Hollywood tells us that every person, at one time or another, fell in love with the perfect mate in high school. I never bought into that myth, and coming out of a bad relationship my Sophomore year, it seemed less true then ever. So no one was more surprised then I was when I just recently found my high school sweetheart. And while I'm hesitant to use the word "Love", it seems to be the best word to describe my feelings for her. So I wonder "How many of my fellow escapists have shared this experience?" Did Hollywood get it right? Or am merely I among a lucky few?
What's your story?
Okay, so basic clarification of definition may be in order here.

Had deep feelings for? Yes.
Went out to places with? Yes.
Even stayed over their house overnight? Sure.
Did they know I was there?

...

......moo-hoo. Moo-hoo-hoo.

I suppose I did. She was pretty cool for a while, then we settled into a cycle of repetitiveness. Eventually we only continued the relationship because we were used to it. So we broke up. I don't hold any hard feelings and consider the whole thing a good learning experience.

Is that a spin-off of High School Musical?

Yeah I had a high school sweetheart. About 6 months after we left school it all went to shit, badly. The life we planned together didn't go like it does in the movies, that is where Hollywood is wrong. In the end we had to go our separate ways. It's one of the most crushing things you can experience at a time when your life is changing and you're stepping out into the big bad world.

Still, ain't nothin' gonna slow me down, ain't nothin' gonna break my stride. Despite 4 years and other girlfriends along the way I guess a part of me will always love her.

High school sweetheart, yes. Hollywood... noooo, no. Just... no.

Hollywood never gets anything right. EVER! The closest I came to a "High School Sweetheart" was a redhead that had my heart for breakfast and lunch.

I started going out with my girlfriend in my senior year of high school. I say started because i had liked her since 7th grade and then left the school and her in my freshmen year and returned and suddenly she ended up coming out and tell me she liked ME.
Im not one for fate or whatever cuz that's usually just Hollywood fluff we're fed to make us all gushy inside for a film but i just felt right then and a year and a half later it still feels good and makes sense.
She moved away to arizona just last year too but we've been doing great thank God for technology today with AIM and other stuff its easy to simply sit down after a long day and talk or whatever.

But i can say dont be so worried about declaring it "Love" too many people treat that word like Kryptonite but its a normal and wonderful experience even if it can sting like hell eventually, anyways good luck with your high school sweetheart story! I'm still working on mine :)

There's a girl I met Sophomore year. We talked pretty much everyday and are still pretty good friends. That year I thought about thinking of her romantically and had an exceeding urge to kiss her one week, but I waved that thought from my mind and set it in my head that we're just friends. I even thought she liked me couple times too. I spent most of the end of that year talking to her about girls I was crazy about, these girls happen to be her friends.

Well it's Junior year now and this girl I carelessly waved away before is all I think about. These days our subject of conversation is the guy she has a crush for. Sure it's kinda rough now but I thank the heaven everyday that my Biology teacher seated us next together Sophomore year.

So yeah, I'll put that down as a yes.

I was a complete Dweeb at high school. I was pudgy, Awful Haircut, And i gave my mum too much control over my social life.

Being the unpopular slightly perculiar kid SUCKS.

I had one, went out with her for like a year and a half, we broke it off because her parents are dicks. On another note, to celebrate getting my full license(I can drive past nine and have more than one other person in the car) we played sexy truth or dare and it led to sex...she has a boyfriend.

I dated one guy from the end of freshman year, to the end of junior year. And another for the rest of junior year to the end of senior year.

I loved them both, but I really hate the second one right now. I feel stupid for ever having dated him. I guess I have to call them sweethearts though.
