Her brother owned and operated the local movie theater. She was going to college and on summer break, I was working in a sawmill and partying on a weekend. I saw her behind the counter and pretty much fell right then. The year was 1977. We married in 1980, our daughter was born that year as well.
I know she is my one true love since we've been together ever since, through thick and thin, ups and downs and even now I still love her. *sigh*
I too pass Lush.WPQ7Jtr5ky6F6Mph too many times my heart has been broken!
Lush and Fystee...don't be crying now...it will get better. The right person will come along and sweep you off your feet and things will work out great. *nods nods*
In high school and although we aren't together we probably know more about each other than our spouses do. We still talk an she's my best friend.
Sorry to be so cynical but I don't think that there is any such thing.
There are people I love.
I have friends that I like.
I have lovers who may be people I love or they may be strangers.
But I don't believe in the "One true love" cliche.
If you want to be with just one person for the rest of your life, that's fine. It doesn't seem to work out that way very often though. I don't think we are meant to be monogamous.
My brother was in the army, he had a pass for the weekend, so his friend visit us with his best friend, I had to make them coffee, and then the best friend ask me, when are we going out, told him, it will never happen, after a year we saw each other again and start dating, married to him now for 28 years...
I met the one guy that I think I was really in love with at a party that my husband and I were throwing, he happened to live next door, we invited him to our party and while at the party we hit it off like we had known each other for years. As the years went on we all hung out together, him and I slipping away as often as we could to get to know each other better, then I decided to move back to Nebraska and get a divorce, if I would have stayed in Colorado we probably would have ended up hooking up together, cause I found out he was going through a divorce at the same time as I, I often reflect back to those days and wonder what really would have happened....
I think that I have missed out on a true love, for being with someone who loved me part of the time but not fully as I loved them. I gave her basically undeserved benefits of doubt in continuing to date her.
One day I was walking through a parking lot and the doubt about the lady I loved had already started to sink in about her sincerity in loving me back and this lady out of the blue who was walking towards the entrance of a store like I was (and her smile caught my eyes and I smiled back at her for a few moments and then had to walk away.) Had I not been with my girl friend at the time I would have said hello to her and try to talk more with her, just to see how the conversation would go.
But sometimes when we've emotionally come to condition ourselves for the various people we choose to get involved has a way of burning up precious time around us and we may not know until a period of time has passed that that notion might be going on.
I met my husband on a chat site(yes for real) I saw his picture on his profile and was like, omg I gotta have me some of that! We started to chat and the rest is history. We've been together for years, and we are more in love now than we have ever been. He is my rock, my love , my life. He is my best friend I can tell him anything, I never thought I would ever find my true love, I lost faith in it. But I did and I'm a very lucky lady.
At a shopping mall....a few years ago
My flight had been delayed and I had arrived in Bogota after midnight without my luggage. A fellow guest at the bed & breakfast where I was staying was having his girlfriend drive him to the airport the next morning. He offered to give me a ride, and his girlfriend offered to help me negotiate the airport and get my bag. Talking on the drive back from the airport, the girlfriend suggested that I should meet her friend Daisy. That evening a beautiful senorita named Daisy stopped by the B&B to visit the owner. We sat together on the sofa and started talking. Sparks flew and we were inseparable after that. She was the love of my life, but haven't seen her in years.
High school. He was a friend of a friend. However, it took MySpace for us to reconnect. It wasn't until we reconnected that I realized he was and is my one true love.
About 20 yrs ago. She was married to my husband's buddy. We became friends and we remained friends after my divorce. She divorced a few years after me. But we didn't hook up until much later. It was something I never expected or pursued. Guess it's when you least expect it, right!
My "true" loves keep leaving me! The 2 women I have been the most in love with (and lost!), I met years ago when they were both college students. I've resigned myself to the inevitability that even though I fall hardest in love with girls, I get along better with guys! Maybe because I'm not in love with them. But after having him in my life for 15 years, my best friend has become my boyfriend. He started out as my counselor in college, and decided to be my guardian angel. He's the only person with the patience to put up with me!
Eight years ago at a house party. He was on his way to college; I was busting moves in the back yard with the baseball hat on backwards.
