm super jealous that I didn't use GULLET in a more violent sense. LOVED it. Great image.
ReplyDeleteThat was hilarious! Your story kinda reminded me of Rudy and Bud from the Cosby Show back in the day! I didn't date until my latter teenage years.
ReplyDeleteDang I didn't have my 1st b/f until I was 14...not that I didn't want one!
ReplyDeleteAwesome story, and good for you for not giving up the goods!
Aww! I remember my first boyfriend. I was like 7 years old and we grew up together. We stayed close up until I turned about 16, and then I started to widen out and hang out with my older sisters more. It was definitely a learning experience.
ReplyDeleteOh, but my point is, YOU GO GIRL! Don't give the boys what they want, LOL!
Hate to say it, but I was a three timer floozy when I was 9, "going with" 3 different little boys. I thought I was cool, but maybe indecisive was more like it!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the visit!
Woo hoo, you go girl!! I didn't start dating till I was 17 because I was a giant nerd. Still am, in a lot of ways :)
ReplyDeleteYou were a bad ass at age 9!! And nice use of the word gullet, btw. :-)
ReplyDeleteVery cute! Thanks for stopping by my blog. I enjoyed reading a few posts (I love heels too girl. May post some pics of mine as well!)
ReplyDeleteand now Im folowing your blog. Planning to visit St Croix in October! Seems we have much in common. (kinda) Coco
Creative use of the word gullet! I was a late bloomer. My first real experience with a boyfriend was the same experience with a boyfriend that left me for someone who would give up the goods, was when I was in high school. I'd say exactly how old I was, but it is just sad.
ReplyDeleteGood for you for not giving in at 9! Wow, I hope my kids are slow like me. :)
Larry G wanted to be my boyfriend from 4-6 grade. I finally caved in 6th grade but moved in 7th. He has impregnated like 4 different girls, so I guessed I dodged a bullet ;)
ReplyDeleteI LOVE your story! And great use of the WOW! Isn't it so funny how old we think we are when we are really just babies! I didn't kiss a boy until I was nearly 17. I guess I was a late bloomer.
ReplyDeleteawwww, not so great that your heart was broken at the tender age of 9. so is the moral of the story to give your man what he wants? =) hhmm, my 1st crush I was 11, he was 12...we kissed at the town fair, well he kissed me lol. it happened so fast i almost missed it haha! great nostalgic post here =)
ReplyDeleteI love your story. It's a great example of a strong little girl! Will definitely share this with my boys when they are a little older. After all, I don't want them to be like your pushy 10 yr old boyfriend!
ReplyDeletetwenty-three for the first date. twenty-eight for the heartbreak. holed up in my apartment for two months, smoked a crapload of cigarettes and drank a lot of liquor.
