How many boyfriends/girlfriends did you have during childhood?

[reecejackox]

I had 3 relationships

 

[tvguy]

None. Too busy being a kid.

I dated the same guy off and on for 3 years in high school and 2 other guys but both less then 3 months each. That’s it. Met my husband about 6 months after I graduated, married the following year, and have now been married over 40 years.

Just some group dates in high school, bunch of us going to McDonalds or bowling, nothing serious. First serious boyfriend was college. Now they start having bf/gf in middle school it seems.

Childhood? Could you narrow that down? I’m picturing an 8 year old.

 

[Sinder]

I consider childhood being a child, so can't say I had any boyfriends as a child.
As a teen I probably had 3 serious ones. Although one would have fallen into young adult teen years.

I always liked boys, starting in grade school. If it wasn't this one it was that
one. My first real boyfriend wasnt until junior year of HS. I broke up with him.He called over Xmas of our senior year and broke my heart around graduation. It caused a rebound relationship with a jerk for the next 5 years. If one thing hadn't happened, neither would the other. But, I'll always have a special place for the HS boyfriend, even if I know we'd never have made it long term.

I've had no significant other in my life at any age.

As a child? None and my parents wouldn’t have tolerate any such nonsense. They didn’t even like me putting heartthrob posters from the teenybopper magazines on my walls. I was allowed to date when I turned 16 and had a “steady” all during Grade 11.

I had my first kiss under a blanket with a boy when I was about ten. Does that count?

In High School I never had a "serious" girlfriend. We all kind of hung out and were friends but I had other interests that took most of my time. College was a different story...

 

[E&Cmom]

None. Not even in high school.

 

[MIGrandma]

In high school, I went steady with a junior when I was a freshman. We were together 2-1/2 years. Went with two other guys for 6-months each. Then met my husband in March 1975, married that September

Define kid and define relationships.
I had 2 boyfriends in high school. Various "going steady" for half a minute middle school "relationships" that were really just nothing.

 

[disneychrista]

Probably a dozen or so before I met my daughters' father when I was 17. All of them very innocent and none longer than 3 weeks.

 

[Kathryn Merteuil]

In high school, I think it was 3. Only one of which really amounted to anything, and it lasted way too long.

 

[mrodgers]

2 neighbor girls. Not dating, just, ah... exploring. Oh, and not at the same time with each...

High school, 1 not serious, dating. 1 was serious and went into the college years. Broke up and was happy until a coworker (also was in college with him) called me and asked if I wanted to go on a blind date with his very soon to be sister-in-law which is how we moved from college and work friends to being family.

Middle school - can we even call it a relationship? I "dated" 3 guys. One guy I dated for about 2 years... what this really meant is we were best friends and kissed.

High school - one guy. It started around Christmas of my freshmen year. We got married.
