    Okay, so this is gonna be a long one: I recently got back in touch with this guy I've known since 1st grade. He moved in 7th, moved back last year, and we just got back in touch 2 months ago. We're both 18/19 now. So a lot of time has changed since we've last seen each other. We actually got...
