NEVER DID I EXPECT THAT GOING TO KERIOKE WOULD CHANGE MY LIFE.
SINCE I AM DEFINATELY NOT A SINGER I WAS CONTENT TO SIT AND LISTEN TO THE MUSIC AND PERHAPS HAVE A FEW DANCES THROUGHOUT THE EVENING.
THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THIS MAN WHOM I HAD SEEN OUT OF THE CORNER OF MY EYE CAME OVER AND ASKED ME TO DANCE. AT FIRST I WAS GOING TO DECLINE BUT THEN I HEARD THE WORDS "SURE WOULD LOVE TO".
AS WE DANCED AND TALKED I THOUGHT "HMM SUCH A SWEETHEART MUST HAVE SOMEONE TUCKED AWAY SOMEWHERE". THE DANCE ENDED AND I RETURNED TO MY SEAT. HE CAME OVER AND WE TALKED AND DANCED SEVERAL MORE TIMES . EACH TIME WE DANCED CLOSER AND CLOSER WITHOUT EITHER OF US EVEN KNOWING IT WAS HAPPENING.
AT THE END OF NIGHT HE ASKED ME FOR A KISS GOODNIGHT AND I THOUGHT "WHAT THE DEVIL ITS ONLY A GOOD NIGHT KISS." THEN HE LEFT AND WENT HOME AND I RETURNED TO MY TABLE TO WAIT UNTIL MY SON WAS READY TO GO HOME.
I WENT TO THE NEXT KERIOKE HOPING TO SEE HIM THERE AND SURE ENOUGH HE WAS. WE SPENT MOST OF THE EVENING TOGETHER AND MADE A DATE TO GO OUT FOR DINNER.
WE WERE BOTH NERVOUS BUT WE FELL INTO EASY CONVERSATION AND TALKED FOR HOURS. NEITHER OF US WANTED THE DATE TO END SO WE DROVE TO A COFFEE SHOP, SAT IN THE VAN, AND TALKED FOR HOURS.
ONE LATE AFTERNOON WE WERE ROAMING AROUND AND DECIDED TO STOP AT A LITTLE CAFE AND GRAB SOMETHING TO EAT. WE FOUND A LITTLE CAFE ON THE STREET AND SAT DOWN, ORDERED A DRINK AND DINNER. I WONDERED WHAT WAS ON DAVID'S MIND AS I COULD SENSE HE HAD SOMETHING TO SAY BUT WAS NERVOUS ABOUT IT SO I SIMPLY WAITED FOR HIM TO TELL ME. I DID NOT EXPECT HIM TO SAY THAT HE WAS FALLING IN LOVE WITH ME BUT MY HEART SANG AS I FELT THE SAME AS HIM.
WE HAVE BEEN TOGETHER EVER SINCE THAT FIRST DATE WHICH WAS FIVE MONTHS AGO. ITS BEEN A CRAZY RIDE. LONG DISTANCE RELATIONSHIPS DONT USUALLY WORK BUT FOR US IT HAS ONLY MADE US STRONGER AS A COUPLE. WE KNOW THAT WE CAN TRUST ONE ANOTHER AND THAT SHOULD WE NEED TO TALK NOTHING IS TABOO AND WE ARE ONLY A CALL AWAY.
I AM MOVING TO TORONTO WITHIN THE NEXT FEW WEEKS AND WE WILL BE MOVING IN TOGETHER. HIS WORK TAKES HIM AWAY A LOT BUT THAT'S FINE. HE KNOWS WITHOUT RESERVATION THAT I WILL BE WAITING FOR HIM. I WILL HAVE MY STUDIES TO KEEP MY BUSY AND WE CAN TALK AS MUCH AS WE WANT TO ON OUR CELL PHONES.
IT IS SUCH A BEAUTIFUL FEELING TO KNOW THAT THE MAN YOU LOVE IS CARING, FUN TO HANG OUT WITH, PROTECTIVE AND LOVES YOU WITHOUT RESERVATION AND HE KNOWS THAT ITS A TRULY MUTUAL FEELING.
I WISH THAT EVERYONE COULD FIND A LOVE LIKE OURS. THE ONE THAT WILL LAST A LIFETIME BECAUSE TOGETHER YOU HAVE TAKEN THE TIME TO BUILD A STRONG FOUNDATION THAT NO ONE OR NOTHING CAN DESTROY.
I LOVE YOU SWEETHEART
