It started about 1985/6. I was in 10th grade, so 15-16 years old. She was in 7th grade so 12-13 years old. She didn't seem to have any friends and was kind of a little weird. I felt sorry for her so I would talk to her, until one of my friends pointed out she was never more than 15 feet from me. The creepy stalker thing wasn't really in style for at least 10 more years so I started to try to distance myself. This wasn't very difficult because we were only at the same school for that one year. The following year I went to a different high school. Little did I know at the time that we were 'arch-rivals'. I was also unaware that we lived in a comic book world. I'm not sure whether it was Gotham or Metropolis, maybe someone can find that out for me. I honestly can not think of anything that I ever envied about her or competed with her for. She was really nothing more to me than an amusing anecdote.
