| True Happiness Is Possible |
| by DesertDoll |
It took me five years to reealize that happiness does not derive from abuse. Sadly after five long years it slapped me in the face, I wasn't truly happy. I met this guy my Sophomore year in highschool and it was an immediate attraction. We totally hit it off. The first few months of our relationship was like heaven and then slowly things started to change. It started with lying, then cheating eventually it got to emotional and physical abuse. Of course in my eyes him being the "love of my life" I blinded my self from what was truly happening. I forced myself to be happy. Things got really bad in the winter/spring of '01 and I decided that I could not take anymore. I decided to break things off. I'll tell you what, letting go had to be one of the hardest things that I have ever had to go through, and I endured many months of depression. The same month we broke things off I started a new job. I ended up meeting this guy. He has to be one of the most incredible people I have ever met. We were nothing more than friends. After a few months, the company we were working for was bought out and they had a huge layoff. Needless to say we lost touch. About six months later I was on the website that we all used to mess around on while we worked together, and sure enough so was he! We ended up exchanging numbers. We started going out and had a blast just hanging out with eachother. As time progressed, so did our feelings. It has been about six months now and I'm not sure if I am in love but I am sure he makes me so happy! Just this weekend he took me on a surprise trip to Sedona for the day to have a picnic. It was so romantic and I am just beaming with happiness. I love this feeling!!!
