James P

    • "Dated" me for three months, during the summer between 9th grade and 10th
    • Played the tenor sax in band
    • Asked me to the Spring Fling, although we had to be forced by friends to dance together
    • Had a jungle-themed bedroom
    • Was at least an inch shorter than me
    • Once made me a ham sandwich that literally contained nothing but bread and one piece of shaved ham
    • Had smelly feet
    • Ignored me on the first day of 10th grade, then called that night to ask if we could just be friends. We haven't spoken since.
