I, too, had my fling with Rosy Palm... and her five little sisters!
I consider myself very lucky. I married my first love when I was 22, she was 20. More than 6 years later, I love her six times as much.
I eyed her for nearly two years before finally asking her out. Prior to falling in love with her, I had never even thought that I was ever in love, which is why I consider myself lucky. Never experienced heartache over an infatuation that was mistaken for love.
