Where I met my partner?
I met my partner at her brother's 30th Birthday party. I was not supposed to be going there, but my sister went with her newly found "boyfriend" and was getting lonely as she didn't know anyone else, she phoned me and I made my way there from the party I was at.
How we fell in love
At that stage of my life I was totally over love. I had my heart broken for the umpteenth time and didn't really care much anymore. I had fun, partied hard, kissed as many people as I could without asking names and then swiftly moving along before they got too comfortable. I went to this party simply to have fun with my sister. This beautiful girl was there with her boyfriend. Blunt and loud as I am, I went over and introduced myself, and so found out that this guy was her brother. I never even knew he had a sister but I knew him for quite some time.
I spent that night drinking and dancing and chatting away. This little lady kept feeding me alcohol and smokes every time I walked past her. It so happened that she asked me to walk with her to the house, and around the first corner I kissed her. Later that night she left her boyfriend telling him they're wasting each others' time and he left the party. He left with the tent and so she had no place to sleep that night and as I just arrived out of nowhere I had no place to sleep. We spent that night outside under a blanket by the fire, no more alcohol, no more smokes, everyone has retired to bed, just the two of us.
We stayed awake happily chatting away the whole night. The next morning we didn't say much to each other, and soon after everyone woke up she left. No number, no nothing. I stayed there with my sister and our friends for a little while longer. Once I made my way to leave to my car I had a message from this beautiful angel. Three days later she invited me to her hockey game, she drove all the way to come and fetch me and take me home again. Two days later I asked her out. We had ups and downs. It didn't work out in the beginning, her dad kicked her out and she came to live with me, my parents kicked us out and we had to go stay by friends until we found our own place. People tried to break us up and nearly succeeded but we found our way back to each other. Although we broke each others' hearts we worked through it all. And today one Year and 15 days later we are engaged, living in our own place, as happy as they come, end up laughing after almost every disagreement and fight and made it work, we cut all the "bad apples" out of our life and today we will carry each other until eternity.
Advice
- Stop looking. Let love find you. But don't be a hobbit now. Go out meet people, but generally if you meet new people and you seem too interested they catch a fright and the first ticket out of there. PS. even some straight girls turn gay with the right girl.. Just look at us :-)
