Love Story: Love Conquers All

By: Misty

It goes back into my past about 5 years ago. I was dating this guy named Tony and I dated him for about a year and a half. He was a good guy but had a hard time being faithful I would always catch him doing something wrong. Me and him would both party a lot and there was always lots of people around us. Well he had this best friend named Mike that use to come around sometimes and Mike had a girlfriend at the time as well. Mike was an extremely good looking guy and very funny he and Tony would stay making me laugh. Tony used to go out to New Orleans with Mike and they would go party together out there and I was rarely invited to go which hurt me so bad and left me crying a lot!! I would call his phone and he would tell me some really sweet things that I took to heart and things that made me love him. Well needless to say me and Tony ended up breaking up and would still talk every now and then. Later on in my life I met this guy named Lonnie that was also a great guy but we were best friends before we started dating. We ended up getting engaged and stayed together for 3 and half years. During the last 6 months of our relationship love just started to fade or what I thought at the time was love. I now look back and realize I cared about him allot and loved him more as a friend than anything else. As my life went on me and him ended up breaking up. I was sad because he was good guy but I knew that he belonged with someone that could love him and I couldn’t it wasn't meant to be. I started going out again and having fun things that he never liked me doing. One night I was out I ran into Tony again after 5 years and I was shocked and happy to see him. I hung out with him a few times after that and we tried to see if we could work things out again but it never felt the same my feelings did not exist like that for him anymore only as friends. One night I hung out with him and he went meet Mike and it had been years since I had seen Mike. I felt very attracted to him but this time was different. Well on another night Tony invited me to go hang out with him and Mike so I did. We all had soooo much fun together just laughing and joking. As the night went on Tony left me and Mike there by ourselves so me and him talked and found out so many things we had in common. I realized he was soooo much like me I felt a strong connection. I continued to talk to Mike from the day on me and him started really falling for each other but it was an odd situation because I used to date his friend a while back(Tony)We continued to talk and I knew I was falling for him with no brakes. I was so attracted to him in so many different ways. It got to a point my stomach would be filled with butterflies when he was around. Eventually we ended up telling Tony how we felt for each other and later he accepted it. Me and Mike started spending all of our time with each other just loving on each other and long talks about our lives. One horrible night tragedy stuck me and Mike were together at a hotel and we were talking about how much we had feelings for each other when the phone rang it was the cops. They told Mike he needed to get to Tony's moms house that something had happened. He started crying and left running all the way to her house. I called Mike and he told me to come over there when I got there he told me Tony got shot and he's dead. The pain I felt and he felt was horrible almost like a nightmare. We stood there in each others arms crying. Tony and Mike were so close just like brothers. I was sad for the loss of Tony and scared that I would lose Mike in the mist of this. All I knew is no matter what I had to be there for Mike I stayed with him for weeks dealing with this horrible event that from that night it happened changed both of our lives forever. The saying time heals is very true because it did me and Mike found ourselves falling in love even more after that and felt comfortable talking about Tony and the funny things he did. At this point in my life now I have realized so much life is to short and we should always forgive and not go to sleep mad at anyone. I also learned that even in the hardest times you can find true love because I did. Mike is my rock and my heart and I never want to be without him. He means everything to me and we want to get married. I know what true love is since I met him and wouldn't change this feeling for the world. I love him with all my mind, heart, body, and soul. I love you Mike.
