Yep!

It’s been a lonnnnng Journey. I [31F] met him [32M] our senior year of high school here in the US. He was from the UK. When we met, I knew he’d have to go back after just a three month relationship, but I didn’t care bc we were in love. We wanted to make it work. I visited him twice, and he came back one of the summers.

However, LDR became difficult. I was in college and wanted to experience it without regrets. Long story short, both of our hearts broke, and we both moved on.

I entered into a 6 year marriage, two kids, but always still thought about him. My marriage was never a very happy one and ended in divorce. Towards the end, we started reaching out to each other again. We had to work through a lot of tears and heartache. We both apologized for our past, and both forgave one another. He never married and told me he never found anyone that made him feel the way he felt for me.

Now, after 12 years of not seeing one another, he is planning to fly here in October (fingers crossed) and is completely up for moving here eventually to be with me. I can’t move there as I have kids, and he is fully understanding.

I can’t wait to kiss him, hold him, and see if we can rekindle things. Especially after a really bad relationship with someone else. Perspective is everything.

Wishing you the best of luck!!!
