when I was 10 I "fell" in "love" with a boy I met on Neopets simply because he was the first boy I encountered who used emoticons like :3, xD, ^^ as well as proper grammar & spelling. I thought only girls did that & figured I caught myself a rare specimen I needed to hold on to

12 y/o: I used to think a (menstrual) period was called a period not because it's regular/periodic/cyclical, but because you got a tiny dot, a "period", of blood during it. hoooo boy I was in for a HELL of a surprise.
