of our woman tribe. Your aunt sounds like a remarkable woman and you were lucky to have so many educated women in your family to set a good example. I have one friend who is writing her memoirs about the abortion battle and she is fierce. My ex-mom-in-law is 94 and she taught me so much about art and how to appreciate it. My grandmother once told me, "If you can get to where you can cook good enough, you can get just about anyone to come to your table." She was right.
The HS boyfriend was history by prom night. I broke up with him after I discovered his deep feelings for me but my mom knew we were having sex and she wouldn't let me. He also stalked me and cried, so my mom made me take him back. I didn't have sex with him after that, though, which naturally led to him dumping me. Mom said I deserved it.
