Ricki Yasha TarrA Crushing Question!

Who was your first ever crush? How old were you?
How do you feel about them now?
Sir_Osis_of_LiverI had changed schools for grade 5 ('79-'80). Charlene in another grade 5 class made it known that she had a crush me. So, I figured I should have a crush on her right back. So we started playing at lunch hour, as you do.
We were roughhousing one lunch hour, and she knocked me on my back and attempted to pin me. She missed and sat on my face. In a skirt.
We were teased mercilessly after that, and broke contact. A year later, I'd changed schools again. I never saw her again.
To add insult to injury, Monty Python's Contractual Obligation Album came out a few months later, featuring "Sit On My Face".
If we were together in a hallway, there would almost inevitably be someone singing that one to us.
It's a funny story, now, but mortifying at the time.
