Love That Survived, Friendship That Thrived.

Well, I've had few love stories too, and I will like to share one out of it. Most of my love stories, no, all, all of my love stories started with friendships, we all are different and that's just me. I'm not the type to see a girl I like and walk up to her to ask her out instantly, nah, I won't even do that after weeks, maybe months. I love to start it off as friends, that way I get to know you a little and you know.....

Let's dive into my story....

I met this girl on campus then, in my department fellowship. And we began to talk, gist laugh and all, along the line we got close and started seeing each other more often. She's a beauty 😍, like, she's tall, light skinned, beautiful and all, she's the kind of girl that you will definitely turn your head if she walks past you.

But then, she was just my own person, and even before we began to date we were already close, and when we started dating and my friends knew, they were a little bit surprised and at the same time shocked, they were like, "Toyo, what did you do, how did you do it, you don't mean it..." And me I was like, "ahah, are fine, light skinned girls not for me?" And to be honest, I didn't do anything, just that we talk a lot, rub minds, sit together, visit and all those little things added up together to build us.

And we dated for few years (in school), and sincerely those years were real ones, the love was there, not the social media kind of love, nah. But along the line, life happened to us and we had to let each other go. And til now, we are still very close, and one of the reasons why I still appreciate and respect her is because she stood by me at a time when I was at my lowest, when all hope was gone, when life came at me with full force, this lady stayed through it all, such is rare.

And like I said, we are still close till now. We are serving in same state, but very far to each other, still we try to see.
Thinking about it now, it's funny to see how that neither of us ever talked about the failed relationship, we have never tried to bring up the old memories or talk about how it could work again. We've both moved on, and we respect each other.

I've moved on and she has moved on too, and I'm sincerely happy for her, we still talk, see each other, laugh, gist and such. As you can see in the first slide, she's beautiful 😍, but what I admire/love most is her beautiful heart.
