*sigh...* who would have guessed that being in a relationship can take a toll into ones psyche? being in love and in a relationship is fulfilling and such an amazing experience but its no bed of roses either. i should know because i am in one for quite some time now. there came a time when i felt that i'm missing out on life because of the commitment so i just let go. he never wanted me to but i was too stubborn to let him stop me. he kept asking "why?" but i never gave him an answer for fear that my reason might sound petty. but for months that we're not a couple, we still hangout frequently. i never enjoyed the time together though because it felt meaningless and incomplete. after sometime, i finally realized why i felt that way when we're together. its because he's not mine anymore. i can no longer hold his hand when we're crossing the streets, i can no longer ask him to put his arms around me whenever i'm having a rough day and i can't kissed him good night every time he accompanies me home. after that epiphany, i went to him immediately and asked if i could come home. he just opened his arms and gave me the biggest welcome home hug. then and there i knew that i am where i am supposed to be, home in his arms.

Well said. For love to be born it need not take a hundred years it just as well can take a moment and you have had your moment just then. Now you know that where your right home is. I thought i found mine 4 years ago. But after 2 years i realized that she was not meant for me as she had another guy in her heart. I am now still single and i envy you both. I wish you have a long and pleasant love life. Cheers!

thank you for your wishes and also for adding me as a friend... i'm fairly new in this community and i find the atmosphere here quite interesting and enjoyable... don't envy us as maintaining a relationship is not just all fun and lovey-dovey... it's also hard work... for now just enjoy your single-ness and ready yourself for in the near future, you will be maintaining your own relationship... of that i'm sure of... :)
