relationship revision

When one partner of a past relationship adds more to the significance of the connection than was actually there.

George, seeing Jenna 10 years after high school, succumbs to relationship revision, embarrassing both himself and his erstwhile crush.

George: Wow! Its great to see you again, Jenna! I've thought about you alot over the years....how we really had something going back in high school.

Jenna (quizzical): We went to high school together??
