Or, is it the first kiss I had from someone I had a DEEP crush on?<\/p>\n<p>Meh&#8230;I&#8217;m feeling generous. I&#8217;ll give you both! The first one is a very short story anyway! His name was David. He was 5 years old, as was I (well, actually, I still might have only been 4 &#8211; yeah! I like, soooo started young! Lol). He had red hair and freckles, but I thought he was VERY cute. I had a swing set in my back garden and he came over to my place to play and we kissed by the swing set! So cute!<\/p>\n<p>The first REAL kiss I had. The first very memorable kiss I had was from a guy I had been crushing on for YEARS! He shall remain nameless (to protect me as much as him!) but I&#8217;ll refer to him by his initals, B Mc. It was the middle of 1989, and I had been crushing on B Mc for 2 or 3 years by this time. I had tried to get him interested in me in the past. I knew his sister, so asked her for his phone number and called him a few times &#8211; heart pounding &#8211; never really knowing what to say. It never worked! Then, one night, I was babysitting for his sister. B Mc&#8217;s brother (and the brother of my friend&#8230;B Mc&#8217;s sister) was getting married, and B Mc had come back to his sister&#8217;s place to stay. He knew I was babysitting her kids for her, so he came over to my place as a ruse of pretending to check on the kids. They were all fine and asleep. I don&#8217;t really remember how it happened exactly but suddenly I found myself sitting on his lap and we snogged (or &#8220;pashed&#8221;, as we call it in Oz). For quite a time. And then, eventually&#8230;one thing led to another&#8230;and that night I lost my virginity. I was 18. Yes&#8230;I at least waited until I was an adult &#8211; well, I *say* waited. It wasn&#8217;t like that, really. I&#8217;d have done it YEARS before if a guy had wanted me! If B Mc had wanted me when I was first crushing on him &#8211; I would have then!<\/p>\n<p>Nothing ever eventuated from my &#8220;dalliance&#8221; with B Mc. He just used me and spat me out. And sadly, I let him, for several months :-(( But then I met my first real boyfriend, so B Mc was loooong forgotten.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Well&#8230;is it the first EVER kiss I had with a member of the opposite sex that WASN&#8217;T a relative?
