[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I went to an all-girls school and it definitely impacted me in a negative way socially.  It was obvious freshman year of college that all my peers were so much more confident around boys.  I felt awkward.  I was also sophisticated in many ways and well above average in looks.  I had four dates in one weekend in the second month of school, so there was interest, I just didn’t know how to handle it.  I did a lot of ghosting when a guy liked me and I liked him back because I felt insecure and didn’t want to appear over-eager.

I ended up marrying the first man I was in a serious relationship with even though he was not the best match.  I think had I had more dating experience earlier and more confidence with dating, I would have recognized that he wasn’t right for me and moved on.[/quote]

I have a good friend from college with the same type of story. All girls high school, ended up marrying the first guy she had a relationship with and slept with, impulsively. He was not a good match and it completely derailed her life. I would never do it. [/quote]
