All of them, with no doubt at all. One even had the wedding
directly after the graduation - we saw her off. It was her graduation and wedding day wrapped into one.
She`d had a crush on the teacher from first year, but it wasn`t until the end of second year that he started treating her as "special"... Their relationship was given the parental blessing based on the promise to get married after graduation. They followed through on it.
13 years later they`re still married, and have 3 children. He eventually changed jobs - now working in the textbook industry.

I also wonder how much it could have been happening around you without knowing about it, as I'd mentioned some of these women didn't even tell their closest friends at the time it was happening.

I guess that is possible, but with how incredibly fascinated everyone was with the whole idea and how "cool" it seemed to have "lost it" with someone older and more experienced... I kind of doubt it. I used to think that "guy talk" was, well, limited to guys... In a coed school the girls wouldn`t be caught dead talking about that sort of thing when guys might overhear. But in an all-girls school it was a different world, really.
