It was almost 5 years ago that I worked at the mall selling phones for a shady company who we’ll not name. Across the way there was a girl who worked there by the name of Melissa. She worked there selling jewelry. She would always talk to my co-workers and only make eye contact with me. I didn’t know if she was too shy or if she just wasn’t diggin me.

So finally one day frustrated with her ignoring me I walked up to her and ask her how she was and why she didn’t say hi to me. She kind of blushed and said nerviously “HI!”. I told her I thought she was cute and asked her if she was going to give me her number or what. She was shocked by my bluntness and says “Sure?!”

So we talked for a while and went on a couple of dates. Then one night in January around 1 am i asked her if she wanted to be a couple. She said she’d love too and that was the start of a great relationship. It went on for almost 5 years and involved a engagement.

Unfortunately sometimes people grow apart. We had our ups and downs but normally recovered quickly. Well the time pass and the less we connected and the harder it was to recover from fights. But when it ended something new was born.

A new relationship was created from the old, a great friendship. Most couples that split let the whole thing die out which is sad. Why? You loved each other and now nothing? We care very much about each other and it is hard to not to be together but sometimes it’s just what you have to do to be truly happy.

I have to say that I am happy for the 5 years we had and I am saddend by the end of it, but we are both still pretty young and have time to have some fun. As my father once told me “If you truely love something, then let it go and if it’s ment to be then it’ll come back to you.”
