If I’ve read this correctly, you’re saying you were 19 when this happened? That seems too young to be under such tremendous pressure to be in a relationship or to extrapolate anything meaningful from the success or failure of prior relationships.
Possibly. But I was worried by the fact that it seemed awfully tempting not to do relationships at all and just to declare myself off limits at the start. I didn’t want to do that without definitive evidence. And I had been watching a lot of my close friends engage in casual or serious relationships for years. 19 is not that young.
