My idea of dating when growing up was very different than what we're seeing now. One of my favorite movies growing up was Gidget (the one with Sandra Dee, of course). I was taken with the adorable swimsuits, the sunny, Southern California beach setting, and most of all, the romance. I reveled in watching Gidget fall for the cute surfer guy, and cheered when they finally agreed to “go steady,” and he “pinned” her, which is when a guy gives his girl a pin as a symbol of his commitment to her. How cute is that?
