Did you know I dated Elizabeth Warren back in high school?
Wow! I'm impressed!
She is a great person and a great friend.
Doesn't surprise me. She seems sincere and, unlike too many politicians, not only has a moral compass -- but actually uses it. It's good to date someone that you respect and maybe even love. I'm glad that you had a good time together..
The sparks didn't fly romantically, but we're still good friends.
It's good to have friends of various genders. You don't have to necessarily be romantically involved with them.
