So I liked to say that I was one of the unicorns of TPR... i.e. straight, single, female... just not that many of us

Well now there's one less unicorn!

I was at SFDK for the season pass preview for S:UF as a single rider, hanging out with other single rider enthusiasts (mostly ACErs), and talking about TPR. I think it may have been during the breakdown when I was standing on the stairs and noticed someone with a 2012 WCB shirt wayyyy in the back and said, "Oh look, there's a TPR member!" Next time I went through, I passed right by the same guy and was like, "Yeah! Go TPR!!!" and high-fived him. In my head I was like, "DAMN, this guy is cute... he's probably gay."

Shortly after, I was left a single rider again. By the time I got to the station, I still didn't have a buddy so I figured I'd just be riding alone. Next thing I know, I turn around and the TPR guy (rolercstrluvr) is standing right behind me smiling ear to ear. I was so happy to hang out with him and ride the coaster... we kept marathoning it until noon.

Then, we decided to hang out together the rest of the day. We did many of the animal exhibits and goofed off and had fun. We both felt an instant connection and just decided to make it FBO.... so now we also have to make it TPRO. ;)

We like to describe our feelings like this: If most people's relationships are like a wacky worm, our relationship is like this:

Which we hope to ride together some day. :)

I have a pending date either this weekend or next. We haven't talked much but I already found three things we have in common: we're both Christian, Christian rock is our favorite genre, and we're both musicians (I play drums and she sings). The stereotype of high school relationships being meaningless and pointless isn't entirely true, my parents met in high school and my cousin met her husband in high school, I know quite a few couples who have been together for at least a year, some even more like 3 years, and one couple's been together for 4 years. I hope it works out.

To piggy back off what you said...

I am 27 and graduated 10 years ago (WOW I feel OLD lol). Anyway, there are many couples now married that met when we were all in high school.
I may not know everything about coasters... what I do know is they are my life...

I've been with my boyfriend for almost four years now, and we met my sophomore (his freshman) year of high school. We've been living together in college for a little over a year now and we're doing just fine!

Hit it and quit it. Words to live by when you are in your early 20's, since lets be honest...

Rarely will you get lucky and find "the one" on your first go around. Also, you probably don't even know what you want yet.

But to each his or her own.

I wouldn't say meaningless and pointless. I think all high school relationships have benefit even if they don't work out in the long run (and there are definitely some that do!) It's all about what you learn from the experience. As a Christian, I believe that God sometimes uses young relationships to teach you things that will benefit you in future relationships, and help you grow closer to God and grow as a person... even if the relationship doesn't work out.

I hope this works out for you! :) (And all the commonalities you two have I think are great!)

^ I don't know why, but your response totally made me laugh! Insanely!

I am currently in a "relationship" but if you asked if I had a girlfriend I would say "ish." It's long distance and neither of us are super serious about it because she lives in San Francisco but we are both total Disney nerds and have quite a bit in common. I hope it works out but I am also 21 so if something more local ends up happening I may end up jumping on that, but for the moment it seems to be going well so far.
