Chapter 8

• Within a few months, Laura had her first boyfriend, although seemed reluctant to give him too much of the time, she had allotted for me. Within two months Laura had broken up with him, the guy expected Laura to act like a girl. Boy did he get a surprise when she didn't?
• Over the next 18 months, Laura had several boyfriends and seemed keen on my advice about how to handle things with guys. She slowly got to the point that guys preferred a girl in a skirt than in a pair of jogging bottoms.
• The day before her 16th birthday, I sat in Laura's room watching her return from the toilet, before digging in her wardrobe for something to wear on her big date.
