What Happened Next?

Me and my boyfriend have been together for almost two years. How we met is a long, difficult story. Long story short, we screwed each other first time we ever met (at the park, two o'clock in the morning). I thought it was a one-night stand, but one day he called back like a week after I saw him last. We met each other at the park again that night. For 6 months our relationship was all about lust. I would get a call from him, saying to meet him at the park later tonight. We would meet up. Do our thing. Then leave with an "I love you" and a "goodbye." People who knew him and knew we were going out told me all about his past. Stuff like how he does drugs, screws around with all these girls, and has a bad temper. I don't really believe anybody cause I loved this boy soooo much. So it was fair weekend and I went to the fair with my friend. (Now here's where the story becomes good.) It was me, my friend, her boyfriend, and his cousin. We were all drinking and I was kinda buzzed. Long story short, I slept with the cousin. The next day we went to the fair again, guess who I see? Yup, my boyfriend. (Before you say I cheated, lemme clarify that I didn't know we were still together.) I go up to him and hug him and say hi. I had hickies on my neck and he seen them. He was sooo pissed with me that he said it was over. I get a call a week later from him. He told me to meet him at the park, so we were back together doing what we usually did. A couple months passed and he told everyone it was over, without me knowing it was over. To sum this all up for you guys, he cheated, I cheated, we broke up, we made up, we found out what true love is and that we had it with each other. If I had enough space to write out the WHOLE story, I would. He's changed a whole lot since we first met. I can honestly say that I know what it feels like to be deep in love, heartbroken, cry a lot, to trust and to forgive. You never know how far a relationship could go and how strong the love can be.

Lessons Learned

  • trust and forgive
  • take your chances
  • don't be afraid to snot cry all over the place
  • heart break really sucks but it makes you stronger
  • just love, no matter what ever happens between you and your hunnie, just love each other
  • fights and arguments make the stronger. (not saying to fight and argue all the time though.)
  • learn that the one you love can be lost
  • and finally my favorite quote "let him go, if he comes back he's yours forever, but if he don't then he lost something wonderful."
