He was tall, handsome and we were roughly the same age, and I knew he liked me. Whenever there was a church outing, he&#8217;d give me a lift in his car, and end up spending the day in my company more than with anyone else.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>My friends were beginning to hint that we were becoming a couple, although we weren&#8217;t officially dating. I was waiting for him to make that first move.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>When it came I didn&#8217;t recognise it and made the biggest mistake of my life.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;d been the first to arrive at a Saturday afternoon church outing, at a secluded beach south of the city. Rather than step out of the car, we sat there for a few minutes in silence admiring the view. Actually, my insides were tied in knots just being in such close proximity to him, and I don&#8217;t think I even noticed the beauty of the place we were parked.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>He turned toward me, placed one arm around my shoulders and with his other smoothed the hair from my forehead and said, &#8216;We&#8217;re all alone. What would you like to do?&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll remember those words the rest of my life.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Being young, inexperienced and shockingly bashful, I couldn&#8217;t tell him how I felt, that I wanted him to kiss me.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>His eyes were the deepest blue\u2014I was lost, but instead of opening my mouth to say what was on my heart, I said, &#8216;I&#8217;d love to go for a jog!&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>If idiocy had a name that day, it was surely mine. I had no idea where those dumb words came from, and I&#8217;ve regretted them ever since.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.com\/B00JON7JYO\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-436\" src=\"https:\/\/www.doorflower.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/looselipsINSTAdf7-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"looselipsINSTAdf7\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.doorflower.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/looselipsINSTAdf7-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.doorflower.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/looselipsINSTAdf7-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.doorflower.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/looselipsINSTAdf7-100x100.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.doorflower.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/looselipsINSTAdf7.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll never forget the disappointed look in his eyes, and the slight groan that came from him. &#8216;You want to go for a jog?&#8217;\u00a0He pulled his arm back and just as I was about to say, &#8216;No, I didn&#8217;t mean that,&#8217;\u00a0our friends showed up, honking their car horns and parking right next to us.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The moment was over.
