Teenage Love 7: Retired Couples

It looks like all of the elderly couples have been in love with each other since they were real-life teenagers, even before the ones who were born in the 1980s existed, even me. This type of teenage love has been around all of the elderly men and women who were young since the 1950s, the 1960s and the 1970s. It seems to everyone that no matter how old these two lovebirds get, they still have plenty of love for each other. Back in the day, before the cell phone was invented, MTV made its cable debut, and before the Internet, there was a lot of things all teenage love birds have done back in the 1950s to the 1970s: they went to a drive-in movie to see one of their favorite films, they had gone to the diner to eat hamburgers and fries, there were school dances, that kinda stuff. And before the high definition television sets were introduced, all teen guys took their teen girlfriends to see the full moon back in the 1950s and the 1960s, including 1955 and 1964. That's a date they'll never forget. Teenagers back in the 1950s, the 1960s, and the 1970s have had a great time, especially when they fell in love back in either middle school or high school. This is the kind of stuff they should talk to their grandchildren about it, especially how they met and how they really did fall in love. It also seems that it has been years and years since all relationships have began to build between the then-two young lovebirds (a teen boy-turned elderly man and a teen girl-turned elderly woman). How interesting was that? Well, it looks like another generation of young love will take over the lives of all young lovebirds of today and take over where their grandparents, who were teenagers back in the time, have left off. And if this kind of young love keeps increasing before the year 2025, there's no telling what great thing might happen next.
