You're doing great writing two books at once, Beth! Yes, I remember you sharing this before. What I noticed more is how mature you were for your age and disciplined. Yes, those hormones should come with warning stickers! I wish I could point out those warnings to my grandkids!

Thank you, Helen, When I started the book "Anatomy of a Marriage" it was meant to be only a first chapter and I didn't think I would continue it but I can't seem to let it go.

Comment from Liz O'Neill
That was a funny topic. I remember we played spin the bottle for my 16th birthday. This is a very entertaining chapter. Good job kissing games are always fun to read about to write about and to see happening.

Thank you, Liz. I appreciate the review and comments. I didn't like the idea of kissing a boy I didn't know that well. My cousin wasn't a problem.

Comment from Debbie D'Arcy
Such a sweet coming of age chapter! It's almost with sadness that I see you growing up and away from that insecure young girl. I'm sure there's much more to come in your story but we all remember that little spark of electricity that marked the beginning of adulthood. Thank you for sharing another engaging chapter, Beth. Take care Debbie

Thank you, Debbie. I'm still pretty naive at that point in my life but at fifteen but kids grew up fast back then.

Comment from Ric Myworld
Yes, hormones can certainly create a mess in a hurry, but it was so much fun. LOL. And at the time, cousins were just like anyone else, two lips and a libido. Thanks for sharing.

Yes, those hormones pack a punch even with cousins. I was a good vacation and lot more fun not have a parent watching your every move.

Comment from royowen
It was funny back then, with boys seemingly being able to 'sow their wild oats' but somehow for girls that was forbidden, but there were girls around who seemed to more 'carefree' thank others. So it was an interesting time in a young boy's life. There was no sex education whatsoever back then, well done, Beth, blessings Roy
Typo : Sometime of(f) from work. 2: Things we might (to) together. Do?

Thank you, Roy. There was definitely a different standard of boy than for girls. I appreciate your review.

Comment from Marilyn Hamilton
Oh those pesky hormones! lol Always causing problems. Great story as always. Amazing recollection. One small typo.
I wasn't interested in having to go anywhere with a guys I didn't know. (Either remove the "a" or change "guys" to "guy"
Thanks for sharing.

Comment from Michael Ludwinder
This is such a fun glimpse at growing up. I love how you've captured the awkwardness and excitement of young moments with such humor. The relationship between you and Dave feels genuine. The way you show innocence with the awareness of what's expected is written so well. This entire piece is well written and so enjoyable to read.
