And the very next year, her family moves away as she tearfully declares she'll never stop loving him.

Ten years later he's a high powered lawyer, and she's running a center for underprivileged children in the same city. They wonder about the other when reminiscing, but never realize they work only blocks away from each other. That is, until the owner of the building the Center for Kids Who Don't Have a Chance decides it's time to raze it to the ground. He sends Super Smart Lawyer Man to serve notice on Granola Girl and they realize who each other are.

Has their love survived all these years?

No. Because Super Smart Lawyer Man knows that children know poo poo about everlasting love and has become cynical and bitter. The building is destroyed, Granola Girl moves to SF, and the underprivileged children grow up to perpetuate the cycle of poverty and ignorance.

I'm more about the fact that the supposedly adult writer of that story desperately wants two 13 year olds to gently caress. And when it isn't happening on his/her schedule, yells at them in order to facillitate it.

EDIT: Also, why mention the little sister and intimate thatit's an abusive household atthe beginning of the story? It adds nothing to the rest of it and is just creepy.

Wow. That's a way creepier take than I had. And based on most of the STDH I've seen, probably more accurate.

It just reminded me of the first 5 minutes of every lovely RomCom of the late '80s/early '90s.

I think to make the brother seem like a tortured, angstly teenager. Like a 13yo Ryan Gosling from The Notebook.

I don't know why the storyteller thought their made-up story portrayed them in a good light at all. To me it sounds like a story of some (probable) pedophile stalking a couple of kids listening in on all their conversations and watching their every move, hoping they'll give him something titillating to watch.

It's shorthand. Ship these children far the gently caress away from their creepy neighbor.

Isn't inciting minors to conduct sexual activity like, illegal? Pretty sure you'd get a fairly stern talking to, at least.

In all fairness y'all do know that kissing and loving are different things, right

Of course, but the way that guy writes you know the followup is going to be him lurking outside her bedroom window yelling "gently caress ALREADY" one night.

So for you, say you're on a date and you've only just sat down and ordered at the restaurant and for some reason your date leans in and kisses you surprisingly, do you look at your watch and think that it is on now?

I got to the end and looked for some type of "read more" link, not because I desperately wanted to finish her sordid tale, but because it just... ends. There's no conclusion, no point, no wrapup. It's like she just paused in the middle of her story, waiting for someone to ask "and then what?"

The best part is how terrible the writer looks as a mother.

"Oh my baby fell? Sure, I'll take them to the hospital. Right after I finish my workout, that is".

"My child's ailments now stack up like dirty dishes until someone forces me to do something about it".

I managed to grab the IP addresses of the thugs that threw rocks at my friend.

Did they shout them out whilst punching the kid in a guy fawkes mask? Or is that just how internet kids these days introduce themselves in person. "Hi, my meat-name is Dave, but you probably know me as 19032.89123123.12312432"
