College sweethearts

1 I smile at my two lovely daughters and they seem so much more mature than we,
their parents, when we were college , who's 21, had a boyfriend in
her freshman year she thought she would marry, but they're not together
anymore. Melissa, who's 19, hasn't had a steady boyfriend yet. My daughters wonder
when they will meet
a classic fairy-tale romance heading for marriage from the outset. Perhaps, they're
right but it didn't seem so at the time. In a way, love just happens when you least
expect it. Who would have thought that Butch and I would end up getting married to

4 I worried what he'd think of me. True, we lived in a time when a dramatic shift
in sexual attitudes was taking place, but I was a traditional girl who wasn't ready for
the new ways that seemed common on campus. Butch looked superb! I was
not immune to his personality, but I was scared. The night when he announced to the
world that I was his girlfriend, I went along with him. And then I suddenly thought:
