College sweethearts
1 I smile at my two lovely daughters and they em so much more mature than
we, their parents, when we were col ege sweethearts. Linda, 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 wil meet "The One", their great love. They think
their father and I had a classic fairy-tale romance heading for marriage from
the outt. Perhaps, they're right but it didn't em so at the time. In a way,

2 We met through my col ege roommate at the university cafeteria. That fateful
night, I was merely curious, but for him I think it was love at first sight. "You
have beautiful eyes", he said as he gazed at my face. He kept staring at me al
night long. I real y wasn't that interested for two reasons. First, he looked like
he was a real y wild boy, maybe even dangerous. Second, although he was
very cute, he emed a little weird.
3 Riding on his bicycle, he'd ride past my dorm as if "by accident" and pretend
to be surprid to e me. I liked the attention but was cautious about his
wild, dynamic personality. He had a charming way with words which
would charm any girl. Fear came over me when I started to fal in love. His
exciting "bad boy image" was just too tempting to resist. What was it that
attracted me? I always had an excel ent reputation. My concentration was
solely on my studies to get superior grades. But for what? Col ege is suppod

education, and graduation was just one mester away. But I hadn't had any
fun; my life was stale with no component of fun! I needed a boyfriend.Not just
any boyfriend.He had to be cute. My goal that mester became:

4 I worried what he'd think of me. True, we lived in a time when a dramatic shift
in xual attitudes was taking place, but I was a traditional girl who wasn't

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: "Oh my gosh! Am I his girlfriend? How
did that happen?" Then he whispered sweet words in my ear and said, "I'm
going to marry you one day and I wil be a lawyer. You wil e."

rebel without a good future. He's my boyfriend becau I hate my boring
student life. I just want to have fun."
*6 Sure enough, the fol owing month, I found out he had failed al his
cours. Conquently, he was going to be expel ed from the university. To
my disgust, he emed resigned to his fate. I knew there was hope, so I led
him to the col ege cretary for reconsideration.
*7 "You are going to graduate with a BA in political science
from UPenn and proceed to the Col ege of Law," I told him, lodging an appeal
on his behalf, which was approved. Butch was granted reconsideration. And,
once we became steadies, he coordinated his studies and social life, passing
al of his class. He eventual y studied law.
8 Despite Butch's somewhat wild character, at his core, he is always a perfect
clangentleman and derves a lot of credit for that.True, he'd sometimes take
the liberty of displaying his love by planting a kiss on my lips right in front of my
astonished friends who watched and disapproved. But the truth is we had a
pure and responsible relationship for ven ful years. Sitting by the palm trees,

hand in hand, we would listen to romantic songs, watch the sunt,
and weave dreams of being together with children of our own, forever.
