"Our Compassionate and Understanding Leads Long Term Relationship To Ultimate Marriage"

in #love7 years ago (edited)

I’m excited to share my love story because I want to inspire all of you who are seeking love or have yet to find love. Regardless of whether you are single or attached, I hope my/our story will give you hope about love. I never knew that such a perfect person could exist, much less wind up to be my life partner. I would not mention his name rather i will indicate only.

I didn’t expect to find my true love when I was 16 and I definitely didn’t expect my neighbor to be my true love. I was in my schooling days when i personally know him. As far as i remember, he was tall and handsome in my first sight. His blue eyes were striking. I remember we both used to stare each other whenever we pass by. I don't know what attracts me about him, I used to find a nice looking guy. When he arrived, he simply moved into my life without even a hint of upset. He was there to walk me home when I left my friend’s house and he was there when I needed to talk to someone. In the mornings, he would walk me to school and as he wandered away, I felt upset that I wouldn’t see him for the whole day.

This is us like 7 years back

I was excited as well. However i came to know he had taken so much effort to get my cell number from my brother. We had a long chat that night and it continued for a couple of days. Then that weekend he took me out on a date, and even before that I could sense that I was in love with him. Given the fact that I knew very little about him in the beginning, I was very scared of how he would turn out to be. As days passed, our bonding becomes more stronger and we used to have texts every single second(trust me on this) and phone call unnecessarily :)

We go through so many obstacles in our journey. Because of our over possessiveness we used to have misunderstandings and complications. But the thing is we never treat our relationship easily. We both hold it tight and never let it go no matter what. We went through rough patches like every couple does, but it felt so different. Anything we went through we ended up laughing off and loving each other even more.

He just happened to come in my life. Nothing planned!! And I have to admit he is the best thing that has ever happened in my life. He really made me believe that love at first sight does exist. We have cherish so many beautiful memories along with sad part too.

I think the best is that, while I don't believe any relationship is perfect, I have never once doubted our commitment and love for each other. Since the day we met, I just knew that I wanted him. I think that you can have great relationships with people on emotional, physical, and mental levels, but with him there's an even balance between the three. Most of all, we just make each other happy and push each other to be better. My (well, now our) friends still joke about how they were so weird out by our initial craze for each other.

I found that it was easy and for the first time in a very confusing childhood, I didn’t have to pretend or act happy when I wasn’t. I didn’t have to hold back on my opinions or pretend to be something I wasn’t. I was me, in all my opinionated, strange and dark way. I could laugh without being scared to do so and more importantly, I could cry and actually explain the reason why I did.

A lot of people may say that age is a state of mind, that a person is only as old as they feel. That is an upbeat and optimistic approach to aging; however the question is if that applies when it comes to relationships. It has quite often been acceptable for a male to be the older person in a relationship. Some issues can arise if the opposite happens; a younger man and an older woman. In addition, there can be some issues as well, if the male is many years older than the female. It is possible to have a secure and loving relationship in which there is an age difference, if both people involved understand certain issues that may arise and they can work together to resolve them.

And finally we were successful in our relationship which long last for 7 years. I was 21 and he was 24 when we finally got married a year ago. I married my first real boyfriend and first love. We are fortunate to have experienced both young love and "adult" love, which has only grown stronger as time and experience have matured us. Other people still joke about how we spend so much of our time together. I guess that causes problems in a lot of marriages, but it's the opposite for us. We're best friends, share a lot of the same hobbies, and enjoy each other's company. Most of our time together is spent chilling' together enjoying ourselves, just with some intimacy involved. It's lovely. He's my favorite person, and inspires me to be better. I wish everyone in the world could experience the same, I really do. I think there would be world peace.

Because of our continued support for one another in everything we do, we are happily married. The bond we have created in all those years together has set a foundation for our marriage. If I had to give one piece of advice on how to make a young relationship work, it would be to love the person you are with for who they are and not let the opinions of everyone around you interfere with your relationship. The biggest hurdle we had to get through was the people around us making their negative comments, trying to force their opinions on us, and giving false information. What matters most is your own happiness with the person you are in a healthy relationship with. The more you let other people dictate how your relationship should be, the more the relationship becomes less about the two of you.

Many people don't understand how we were able to get married after being together for so long I chalk it up to the fact that when it's meant to be, it's meant to be. You find a way to never lose something as special as our love. Sure, there are plenty of obstacles ahead of us, like starting a family, buying a home, and other things we may not foresee. But we will get through them with our understanding and LOVE.

Thank you for your time!
