What was your dating life like in Middle and High School?

Question

Mine was nonexistent. Although I was interested, it seemed like only the popular girls and guys dated.

I used to think it was completely non-existent, but I noticed a few things that made me realise I was just holding holding myself back. There was a guy who screamed my name for at least 20 minutes to tell me that I had left my wallet on my desk. When I went back to the classroom, I saw " I love you,..." written on my desk. I never talked to him about it. I just thought he was joking or something, but I assume he was serious since he everytime I bumped into him, he seemed very sullen about something. I know it sounds a bit stupid, but I would like to add that I am gay guy living in a homophobic country, so he needed to be very discreet about it for his own good. I wish I had been more confident back then. He deserved an answer.

At first it was really bad. I had a crush on a girl from age 13 to 17, though it was a bit on and off. She was always nice to me and enjoyed my attention, but I was getting nowhere with her. In parallel there was also a girl that I went to dancing classes with. I could touch her and hold her close as required in the dance, but again she would not go out with me otherwise.

At 16 I went out with a girl who I knew from childhood and I kissed her when I took her back to her house. This is a really nice memory and a bit of a turning point.

Then, in the final year I had my first girlfriend and we stayed together for more than four years. This was really great and school ended on a positive note for me.

Middle school was non-existent and I wouldn't have been allowed to date anyway not that I was trying to. In high school, got my first boyfriend my senior year, he was my prom date, dated in college, the whole works. I remember being so friggin' happy to not leave high school "a loser" having never dated anyone and having a prom date. You see all these movies where every girl and guy is dating in high school and then you're like why aren't I doing those things, but it worked out, so yea me, I guess.

I didn’t date. I actively barked and growled them away. Not literally, but sometimes less and some worse lol.

Shin kicks, body throws, death stares, and smart talks. I was not letting just any guys in my pants lol and one had to trick me into a kiss… yeah, we all were that crazy lol

AviatorTom · Answer

I didn't date at all in Middle School, though I did attend some coed dances, but nit as a date.

In High School, it was similar (coed dances, no dates) until my senior year, where I started going out with girls and took a date to my senior prom.

I really didn't start serious dating until I was in college.

Pinay_ako · Answer

I had two boyfriends in high school. One when I was a sophomore, the second was when I was a senior. Middle school were just crushes. Mutual understanding.

Genie23 · Answer

What dating life? I stayed away from guys. Anyone who would approach me and expressed interest/feelings for me. I'd get scared and literally walk away fast.

jennifer_bloom · Answer

I had guys flirt with me but only two asked me out.

Avicenna · Answer

Non-existent until I turned 15, then it took off.

virtue2332 · Answer

Non existent until I hit my growth spurt freshman summer going into softmore year. Then it was on and cracking. Literally went from first kiss to BJ to losing my Virginity before Christmas break all different girls it happened fairly quick and completely put me on a different path. Before I was a straight A student after my priorities changed and I cut a lot tried to be cooler than I was. I was kind of a dumb ass from then on til like my second year in the Air Force. Crazy how fast and wild things were until you have a daughter of your own. I now have 3 no boys and live in constant fear that one of them will bring home some shit head version of me at that age.

Nirghata_Vrishaghata · Answer

Middle school? Nope. Was living in Singapore back then and only thing available was school, homework, more school and tutoring classes and some extracurricular activities, no time for girls and girls didn’t have time either.

High school I attended a boarding school in England, had a few dates and was very keen on this Japanese girl but as things began heat up her family relocated to Romania. After that was briefly involved with an American gal whose parents were diplomats. It lasted for 2 years then I graduated and moved to USA for uni while she remained in England for another year then she moved to France for uni. Still keep in touch with her.

Paulalove98 · Answer

It was nonexistent the end of high school pretty much, middle school I had a boyfriend but it was just lovey dovey stuff lol and sophomore year I was with a really nice guy but sadly he ended up moving so he thought it was best we broke up, I didn’t get the high school sweetheart love I thought I’d have so you’re not alone.

Googlemyahoo · Answer

Girls liked me

My first gr 9 Highschool dance a senior I didn’t know wanted to fight me because a girl he wanted that I didn’t know liked me 🤷‍♂️

It kinda went like that. People got jealous of me quite abit. I would just joke and talk to girls then find out they liked me. I had another classmate try to fight me in gr 11 marketing class because his girlfriend dumped him to chase me. I didn’t even know he just came at me

Never really took advantage of that until gr 12. That year was pure debauchery

Boomchakalaca · Answer

Few people liked me and didn't like any guy in middleschool except this one girl. In highschool, a guy liked me ( i didn't like him) but then i had a few crushes on men for a potential homecoming date and scored on one of em.

Justmeagain1 · Answer

I dated one guy - I wanted to marry him I was so in love - he was older. He was hot as shit back then, polite but rough round edges and fun. He married somebody else , then 20 years later it came full circle again and we were together for 5 near 6 years. Now we sleep in separate beds and are separated. He is still hot as shot and edgy as :)

Sour-rose · Answer

Pretty much nonexistent. Sure, i had boys hitting on me but none of them fit me. And to make things worse, I was still a little rug and hid in my hoodie. I didn't know why I hid but I didn't want people to talk to me. Much less someone I knew from elementary. :x

High school went a little better, wasn't hiding so much in my hoodie. But still ain't datin any of those n*ggas. One tried to fill me up and I made an excuse to dip. And made sure he didn't touch me.

AaronKrieger · Answer

I dated some, but not a lot, as I realized early on that I prefer being single. Life is WAY less complicated when single and you're happier. If I genuinely liked her, then I overthought a lot and it was exhausting, although I was an asshole if I barely liked her. So I became picky with deciding if I want to date a girl, as I evaluate how compatible it is long-term.

Anonymous · Answer

Literally scaping from every guy that showed interest and being rude to them. My bff and I were still pretty childish actually, we only cared about dolls, youtube diy's, beauty tutorials, fashion, going out with friends, and neither of us were ready for a relationship. She had a boyfriend the year before graduating tho. I got my first boyfriend in college.
