That high school relationship brought about a lot of firsts for me (first boyfriend, first kiss, first sex).  It began at the end of junior year, and lasted five months. Then I ended it (on Halloween!), and we were broken up for five months. Then we got back together, half-heartedly, for about another five months. It was during the second go-round, at the very end of senior year, that we popped each other’s cherries.

Five months is significantly longer than any relationship I’ve had since. I’m not sure any of the others even count as relationships, actually!  So, despite what this comic may imply, it is likely that it was my own shortcomings, not those of the High School Boyfriend, that caused things to end.
