The meeting

I never really felt comfortable in my own skin

I never really felt comfortable in my own skin. I was shy, easily embarrassed, constantly worried about doing or saying the wrong thing—looking back, I think I really struggled with social anxiety and low self-esteem.

Because of this, I didn’t really get into the dating scene—that, and with my small social circle it really seemed to me like everyone was just dating each other in varying combinations, and that weirded me out a bit.

I had my first boyfriend in grade 10, solely because my friends were starting to have boyfriends and I thought I should, too. It didn’t last long, because the whole thing just felt uncomfortable to me, because I only wanted a boyfriend because Michelle had one (a common theme for teenage me—it’s also why I wanted braces and blonde hair, and had a crush on pretty much every boy she crushed on).



The only dance for which I ever had a date

I found another boyfriend and fell madly in love when I was 16, but long-distance relationships don’t often work well for teenagers, so I was heartbroken by 17. After that, I just dated casually through my post-secondary years. Honestly, I didn’t really get into any major relationships that would be comparable to what I have with Mr. Dragon.
