Boy, did I ever. I met this guy at a senior dance at the local university after my class graduated from high school. I never even heard of him in school. My class was over 500 students, so it's not impossible that I never met him. Well, we started dating and he was the BEST date I've ever had. Before him I hadn't really dated, so much as "gone out" with guys or "hooked up" so to speak. This guy went about dating like I had always thought it should be done. He even got us involved in a dance class so he could become a better dancer! Everything was progressing really nicely, the kissing was getting a lot more intense and I was really starting to fall for this guy. I told my best friend about him on the phone, she grabbed her yearbook, (I didn't buy one) and started laughing then stopped herself. She wouldn't tell me why, she said I'd have to see for myself.
So a few days later we got together and I saw his picture and he had this God-awful hat that matched his suit (this was a bunch of years back) and I was so ashamed by that damned hat that I blew him off.
At one of the class reunions one woman had his last name and I asked who she was married to and it turned out to be my old boyfriend's brother. So I told her how shallow I was and wanted to tell him that I was sorry I was such a jerk. She laughed and said, "OH the hat! He wore that after he had brain surgery!" Geez, if I had only asked the guy what was with the hat, I could have kept going with the best guy I ever dated.
She assured me that he didn't seem devastated, he had a good job and was married and had 2 kids.
I'm glad his life is going well.
I haven't had such a good boyfriend since. But I don't believe in hanging on to regrets. I'm where I'm supposed to be and I'm happy.
