Man, I remember in 1st grade I had this huge crush on a girl who was in 2nd or 3rd grade (can't exactly remember, just remember she was older) named Jessica. She was NOT interested in me at all, but it didn't stop me. On easter I got her this butterfly necklace.
A week or so later she really needed something from me, to do something she hated to do, can't remember what it was, and I told her that I'd do it on the condition she be my girlfriend. Worked like a charm, for two weeks anyway
Then, when I was in second grade this girl Rhonda came up and punched me in the arm on the playground and kissed me on the cheek saying "You're my boyfriend now!". Though even then I knew she was cute I flat out refused her as a girlfriend because I wasn't going to let anyone force me to do anything let alone a girl!
Then in highscoohl (we parted ways in elementary and middle school) I found out she became a smoking hottie. I mean bonafide Victoria's Secret model material. She also became the populars guys (read jocks) slvt to pass around. Should have been the first to hit it back in 2nd grade.
Props to your son for "getting back on the horse" so to speak.

The first girl I liked was in 1st grade and her name was Sandy. She was really smart and I was a dumbass so she had no interest in me whatsoever. Then we grew up and she became and dumbass and I, well I'm still a bit of a dumbass sometimes but hey at least I'm an engineer!

I think you gave your boy some great fatherly advice. You coached him along while derailing the whole "jewelery madness" thoughts. He must've picked that up from the girls at school!
I'm sure you were choking back the smiles and laughter...and maybe a few tears of joy too.
It's great to see your son growing up to be a healthy, red-blooded American Male, isn't it? :thumbsup:

A couple of clarifications:
1) At no point did I or he say he was "in love" with the girl. He just thinks she's cute and likes her and wants to be her boyfriend. This is probably part instintual and partly environment (seeing mom and dad together, watching tv, asking questions, etc). So let's not make it more than it is.
2) The getting the phone number was a suggestion among others. Look at my response. Noone is complaining about talking to her more. Getting her digits is just one way to accomplish it.

Geez, I had a playful girlfriend that was really more of a teasing thing in 2nd grade. I didn't really get into girls in a "getting a hardon thinking about you" way until maybe 5th grade when I had my first serious crush. Maybe I reveled in my childhood innocence where girls had cooties and I chased them around to tease them for longer then most.
Haha, my 9 year old has a 'girlfriend' too. Caught him with a book of Yeats' poems hidden in his dresser (he was reading all the love poems) so I bought him a book of Pablo Neruda love poems. Hehe. I am sure he's whacking off on a regular basis...nobody needs to take 45 minute showers, nothing takes that long to get clean. Now he has to set a timer for 10 minutes so we don't run out of water.
My kindergartner's friends ratted her out this afternoon. She apparently 'broke up' with Jhovany or Leonardo (or whoever her boyfriend of the week was) and is now planning to marry Frank. Hehehehe. I asked her if she smooched him and she said "no, but he gave me a hug." I told her "ok, but no smooching."

It was the same idiot that posted a thread on here wanting advice on what to do because he ran over a little old lady with his car and didn't have car insurance: luvya.

LOL. Getting a number from a girl at the age of 9 seems very odd to me? What the hell would they talk about?

I'd say he has a good chance, but probably not overnight. At that age girls will go from friend only to girlfriend in ~ 3 weeks (with no explanation ever given). The problem is the reverse is true as well. It depends mostly on how many of her friends encourage it. And that takes time.
