High School Sweethearts

1: Steve and Anna grew up in a small town called Greenville. In high school, they hung out with the same crowd. They got along very well, and they started going out together. Anna was Steve’s first love, and he was her first love, too.

2: After they graduated, Anna went away to collage, while Steve attended a college nearby. They would get together about once a month, when Anna flew back home to visit her parents.

3: But the long-distance relationship didn’t work out, and they decided to break up. A year later, Anna’s family moved away from Greenville, and Steve lost touch with her.

4: When Steve was 35, he was ready to settle down with someone, but no one seemed right. He still thought about Anna. Then he heard about a Web site that helps people find old classmates. He signed up immediately.

5: He discovered that Anna was a member. He wrote her an e-mail, and she wrote back right away. It turned out that Anna was still single and was looking for him, too! They made plans to meet at a restaurant in her city.

6: When they saw each other, all the old memories came back, and they started going out again. Within a few months, they were married, and they are now living “happily ever after.” Sometimes your first love turns out to be the best.
