Mountain top proposal

June 17, 2021 was the day my wonderful boyfriend of four years, Morgan, finally asked me to be his bride. The day was so unexpected. We were in Upstate, NY planning to spend most of the day outside. We visited his grandmother at her home and looked at all the pretty red/pink roses in her …

How Does A Man Love His Woman?

It makes you wonder, doesn't it? I mean, let's be honest. If you're a heterosexual woman, don't you sometimes wonder how a man would treat a woman he truly loves? I guess you never really know until you realize what you have, while you have it. My relationship is almost perfect. I say almost, because …

Love doesn’t Quit; You do.

Today is a rainy day; no sun in sight. I'm at work, thinking about my life's greatest qualities... A stable job, plenty of money. A nice house, plenty of space. A reliable partner, full of love. Pets, loyal and happy. Family, loving and constant. Sadly one quality shatters, almost all of the others are affected. …

You just have to remember one thing…

Not everyone has the same heart as you. I've learned this lesson a few years ago. No matter what you do for someone, no matter how soft you touch someone's heart, you can never expect to receive the same treatment. If you feel like you're swimming oceans for people who wouldn't swim a lake for …

One vice and two hearts

Left to right, right to left...She shakes her head. Agony, pain, confusion; happy, numb, lucid. Her eyes, her bloodshot eyes are tired. She feels personally conflicted between self control and losing her greatest mind. Two hearts are leading the way, though his beats faster some days. Scary enough, one day is enough to slow down …

Tears in her eyes

She's confused, emotional,  insecure and feeling utterly pathetic. Her heart is protected by thick-skin yet through her own mental self-torturing shatters, she has finally found a weak spot. After years of convincing herself, and others, that she can control what her friends call heartbreak, she has found it. She wonders how in the world she feels this way, when her relationship is nothing …

Distance makes the heart grow fonder…sometimes

Think for a minute the type of person you are typically attracted to. Do they usually carry all of the traits you look for/want in a partner; or do you find yourself settling? Someone much wiser than I am once said to me: it's ok to "settle" to some extent in your relationship...as long as you like …

How love suddenly disappears

I spent hours tossing and turning, glancing over at your side of the bed to see if you were awake. You were. I felt the space between us, I knew something wasn't right. I could literally feel the distance between us, as if our hearts were pulling away from each other. I pretended to be asleep, and …

Russian Roulette with the Heart

There you are, right there. Sitting down, looking over at him. Wondering about this imagined life between you and him. You see a home sitting on acres of clean cut green grass, there's a pool with crystal clean water with a diving board surrounded by trees with fall-colored leaves, you see kids running around with an …

To love her…

I said: Take your time with me. Show me who you are and what you can do. Display your affection, your admiration, your respects...and demonstrate to me the early love you feel. It's only just the beginning. Show me what you know and...don't rush; take your time.  Under sudden circumstances, opportunity has come and introduced …
