We all have seen the movies, the most romantic scenes, the perfect kisses, the awkward yet cute kisses, and the Prince Charming's. Do these ever happen though? Do you have an actual love story, one fit for a movie? My sweetest one, was on a trip to Wildwood, NJ. My friend and I were having fun in the ocean, and the sun starting going down. I wanted to get some seashells before it was too dark to see. So we walked along the beach, picking seashells. When the sun was at its peak of setting, all pinks and purples, he turned me around, kissed me and asked me to be his girlfriend. We have been going out for 3 years now, and I love him to death. The way we started dating was something out of a fairy tale and I treasure the memory always. What about the rest of you? Have you had a fairy tale moment? Lets hear the actual love stories, that aren't in a book, but in your life.

As far as I can remember, the relationship I have with my boyfriend now started with a very big joke. I mean our love story wasn't the same with any other love stories in which the guy seriously proposed to a girl to love him. We were both in high school that time and yes, we were still very young indeed. I am a year older than he is. He was very cute and attractive and that he became the campus crush when he was in high school until he reached college level. He was very playboy and never took any relationship seriously. He didn't really courted me like other guys sending flowers and love letters to the girls they like. He was just told by his friends to say that he wants me to become his girlfriend. I also had a boyfriend that time and that we were both in a different relationship when we started ours. It was totally like a game. It was very difficult to explain but we really didn't care about each other at first. I just agreed to be his girlfriend simply because he was popular. One day, I just found myself liking him and I suddenly decided to break up with my real boyfriend. My friends were very surprised about what I did and I was surprised too. So I chose him (my current boyfriend) though I know there is no assurance of a lasting relationship with him. I know I was the first one who fell in love with him. I was hurt many times before because I already knew what kind of guy he was. Many months has passed and that we became closer to each other. We were already dating and of course it was his treat. But then our relationship was tested again. He cheated with me and I was badly hurt because the one involved was a friend of mine. I never hesitated to break up with him. I though it was already the end of our love story since he was the kind of guy who never really treated all his girlfriends nicely. I thought he would just let our relationship die until one day, when I was done crying, he sent a message to me through cellphone asking for my forgiveness. He also tried to call me many times but I didn't answer his calls because I never wanted to be with him anymore because it would only hurt me again. He consistently called me so I finally decided to turn off my cellphone. So I went to another friend's house to have someone to talk to. I was there for about an hour when suddenly someone knocked on my friend's door. It surprised me because it was him. I didn't know that he also called all of my friends to know where I was that time and he came. I didn't want to face him that time but he was begging. He explained to me everything that the girl was the only one flirting with him and that they were already separated because in the first place, he never really loved that girl. He asked me for another chance and so I gave it to him. Now, we've been together for more than 6 years (and still counting). I just hope that we won't encounter some problems again.

That's a sweet sweet story in a weird, twisted, way. Ha ha. It is sweet he went through all that trouble just to stay with you, when he could have gotten with someone else, being a player. But he changed for you, and that's great. Wish you two the best.

Thanks also for your very nice response towards my story. Yes, you're right. It is indeed a very nice love story but somehow, we used to have a lot of problems within our relationship related to his bipolar attitude. Hope i will be able to tolerate it. LOL
