One Year Ago Today

One day, a married women came across a flyer for an event. She told all her friends about it and RSVP'd to it on the website that the flyer advertised. Originally her husband planned to attend this event, but plans changed.

The event finally arrived, she and her friends headed to the initial spot. The man who was in charge for this event was there. She got a few words in with him and then off they both went in different directions, but little did they know - the same direction. At that time she was married, he had a girlfriend. They eventually became friends online, but never went further than that log in page.

Spring and Summer passed and heartache came on both ends. Her husband asked for a divorce and he had parted ways from his significant other. Stumbling across information about each other every time they spoke, lead up to a first date. That then lead to a few more dates before he kissed her. In her eyes, everything was great.

After a romantic trip and some warm cuddling she really knew she loved him, but felt it was to soon to tell him. She broke it off. She didn't understand why and how she could feel this way. Feel more than she ever has, even after being so hurt from her divorce. It was heartbreaking to have to tell him this, but thought it was best. The next morning, she woke up sad and full of regret. She wanted him back faster than she could say it. He didn't give second chances and that was that. A few days later, Thanksgiving came and even though it was originally planned that they would spend it together, plans changed. He was in one place and she was in another.

Fortunately, she couldn't stop thinking about him and they came together that night. Lots of words were spoken, short memories were embraced. He told her he loved her and she couldn't of felt more relieved to hear that only because the mess she caused was all because of just that - she had fallen in love with him too.

Thanksgiving passed and so did Christmas. New Years came and they tipped toed around Valentines day. Here they are on the day they met one year ago. A man who's plans were to leave this state and travel the world, a women who thought her future never saw another man in it. Their plans changed.
