I think all of us have that person in our life. You know:

• The one who had your back no matter what.
• The one you were so in tune with that words were optional.
• The one you gave your shoulder to when the world came crashing down
• The one you wanted to be with forever.
• The one who would never go out with you. “We’re just friends.”

Well… whatever… I don’t care if you didn’t.. I DID. And it was great. We had a ton of fun together through out my highschool years. She was one of my best friends. We shared things together that we never even shared with our spouses later in life. But for some reason (fear) we were never able to take it to the next level. We both moved on to other people and each got married to the wrong people. Between the jealousy of our spouses, and the pain of seeing each other with other people, it was just too much. Then we lost touch. Seven years ago.

Imagine my suprise when I get a cryptic email a couple months ago, from her sister, letting me know that my long lost love was waiting to talk to me and that I should call her. Imagine my shock when she confessed that she had truely loved me all these years, and thought her chance had passed to tell me how she truely felt. Imagine my euphoria when we decided to give things a shot and start dating.

Now here we are, going nuts for each other like we should have done so long ago. Loving every minute of it.

Just wanted to let you all know that sometimes thing can work out.
