To preface this story I first want to say that I am not the best storyteller. But I’ve been asked to share this story, and it is an entertaining story, so here it goes.
I was a naïve little junior in high school. My life revolved around dance class and schoolwork. I had a couple good friends whose lives were similar and other than that didn’t talk much to other people. I was known to be quiet, innocent, and hardworking. People were always surprised when I mentioned smoking or drinking. They weren’t activities that I did regularly, but I did occasionally partake in them. So while I certainly wasn’t innocent, I wasn’t a wild child either, that would come later.
The one area where I was beginning to be a bit devious was with sex. I was the first of my group of friends to have a boyfriend and have sex. However, I quickly realized that I wasn’t interested in him and broke up with him. Shortly after I came out as bi (a whole other great story) and slept with a girl for the first time too. Second semester sophomore year, I began hooking up with one guy who I would continue to see throughout high school.
