Today would be my 13th anniversary
…if I was one of those people who somehow parlays their first high
school relationship into something that succeeds through adulthood.
He was a lovely boy, but that was not in the cards for us.
It’s not that I have obsessively retained every detail of my teenage
affairs, but we started dating on the anniversary of the École
Polytechnique massacre, so that serves as my reminder every year.
Romantic!
