My dad taught me how to play chess when I was probably 8 or 9. He wasn't very good, but he seemed like a chess master to me at the time. :) I started beating him when I was 12 or 13. I've never seriously studied chess, other than reading a small handful of books. I play for fun.

Same for me. Ive read lots of chess books years ago but forgot about 95% since I stopped playing for 10 years 
.
And now I've not time enough to read them again because of work 
When i was in the 7th grade at the jr.high school one of the Teachers Mr. Pollard started an after school chess club.At the time we all wanted to be the next Bobby Fischer he was the World champ at the time and chess fever took off thru our school and i was caught up in it!THIS WAS ABOUT 1973!!!!!!
Oldest friend taught me 9 old. Had sometimes episodic games. Playing regularry from late year. Every moment feel something interesting about for me about the Game, being unable to say...
May we know who taught you how to play chess. Thank you for your respond.
I learned how to play chess by watching my friends playing chess when I was still young in the late 1950s, but I stoped playing the game because I was appearing in the movies and was dancing the ballroom dancing. I just started playing chess again in the 1990s but not concentrating it because I'm just playing the game for fun, to make more new friends, to refresh/exercise my brain. I don't even read chess books and moves.
