For Better or For Worse by Lynn Johnston for February 12, 2023

Awww!

Just in time for Valentine’s Day

ADORABLE!!!

The best one!

Maybe Mom thinks it is because of the first date, but I would bet Liz is more dazzled by the first kiss on Friday.

Great depiction of young love. May it never end.

Lord, I’m getting cavities! Too cute, too cute…

Isn’t love beautiful the first time around!!

Yup. That is how first dates are, and you want the feeling to last forever.

I wonder why this toon was not available on 2 13 94

tap the calendar and see it missing

and it went really well. :)

Love this.

Perfect first date!

Beautiful.

I remember chasing/ being chased by a classmate in the town library only to be “caught” and given first kiss in the middle of the stacks. Such fun playful times.

Lynn’s magic once again.

Uh oh!!!

I remember my first date. We double-dated to a football game with my older brother and his future wife. My folks wouldn’t let me go unless we double-dated. I’m sure Rick & Kathy hated it just as much (or more) as my date or I did.

That looks like a glorious first date, one for the memory books!

When you are young and have little money, just sharing each other company is all that is needed to make for a perfect date.

It’s funny but even Farley looks a little concerned about Elizabeth.

FINALLY!!! SHEESH!!! Sweethearts DESERVED this! <3

First date, first love. But it’s also going to be the first heartbreak. It never fails.

Awwe <3

Remember when they showed two movies?

awww… Poor Dad will be at a loss and unable to cope with Liz for a long time now ;-)

This is sweet. I remember being in kove at Liz’s age. It’s a little different when you’re a boy but I can still understand how she feels.

Well, they already had a “first kiss” so this montage was very chaste… ;-)

Liz finally knows someone loves her.

That’s weird, usually Sunday and daily strips didn’t match up so neatly back then.

Sweet!!

What an expression!!She’s in a different world.

I love this so much!!!❤️❤️❤️

SO happy the arc went into Sunday!!

Just as well Lynn spared us a big “Oh my goodness our little girl is growing up” scene from the parents.
