When I met my boyfriend at 22, I was all about my career, I was thinking I’d never fall in love as I didn’t have time nor luxury to waste my time on it.

I had to support my family and study hard.

Yet, when I met him he did everything to get my attention, wouldn’t let me wake up or go to sleep without wishing me a great sleep and sweet dreams, I went to places and he was there, I couldn’t get rid of him and didn’t want to, tbh.

As he was the only person who cared for my well being in a remote country, far from my friends and family.

He was the only person I knew would look for me and find me if anything happened to me. And I felt good for having him worry about me.

At first I flirted and dated with others, didn’t care much about him, but he was so motivated and tried so hard to get me, I never got interested in anyone else more than him. I always had a soft spot for him and he did so much for me, it didn’t make it easy to forget him. But I was a racist shallow person at that time.

Yet, I was still a bit unsure at that time I would never imagine I’d have an Asian boyfriend, even though he was like the sexiest Asian I’ve met and I admitted he was very hot.

One day when I told my mom, that I wasn’t sure whether I’d fall for him or not, because he was Asian and I always liked blond blue eyed guys, my mom cried, saying she didn’t expect me to be a heartless like this and that he is a human being worthy to be loved and that doesn’t matter if he has blue or black eyes, I should never just turn him down because of his race. At that time I found out I was such a shallow racist person and decided to let everyone know I was interested in him and proud of it!

When I caught a flu he used to cook soup for me and bring it in front of my doorstep and leave, as he knew I’d feel uncomfortable having him visit too early in our relationship (I was a virgin and took things slow).

I appreciated it so much, I hate soups, but the thing that he cooked them for me cause he knew I had a flu or something, made my heart warm.

When I got lost in the city, as Shanghai and its surroundings are huge and I was new in the city, I knew he’d find a way and find me. I felt safe knowing he was there somewhere.

At that time I didn’t realize I loved him.

He used to bring everything he had to me… Like he gave me his all. He would skip his meal to send me coffee at work, he was young and didn’t have a good salary, I had 10 times higher salary than him. Yet I felt like he was the richest guy in the world because he filled my days with surprises and exciting dates all the time. When I realized he was actually not rich at all, I appreciated him much much more, realizing he did everything for me and even spent his last pennies on me. So many things, I can’t even write all of them here.

One day I kissed him on a cheek and he shouted on the street that he was the happiest man in the world, he did so many things for me and yet, little things and tiny attention from me made him happy.

That Summer I was leaving for another country to renew my visa and I didn’t know if I would go back or not, before I left he gave me a gift, he said my phone wasn’t good enough to take photos and even if I never returned he hoped I could take good pictures and every time I looked at it to check time, I’d remember him. So he bought me the newest iPhone. Which I gave him back, I couldn’t accept it as I didn’t know if I would come back or not and I didn’t want him to waste his money. But the fact that he was willing to give it to me knowing I might have never seen him, made me cry. He insisted I took it though, saying my phone was not good enough and if something happened to me in that country and he couldn’t get in touch with me he would be very nervous.

When I was leaving his country for the first time unsure If I’d go back again, I didn’t worry about losing my job, I didn’t worry about losing my house, all I was thinking is what if I’d never see him again, what would my life be without him. I cried. I was the only person flying to Bali with tears in her eyes. At that time I realized I loved him.

When I came back he took me to a place where his parents got married and then we moved in together, I knew I couldn’t spend any more days without him.

Even at home he did everything for me, took care of me like I was a child, read fairytales to me before sleeping and would sing for me to help me sleep better. He cooked for me, when he saw I was tired cleaned for me. Wanted to spend every minute with me and even for my bad habits he said he loved everything about me, I felt so accepted and so happy for the first time I started wanting to change and be better for him, start cooking to make him happy or just change my bad habits to be a better girlfriend, motivate him and love him as he deserved.

He made my life a never ending celebration, never ending holiday. I loved every inch of him, moat importantly he taught me how to love, with his unconditional love, he taught me how to love him better.

I never could though. He did so many things for me and I could never be a girlfriend as good as he deserved, if only I could travel back in time, I’d cherish every minute spent with him, I’d do everything to make him happier and happier everyday. If only I knew I just had limited time with him and would suddenly be forced to stay apart from him for more than 2 years.

I made many mistakes but I loved him, more than I’ve loved anyone in the world. And he’s the beat thing that ever happened to me. He proposed me 1 year ago on Valentine’s day but we never managed meeting each other…

I don’t believe in God, but I’ve prayed I can go back and be a girlfriend that he deserves to have, distance and time made me miss and love him more, appreciate him more as well. I love him so much and I hate everything standing between us.

I talked a lot, I can talk hours about him and not get tired.

Did I mention he slept by my side for over a month without touching me because I wasn’t ready?

Who would do that lol, that man is my angel, even though he liked to call me his angel.

[LaFemmeFatale_1]

I want to say so many other things he has done for me to show his love and care and yet, there won’t be enough time nor space to describe.

I looked into her eyes and the whole world just melted away. I couldn't see any of the flaws in her that I saw when I was just trying to lay her. I only saw something beautiful that I wanted to have in my life every day.

I knew that no matter what happened to me in life, if I could feel the way I felt when I was with her, I could be happy. It was a feeling that made me care about another person the way I cared about myself. Probably a little more.

It would be nice to find someone like that again who feels the same way.

I have been in love msybe 3 times. They were all different. The last time felt like I finally found the person I would spend the rest of my life with. 26 years later we are still together.

[Asker]

so sweet!! 💕

😀😀😀

Thanks for the MHO😎

You will understand it when it happens. It comes with a great sense of caring for the person, like when she says "sorry", it tears you apart. It's complete vulnerability to one person (which you need to control). "Love can mend you life or love can break your heart"

[AsunderingNova]

not sure that I am
but I like this person a lot
though I also feel really insecure about it all

[Asker]

i know the feeling..

[AsunderingNova]

Yaaaa!
do you give advice?

[Asker]

depends on what it is but yes 😭

[AsunderingNova]

alright!
well its insecurity/sex/sexuality type stuff?
shoot me a message if its k?

[glennos89]

falling in love always comes overtime. In the beginning you can really really like someone, but it takes time for that feeling of liking your partner will transfer into real love for that person

[jahaims]

It was a new feeling and I recognized that it was being in love.

Once she left I realized quite how much I loved her
