Sometimes I think about how my husband and I met when we were young and fell so deeply in love, but we had to deal with life and there’s always the question of “is this just puppy love? I’ve never been in love with someone else, how do I know this is the real deal?” And so, we broke up. It was the hardest, sweetest breakup one could imagine. I remember waking up in the middle of the night crying because it just wasn’t fair. I wanted to hate him and to have a typical breakup where he cheated on me and I can burn ever picture and never speak to him again, but it would never be like that with us. We still had so much love for each other. We tried to stay friends but we all know how that is. Years passed, we were stationed on the same military base. I can’t even tell you what I felt like when I saw him after so long. It was kind of like I was going to pass out and scream all in one. Things started picking back up from there. But yeah, sometimes I think back on all the hurt and lonely nights and god, I never ever want to experience anything like that again. I’m so blessed.
