How would you feel if you spent many years after high school, college, etc...single and waiting for the right person...only to meet up again with your first love and marry them?

Would that piss you off???? Would you be glad you had the time apart???? Would it freak you out????
 
An older friend of mine was a widow. She went home to her 50th class reunion. Her high school sweetheart (10th - 12th grades) was a widower. She flew up to Detroit, and he flew down to Virginia several times. I hadn't seen her in 3 years and just Sunday I found out that she and Don had married and were living in Detroit. Thelma is 78 now.

I, too, had a high school sweetheart for the same grades. I've only seen her a few times since 1965 when I left for the Navy, and then on to Viet Nam (we live almost 4 hours apart). Even though it's been so many years, she still has a piece of my heart.
I think it's wonderful that folks can reunite with an old love and spend the rest of their years together. But then, I'm just an old romantic.
 
It wouldn't piss me off. It would be good to have the time apart because you both will have changed over the years and so technically you're not really falling for the same person. It didn't work out earlier, so apparently the time apart was good and made you guys love each other more. It would be a bit funny, but I wouldn't be freaked out.

My English teacher married the guy she dated in high school. They dated in high school and then broke up and went off to college. He got married to another woman and had a child. Later on they met up again, he was divorced, and they fell in love all over. Now they've been married almost 10 years I think? They still have the first child and they all get along as a family and they still communicate with the ex-wife of the husband. They just had their own child together as well.
 
I think it's different for everyone and that you're never going to get a definite answer.

For me, although I'm not married, I recently got back with my first love. We were just in different places in our lives and I wanted to end the relationship because he was younger than me by a year and I was heading off to college and thought that situation would only complicate things -- but I never really got over him. I just couldn't find anyone better than him, we fit each other to a T. When we got back together it was amazing, it's hard to describe because he was the same yet completely different all at the same time. It's like he was the same guy I fell in love with, but he had matured -- he was a man now and that only made me love him more.

Again like I said the answer is different for everyone, but for me I'm glad we were apart because it gave us time to search while we matured. We got to explore the world and conclude that we really wanted each other -- and we had changed for the better. I'm very happy!

It wouldn't piss me off because my first love was a lovely guy, only problem was he lived in England, and I was in Scotland.
As I understand it he has never married and still asks after me via family and friends.
I am glad I have had a life without him though, because I wouldn't have the children I have now had I met and married him first time round.
Would be lovely to see him again though!
 
I would feel like it was meant to be.

Heres why.

First love is about innocence. It is, after all, your first real love. So you don't know any better. You are who you are. Without pretending to be someone else. You haven't been through heartbreak yet, and so you put yourself completely out there.
