Can you imagine getting engaged on Christmas day? What about packing up your life and driving across the country to live with your fiance? Now how about if you and your fiance got married on New Year's Day? Just imagine marrying your best friend. The one person you know who is right for you.
I can. I would have in a heart beat. If he proposed to me, I would drop everything to be with him. Except now I'm dealing with something different. I'm living the nightmare.
My friend did all those things. She and her [now] husband are so in love. I can honestly say I have never seen any two people so head over heels for each other. They never fight or at least they just have small arguments but that's as far as it goes. They are perfect for each other and everyone can see it. No one judges the quick engagement and marriage. We all know it's right.
She is living the fairy tale ending. She's the princess who found her prince charming. And now they live happily ever after. I want what they have. I want it so badly it hurts. I wanted it with him...
Someday I will have that fairy tale. My prince charming will come. Underneath all of my flaws, there is a bit of a princess in me. And this princess is going to move on with her life. He always said he'd take me to my first Blazers game. Well, guess what?
Looks like I can hold my own.
