You never get a second chance to make a first impression. Therefore, what happens on a first date can set the course of your future.

When it comes to romance, everything hinges upon that first interaction. When you are first attracted to someone it may be something as simple as a gaze, or locking eyes that let’s you know there is plenty of chemistry between the two of you.

All we wanted were a few stolen moments with the cute boy, but we rarely, if ever, got them.

Every once in a while a good guy slips through the cracks. Maybe you had a high school boyfriend that is always on your mind, or a fling from that summer you spent in London. Perhaps it is just your average, run of the mill ex, and you can no longer remember why you broke up. With a whole new crop of networking sites popping up, it seems like a lot of people are curious about whatever happened to the guy that got away.

Henry was a good guy. You two had a lot of fun, he got along well with your parents and he had excellent taste in foreign films.
