In Honor of Valentines Day- A love Story

      Well its Valentines Day so let me share a little story with you. Once there was a girl who fell for guys way too quickly and always for the wrong ones. She caused herself alot of extra heartache because of this. So in high school the girl falls in love and is convinced that she has found the one. She loves him unconditionally. She goes above and beyond and gives 100%  to the relationship. Needless to say she is not loved back and is not treated kindly at all. So the day comes when the girl finds out some awful things and finally breaks up with the boy, but He still has her heart for years afterwards. No matter how hard She tries to move on She can't because She still loves him. She goes out on dates, but always pushes each guy away no matter if she likes them or not  because she is so afraid of being hurt again. Then She meets another special guy and again way too quickly she starts to fall for him. Only a few short months later she was single and heartbroken again. So the girl decides the best thing to do is never to love again. So she makes up her mind and life goes on.
       Then one day a guy She had known all her life asked her out. To say she was shocked is an understatement. She had never ever thought of this guy as anything but a friend. So she decided why not? At least it will get me out of the house for a night. The guy was so sweet and opened her door and was very respectful. The girl had never been on a date with a guy like that so it was all new to her. So her and the guy went on another date and another date and guess what. The girl was starting to fall in love, and even though this guy was so different from all the rest she still didnt want to trust him. The girl broke up with the guy and then they would get back together and this happened three times. The  third time they were broke up for alot longer than the other times. So the guy got set up on a date with someone else. The girl just happened to be where Him and the lady met to go on their date. Do you think that was coincidence or a God thing??  The girl barely made it home before the tears began to fall. She was heartbroken. She knew then that She wanted to be with the guy. She knew She had treated him bad and finally realized that She was in love with the guy, but was so afraid of  getting hurt that she pushed him away without even realizing she was the one hurting him. So she cried herself to sleep that night and promised herself that if she could get him back she would never let him go again. She would love him the way He had been loving her all along. So the next day She text him and they started talking again and turned out He missed her too and they got back together. Only this time was different The girl finally let her guard down and not even a month later the girl got a engagement ring. They were so happy and two months later they got married. Even though others said they wouldnt make it and  were too young (19 and 22) against all statistics they are still together today and are still very much in love.  The girl now sees that this guy is the guy God hand picked for her, and  even though she made mistakes and was not on the right path God steered her around and brought her right to this guy. Even though they are in love and happy that does not mean everything is easy, but what makes their relationship work is two people giving 100% and keeping God in the marriage.  If you didnt catch on I am the girl and the guy at the end is Jeremy :).  This is our love story and it has Gods hand prints all over it. We dont have the most romantic or glamorous story, but We are proud to be a couple who has beat the odds.
