96 Pics That Show How Time Changed People But Not Their Love For Each Other
When I was in 8th grade, I told a girl in 10th grade I was going to marry her one day. She laughed and told me no everytime I said it. But I was resilient —I kept saying it anyway. Every time she brushed me off, I just smiled and told her, ‘You’ll see.’” I became a way for her dad to embarrass her, lol. If he seen me when he was with her, he would always yell to get my attention, she would blush and walk off, hahah I don’t even know what it was, but I was just drawn to her. We went to the same school, but life took us in different directions after high school. We both moved on, had our own struggles, and for years, it seemed like that promise I made was just a childhood dream.
But fate had other plans.
Around our mid-twenties, life brought us back together. The timing was finally right, and everything just clicked. We weren’t kids anymore—we had been through enough to know what we wanted. And I still wanted her, and still do!
We’ve now been together for 19 years, married for 15, and I wouldn’t change a thing. We spent $50 on our wedding band set, and $60 for the wedding. I tried to wear a suit for her (not my thing) but she said she had already picked out what I was wearing! Was a beautiful surprise to see shorts and flip flops, it’s amazing to be with someone who totally gets you. At our wedding, when I was reading her my vows, I looked her in the eye and said, ‘I told you so.’ She loved that line, lol and to top it all off, she had a song made for me called ‘Bobby, You Told Me So’” for our 10th anniversary
She is still my best friend and I’m still chasing her just as hard at 42 as I did at 14! Sometimes, life really does come full circle.
Anybody else chase their spouse that long?
