Well, I said it was crass -- at least the second paragraph.
I could be really wrong, but I have a feeling that when I was young "things" were more geared toward the romantic. My kids ran more in "groups" for dates, while in the 60's it was more one-on-one. There were things like "going steady" as well.
But, I could be wrong. Just the way it seems to me.

I agree with this. Would also like to add that I think it should go lavaleir (letters on a necklace, no shirt), and then if its really serious, give her your pledge pin/exchanging pledge pins (if she's a sorority girl) would be cool, because that's like your pledging your love to each other. I think only dreamgirls (sweethearts/little sisters/etc.) shoul recieve letter t shirts, unless the girl in question is a wife, fiance, sister, or mother to a Brother.
