Your first ever date
 

Probably not a forum sort of thing but I thought this might be a bit of fun. After I had posted on another thread about Cashie most probably being able to remember his very first date, I thought I’d start a thread about the very first date ever that other members of Accy Web had. Was it an enjoyable date or a disaster? A bright night or a fright night?

What I consider my first proper ‘grown-up’ date was with a young man who was temporarily staying near where I lived. He was good-looking, smart, polite, and about 20. I think I was 16. We got talking one day and he told me where he came from, what he did for a living, lots of things about himself. Then he asked me if I would like to go on a date with him to a (wait for it) wrestling match. Am pretty sure it was at King George’s Hall. Had never seen wrestlers performing so I said I would love to, and that is what we did.

Forget the connotation, there was no ‘wrestling’ when we got back home. I had been a bit apprehensive about what would happen when he took me home and have to say I was a tad disappointed when he just said how much he had enjoyed the evening but didn’t even attempt to kiss me goodnight. Later on I found out quite by chance why he was so well-behaved – he was getting married a couple of weeks later to his pregnant girlfriend!!!! Somehow that was one little thing he forgot to tell me.

Well, although my memory is fairly sharp….I cannot recall my first grown up Date.
It can’t have been much of a success if I don’t remember it.
I did not have a lot of boyfriends….I think probably only three before I met my husband….so I think I led a fairly sheltered life.
I don’t think I missed out on anything as we have been married now for 55 years…..and only this morning he asked how long he had known me…..it is 57 years…..so not a bad score.
