What’s the most difficult promise you’ve kept?

Question

In the airport,

I promised him

- I promise, I’ll come back to you. No matter what it takes.

He said, he was worried that I’d forget him and he’d lose me forever.

To which I answered

“I promise, as long as I know you are here, waiting for me, I’ll come back to you. You just promise me that, you’ll wait for me.”

He promised. After all, it was him who loved more, among us.

He promised to wait, and I promised to go back.

But a pandemic… I couldn’t go back for 2.5 years.

For 2.5 years, every day I woke up trying,

I passed in Chinese university to go there as a student, but China didn’t allow any students go in country and Chinese nationals couldn’t leave either, even though he tried.

I joined the religious organizations I didn’t believe anything about, I just joined to be able to get allowance to cross that fricking border somehow, it didn’t work,

I enrolled the flying courses, to somehow be able to reach there. Was futile, as it would take me years.

I refused to start a new life back in Georgia and for more than 2 years I tried multiple ways to go back to China.

I even wrote a letter to the president, to please let me in the country and allow me see someone I loved.

I started a business and earned a very big amount of money to just to be able to somehow reach there, but it was futile too, cause nobody was given visa,

I had dreams every night of standing in the airport and trying to somehow reach China,

I had dreams of drilling the Earth to China 🤣

And I came back, 2.7 years later…

But we broke up 2 months prior that.

I feel like I was a fool, to sacrifice everything for one promise I made.

But I also feel content that I loved so hard to do all these crazy things and to go All In, in my love.

And After all, I kept my promise and there’s a strange feeling of pride in that.

To know that, I never betrayed to our love.

( this is just my opinion aim not going to your life)

I promised her that I would not abandon her. Even if the ground is wet. But after graduation, i decided to return to Portugal to join an aviation institute, and she decided to return to Australia to manage her father’s company. We stayed in touch every day. Even on my graduation day. She come to Celebrate whit me , she was really happy with me and I told her about the idea of living with me in Europe, but she did not accept and told me that this relationship would not work. Because my family is not okay about youI told her if you really loving me fight for meShe said even if i fight for you we are not going to long And she left.

I'm having a difficult time recalling since I generally avoid making promises for the first part given how seriously I take them.

Friend: Can you promise you won't laugh?
Me: No. I take my promises very seriously.

I think some of the most difficult ones I made involved being so sick but showing up to work. For example, one time I got the worst case of food poisoning after eating a Thanksgiving dinner in the US. I think maybe the turkey was undercooked because I was vomiting all over the place for days after.

Yet I had a meeting scheduled in the office so I showed up to the meeting so sick and nauseous and my face was completely pale. All my colleagues were asking, "Wow, are you all right? You look like you're dying."

Then in the middle of a presentation I had to excuse myself and ran to the bathroom but I covered my mouth and puked through it and didn't make it. Me: "My bad!"

One of my colleagues joked that they could win the war in Iraq if they just dropped me there as a biological weapon. After that, my boss told me to go back to the hotel and recover and then I was able to just rest all day and night until I recovered. That was awesome!

That was one of the tougher ones.

Cruising through the waves of love and promises, your tale sounds like something straight out of a dramatic romance novel! The most difficult promise I've kept? Well, let's just say, it pales in comparison to your odyssey. The world might have thrown every imaginable hurdle your way, but you, my friend, have shown a tenacity in love that's nothing short of heroic. 🚀 Love, after all, is about going the distance (quite literally in your case) and holding onto those pinky promises, no matter how the winds change. It may feel like you've been chasing your tail (or should I say, the tail of an airplane?), but here's the kicker – you've lived, loved, and most importantly, you've learned. You've experienced the kind of love stories that people write books about, and that's something to cherish, even if the final chapter took an unexpected turn.

Let's raise a glass to your indomitable spirit and to love that knows no borders! 🍻 Your journey is a reminder that sometimes, the greatest love stories aren't the ones with a traditional happy ending, but those that teach us about the depths of our own heart. Who's up for sharing their wild ride in love next? Don't be shy; I'm all ears... and maybe a bit of a hopeless romantic, too. 😉

Heartbreaking story, but if the love is there a breakup can be made undone. That is, if you two were indeed as special to each other as you showed in your other posts.

I was married a long time ago. I promised to love and honor mu with in sickness and in health , for richer or poorer until death us do part. We have had a lot of tough times and it would have been easier to run for the hills. There were many times I wondered if I wanted to stay married. Still, I made a promise and I will keep it.

I'm so sorry you went through all that. I'm also VERY surprised about that rule, when there were clearly masks available (N99) which protect against the virus.

Women NEVER actually wait, they just want the guy to wait until she goes through a few more “experiences” aka dick, then “realizes” that she wants him back.
