Where I met my partner?
I met my girlfriend online - I replied a message posted by her and we started mailing...
How we fell in love
Before we met in person, a month-long e-mail conversation predated. It was awesome to actually read your own thoughts written by someone you've never seen. She was my missing part, the other-me, or so I thought. It took my months to realize we were so different yet identical in some ways. But it took me no more than four personal meetings to lose my head and start thinking about her day and night. We took walks in old parks, looking for lonely places. It was difficult to leave in the evening. (By then, I was 16 and out, but as my mother is a bigot homophobe, I was afraid of telling her why I wasn't home all day. She didn't allow me to go out in the evenings. It is still a taboo at home - some kind of don't ask, don't tell)
I was trembling so baadly when I told her I loved her on June 1st, 2008. It was so early, wasn't it, after some two weeks of beginning friendship. But it felt so right...and she kissed me as a response. It was my first kiss - I hadn't been in a relationship before.
We've been together for almost two years now and planning our future together. I believe that surviving my mother's dictature - let's not go into details - has prepared us for anything...
Advice
- An advice? Each love seeker is a human being and therefore an individual. Don't follow any pattern, don't grow upset, don't be too active nor passive; I think laissez-faire is best when it comes to love. Don't give up. I almost killed myself because of another woman one month before I met my love.
- I believe in predestination. If you are to meet someone, you will. Think of this - she may be in the next room, in a nearby town, over the ocean, but she's here and waiting for you, just as you are for her - the only thing to do is to realize it, both of you :o)
