Interference

I met Debbie Lohman during my first Friday night high school dance.

We connected instantly and I could hardly wait to see her again that following Monday at school. We became a couple shortly thereafter and we remained together for over a year.

However, Dad was not happy with the idea that I was going steady, saying I shouldn’t get myself tied down. For nearly two years I struggled against his push to have me break-up with Debbie.

Near the end of our junior year, I finally succumbed to his wishes and ended our relationship. I still feel like a creep for having allowed myself to hurting Debbie like I did.
