FIRST Relationships

[Gui Cavalcanti]

I'm under the notion that FIRST relationships tend to last longer than normal high schooler relationships, although that may be just me.

The leaders of 422 in 2001 (Administration and Communications) had been going out since their freshman year (they were seniors), and managed to keep track of the team fairly well even when they were fighting. As the new communications officer, I'm sort of going out with a team member and everything was flowing rather smoothly throughout build season, with only one or two rocky spots on Thursday of regionals. We've now been going strong for 5 months... woo

Has your team experienced any of this? Do you think it's generally a good or a bad thing for FIRSTers to be dating on the same team? What about different teams?

Have there been any cross-country FIRST relationships?
