My first great romance was at the age of 15 with a man called Isaac who was very much not my boyfriend at the time. Isaac was not my first great love - that was a year later with a man called Alexander, who was also not my boyfriend- but he was my perfect fairy tale romantic hero

Puer Aeternus?
The Eternal Youth. :)
the latin word puer forms the root of the English word puerile.
{which would make a good scrabble term. i am not obsessed at all.]

Did your parents travel with you a lot? If so, what sorts of places? Did you like that?

They did :) Mostly they didn't get very far because we were poor, but I went everywhere where they went. E.g. they'd go for a party to their friends and just have all the little sleeping babies in one room while they smoked and drank and played cards in the other. My grandmothers were outraged that "the child is starting its nightlife before she's old enough to sit up", but I didn't seem to mind it as a baby because I just slept through every occasion and only woke up to demand food.
Mostly they just travelled to the seaside, or drove to Bosnia on impulse over the weekend [Aries dad]. Probably the furthest we travelled was to Russia when I was two, and I didn't enjoy the airplane and was a bit scared of all the newness but still I was always happy to be with my family.
I'd just sleep in the car and wake up in a new place and we were all together and I was happy with that.

I remember holding my Javanese boyfriend's face between my hands the day before I had to leave him and Java behind forever, touching his beautiful generous lips and the dreamy dimples that I had always tapped his cheek to summon back when he was sulky. And I knew that by the end of the next day and forever after there would only be empty air between my hands. So I just held his cheeks and hoped I would remember how he looked and how I felt about him. And then he cried all over my lap and made my skirt all wet. But I remember : ) Thank you for helping me to rainsinger

for me things that happen a second time never have the same magic as first time [after all they can't], but if i'm lucky they have a different sort of magic.
it sounds like you did get to spend together some wonderful time, and though things long distance often do get broken, i hope you get to spend some more.
so we can't say 'in love'. can't say 'boyfriend/girlfriend'.
i understand the latter, but for the former if you feel it - why not say it?just curious.
