I Want to Love You Madly

Getting together and breaking up is never easy to do...if it was the Backstreet Boys, N*SYNC, 98 Degrees, LFO and everyone else would never have made it big (Yes, I really did just include LFO in that group-I mean Summer Girls, come on). Here are two stories about love and loss in elementary school:

My friend who teaches 4th grade found this note being passed during class:

Boy: Do you like me...circle yes or no?

Girl: Ew, no. Why would you think that?

My first thought was "You go girl!" and then I thought: "Is that line really still used? Good thing she turned him down."

And here is one from my class-it's a card one of my students gave to a boy. On the front was a picture of them holding hands:

Dear J,

I am very sad that you broke up with me. Please be my friend.

Love, K.

I hate to think of how many years of this both of them have ahead of them.
