Boyfriend!

Here's a non-Sasha related post. Cassie has her first boyfriend.
Awwww! How cute!

She is 13 years old, and had a crush on Tyler, one of the boys in her math class, for the past few months. She was too scared to talk to him. She had a friend of hers, who was a friend of his, play mediator between them. Her friend talked to him and told him that Cassie liked him. Her friend says that he said he liked her too and would ask her out. Then her friend said that he said he tried but that Cassie shot him down. Cassie said she didn't realize he was trying to make an attempt at anything, just thought it was a casual conversation. Doh! She told her friend and her friend corrected the miscommunication. Tyler then asked her if she wanted to 'go out' and she said yes. So apparently that officially makes them a couple.

Now they're not 'going out', as in, going someplace together. I guess 'going out' is just a status, not an intention of traveling together. Hah!

For now, Cassie and Tyler are too scared to talk to each other. It appears that 'going out' does not involve them interacting much. But the new couple is the talk of the school, and Cassie says everyone is happy for them. She even changed her myspace page relationship status to say "in a relationship".

Middle school love. How sweet and innocent :)
