Love Story #4456
I always knew....
by Angela
To this day, it still amazes me. He and I had met about 14 or 15 years ago when I had first moved to town. My family had moved because of a job offer my dad had accepted. I was just beginning the 5th grade and he and I were in the same class. I had gone to school there for two years before moving once again, but within the those two years he had been my first and only crush, without ever knowing. We never really talked or hung out with one another, he had his friends and I had mine. On occasion, of course we'd run into eachother and say our hello's, but never really communicated with one another on the "I like you...alot" level. I say that only because we we're very young, not knowing what love was, being immature and childish as most 11 and 12 year olds are. It was only but two years later that our family had to move once again due to some financial difficulties. We moved only 15 miles north of where we were. I finshed Jr. High and High School without ever really having a boyfriend, or a relationship, I was a very shy, 'to myself' person. There had been instances in my early teens, that I had started experimenting with the drugs, the alcohol, the sex..and it led to a relationship with a man who was 7 years older than I. That relationship led to a child, a marraige and a divorce. Soon after that I involved myself with another who was all wrong for me. That relationship also led to a child, which then led to the end of our relationship. Now within all those years he had never really left my mind. He was imbedded within my subconscious, there were breifings about him and who he was with and such but because of his involvement with someone the thoughts weren't paid much attention to. I knew he had been with someone who I knew from when I went to school with him who was also a distant/mutual friend of my best friend and I. There was a time about 2 years ago that I ran into my first crush while out with some friends... I never forget a face, and even thought it had been well over 10 years since we had been in school together, he was still the same. I walked up to him and we said hello, continued to ask one another if we remembered who the other was, as if there were a doubt, and had very short conversation. From that day forward we had seemed to run into one another a little more often and our connection that we'd felt way back when started to resurface, but this time so much stronger. And even though he was with someone else, there was nothing that could have stopped the irresistable desire we had for one another. It wasn't but a year following our first run-in, that we'd run into eachother again, but this time took our meeting further than the last few... we figured it'd be the giving in to the temptation of our attraction for one another and it'd be satisfied, a long awaited for moment for both of us. Things hadn't exactly worked out for either of us that night and we swore we'd finish what we started someday, well, that someday came nearly 4 months later, when we took every chance we could to be together. Still despite the fact he was with someoe else and had been for nearly 5 and half years. Our connection grew stronger and stronger and feelings had developed quickly than either one of us had expected them to. He was distancing himself from his current girlfriend to spend every spare moment he had with me. We started planning weekends away..and before you knew it he had decided that he wanted to be with me and not her, so almost 4 months later he took the time to explain to her how he felt, but not all in truth. He hadn't told her about me. But since the break up with his ex-girlfriend, he and I have been in extreme heaven. Every moment we spend together is in complete bliss, the smiles, the kisses, the looks, the touches, we've fallen so in love with one another it makes others around us feel it....to the point it sickens them. There isn't any person or any thing in this world that could ruin what we feel and how we feel it. He's made many changes in his life to be with me and to love me, even accepting my children. His ex has now found out that in the end there was 'someone else' and has accepted it. She's not happy with it, but she beleives in destiny and fate as much as the next person, so she's happy for him that he's happy with me. We've now bought land and are beginning to build our very first house...to live in together, forever, and with all the love in the world for one another.
