Ask any kids whom they want to marry, they will probably have an answer for you. They may even decide they don't want to marry or have relationship at a young age like my friend's six year old son. He said, "Airil tak nak kawin. Nanti selalu kena marah macam mama marah uncle abah". He's not getting married and gets scolded like her mom scolding his soon-to-be step-father.
My friend has been divorced for several years and is now in a relationship with someone who adores her and her son. They are engaged and planning to get married soon. After going through hell with her first marriage, she has lots of doubts with relationship so sometimes they'll break into arguments. Sometimes it's not really an argument but she's playing the many questions of WHY with him. I really laughed when she told me what his son told her. And I also prayed her next marriage will be better.
My friends daughter and son looking so cute together. Both their parents are divorced.
I think my first ever relationship is when I was in Standard One. It's not a relationship really, but my friends teased us because we have similar sounding name, sit near to each other in class and walks to the canteen together.
For Malays, you can call it being creative or not so creative depending on your perspective, we can come up with many names by changing the vowels or alphabet(s) or add an extension. Here is some example.
Changing vowels/alphabets: Zuraida, Zuraidi, Zuriana, Zuriani, Zuraifa, Zuraimi
Adding extension: Zuraidan, Zuraifarina, Zurianiza, Zuraifizal
Well... you get the idea. Parents planning to name their children with the above pattern, needs to plan ahead so they will not run out of ideas and have one or two children with different sounding names from their siblings lest they will think they're adopted :)
Anyway, back to my story, the boy's name rhymes with mine. My siblings have the similar name pattern and I have younger brothers so it's natural for me to hang out with the boys or a boy for that matter. To have a boy in class with a name similar with my siblings makes him seem like family. I did not feel odd walking around with him and sit next to him in the canteen but soon my classmates started to tease. I don't like being teased and certainly do not want to marry him so I pick a fight with him and ended the relationship hehe...
I can't even recall how he looks like. In Standard Two we changed class and then I moved to a different school. I did not keep in touch with any of my primary school friends anymore. He's probably married with 5 kids and a bulging belly :D So there goes my first relationship. Do you remember yours?

I've been in un-countable relationships since I started to know the differences between me and the other sex, he he he.
Anyways, my childhood sweetheart is currently my ever-loving wife. Yeah, we actually ended-up together even tough we met and seen few other peoples before finally tying-up together.
You should seek your first one and find out what they are doing, just for the sake of old-time.
