Just felt like broaching a topic on love and I thought, wouldn't it be interesting to hear about somebody's sweet love story, how they met their husband at all? So here you go. FYI, I don't have a lover, so I don't have a love story. Not that I'm bothered about it. :) My parents though, they met in the States and they were both foreign students at that time. I'm not sure if they had known each other before that time because they went to the same high school in their homeland. Well, destiny dictated that they went to further their studies in the States and met there and fell in love. They got married without their parents, air fares back in those days were so expensive and they don't have much money. They got back to their hometown with their toddler, who is my eldest brother. Well what's yours??

My wife is my classmates during our elementary days. We even got to be classmates from kinder but I was scheduled for afternoon session while she was morning class. at high school, we both passed the entrance exam, we became classmates only on our junior and senior years. At college, we both took the same course, BS Chemistry were we became best of friends. We only separated because she graduated first and I was left due to my thesis problem. Befre she left, she told me that she has already fallen inlove with me. From then on, I keep on staying away from her not until she messaged me that they are going to hire another personnel in their company and she asked me if I want to apply. I was already graduated that time. So I grabbed the opportunity. From then, we became friends again but there are still gap between us until I told her that I feel the same too. We became bf/gf for 5 years. On our fifth anivversary as bf/gf is our wedding day. Now we are celebrating our 4th year as husband and wife while it is our 9th year since we started our relationship.

Yup. During our college days, many of our classmates knew that we are bf/gf already because I had fetch her and bring her back at their home since I have a scooter service that time. We really denied it since that is the truth. When we became bf/gf at our work, most of our classmates teased me that we are really in a relationship during our college. Yes we are both chemists as profession here in our contry.

Why did both of you deny it at first? Or perhaps at that time you weren't actually sure that both of you are meant to be together. I suppose you've never regretted marrying her!

Childhood friend turned lover. How sweet. You two took quite sometime to find your way to each other. But it worked out in the end, because it's meant to be. Both of you are smart chemists too aren't you. Thanks a lot for sharing!

I had a bf of 3 yrs then... But we were in a shaky state in the later part where I got really bored and choked. He lost his job and it seems like I was his outlet of all the frustrations of his life. I understand I have to be the one to listen to all his problems, but it just came to a point where I find him over reacting. He also became insecure because I earn more than him with my new job. He became jealous of things he shouldn't be. We easily ignite with just small arguments. I always encouraged him to find a job even if temporary so he can have at least something to be busy about. In my new company, I met somebody during our sportsfest. He was a funny guy. He always make me laugh or smile. We were in the same team so we were always together every weekend all throughout the sportsfest months. We became close friends. Even though the sportsfest ended, we still get to go out together. It's always a light moment when I'm with him. I forget about my relationship problem. After a year of being friends (he even became close to my family), I wasn't expecting that he falls for me. I resisted because I already have a bf. He said he's willing to wait (as if he's expecting me to break up with my bf) To make the story short, I really broke up with my bf because the situation worsen. I was not happy with him anymore. 4 months after that, I accepted this new guy. My mom was against our relationship. She thought that I don't deserve to have him. It's okay for her that we be friends but not as a boyfriend. But we still continued like you and me against the world. TO make it short again, my mom finally accepted him after 2 years... We got married after 6 years... Now we have 2 little angels. That's how simple but complicated my love story is. :)

It was great that your Mum finally accepted him, I guessed she figured how much you love him and a relationship without a parent's blessing will bring more harm than good. You have beautiful little angels there, I can see from your userpic. Thanks a lot for sharing!

well, maybe... but she shared to me now that she's happy to see that my husband is caring to us his family... but it was really difficult during that time. it's difficult to have a relationship that is against the world (even if it is only my mom who was against it, i consider her my world). i was really like being in between two bumping stones. but i'm happy it ended this way... though our marriage is not really like a fairy tale, but i'm happy to how it is now...

I'm sorry to hear.. falling out of love hurts so much. I hope your daughter takes it well, she needs to know that no matter what happens her parents still love her. I come from a broken family and I know how it hurts when families break apart. I hope you're fine. Did you manage to replace your ex?
