Love Story

I have some thoughts and I will write them out.

I have committed a mistake that all men will make, thinking back and reflecting back, I regretted it much.

Here, I will relate a story of a guy who did something similar:

Mr B. is my friend. Just last month he tell me that he fell in love. I am delighted for him, as it has been 5 lonely years since he has been involved in a relationship. He always tells me that fate works in a very strange manner, if it comes it comes, if it never comes it never comes, no matter how hard one tried and tried to make it happen; it wont work! Because fate doesn't work this way.

But if it comes, it will be the best, he told me and I remember it very very clearly.

He knew this girl last year and they have been contacting one another ever since. Everytime, when they arranged to meet, somethings will corp up. But he is not disappointed nor is he sad but he perserved and consistently doing what he is doing, hoping one day, there will be one day when they finally meet.

During this 1.5years many things happened to her, how my friend know? This girl writes her soul out in her private or not-so-private space. He diligently keeps himself updated of whats happening around her, hence he know quite a fair bit of her recent happenings.

Note that he is not a stalker.

From her bad and sad, to her happy and jubilant. He read and he feels and he empathized. He feels like protecting her, and he hopes fate will finally knock on his door.

But things cannot be rush.

Fate finally .. came, in the most amazing manner.

Some day last month, in Nov, my friend asked her out for dinner, but she suggested going to the museum! It came as a shocker .. Museum?? he thought. But in the end, it was still a dinner, the museum plan didn't materialized.

The dinner was simple, but very nice and cosy. He told me that they talked a lot, the topics covered everything under the sun and the moon. And the stage was set for further outings. During this period, they kept in constant contact, with my friend concerning for her well-being as he knows that she has her fair bit of private and personal issues.

The chance has finally arrived. The manly instinct of wanting to protect his girl has come, just like a knight who would, despite all odds and danger, putting himself on the line to protect his princess against the evil fire-spitting dragon.

He finally got his chance ..

The knight got her princess .. and dream come true.

He continued what he do best. Protecting and ensuring the princess is well and safe from harm. Hand in hand, they walked the garden, smelled the roses, sharing little secrets and laughing at one another.

Her happiness is his world and he wants to walk into her world as well ..

However, fate comes but fate doesn't guarantee anything ..

Too much care and concern can be too much, and too much of something is no good, like what they said, too many cook spoiled the soup.

8 days ago .. on a fateful Tuesday, it ended, due to some reason.

My friend .. devastated.

He know that he have committed a mistake that all men will committed, he didn't mean it but he did it.

My friend was sorry .. he told me. I listened to him.

I tell him this:

" I remember you told me, when the one comes, she will be the best, you tell me you will treasure her, care about her and guard her forever it lasted. Well, my friend, you did. But, you committed a foolish mistake. I know now you're very angry with yourself as well as being very disappointed. But if you do have a chance to find back what you've lost; remember to treasure, treasured and treasure it dearly."

Appreciate, treasure and show gratitude.

He smiled at me as i looked into his eyes.

Well, sometimes, people do make mistake, but sometimes, a small mistake can and will cost you everything.

I tell him. You love her. You have already fall for her. Now, go get her back! There is no relationship that existed without any conflicts, without any argument and without differences. It is only through these then a relationship will strengthen and thus, withstand any further conflicts.

The love journey is all about care and share, building trust, enduring conflicts and resolving differences then will it last.

Only with all these, will there ever be a happily after ending. A relationship will falter if there is no conflicts, no differences and no arguments.

Love is strange, real strange. Yet it is beautiful, very beautiful. It can bring you to heaven and then suddenly banished you to hell.

All enduring relationship has its problems, and only by solving the problem between the 2 person then can it withstand the test of time.

Else, this love is just but a illusion.

Oh well, Mr B. now you've lost it, then you regretted it. So now you know why they say maintained a relationship is difficult? I know you know it. But all is not lost.

If Mr B. you do get another chance .. I hope you will work towards the fairy tale ending of happily ever after.

The world is always full of hope and surprises as well.

I wish you luck Mr B. and my blessings to you! You are ready, and you jolly-well don't take anything for granted.

Goodnight.
