Can a boy forget his first love?
Is it hard to let go of your first love? You never forget your first love because it has a special resonance in your actual physical cells and DNA. First love is intense and vulnerable, heady and scary – and that’s why it’s so difficult to let go of a past relationship.

Is second love better than first?
