Your first love....

I was about 20 when I first fell in love. I had been working for three years and had never really loved anyone. He called me up one day and we started speaking. I just really thought that he was a really cool guy. Someone I could speak to. We would speak once in a while for at least four or five hours and would no make a habit of calling one another as he really stayed far away. As weeks and month went by this guy started calling more regulary and I was just happy that we started communicating more. I mean at least I had someone I could confide in and just let go with. It was a really good relationship I had. The one day my sister asked me if I knew that this guy liked me. I was really just his friend and asked him if this was true. He was so shocked by the question that he didn't say anytthing to me. And I left it that. Later that week he admitted that he had a liking to me and I must admit without his call I did miss him too. Now remember that we had never met or seen each other. We were just chatting over the phone and it was a great relationship. I began to get curious and really wanted to meet him. So I made arrangements to go see this guy that was chatting to me over the phone. When we met.... Oh when we met I knew that I was in love with him. You know that feeling you have for someone who changes your life on so many levels. You get a lump in your thoat just thinking of them. Wow... for the first time in my life I loved someone so much it hurt when we said good-bye. It was like like having your best moments of life put together. There is nothing like your first love. No one can describe to you the pain of not being able to be together all of the time. Unfortuantly it was not meant to be that we stay together. We broke up about 2 years ago and I have not seen him since. Oh how I miss him. Oh how I still love him. I mean I have carried on with my life. But your first love remains the hardest and most difficult to forget. Someone out there ever experience love so deep, love so true, love so tender, love that does not count wrongs, love that never fails. Come on, tell us about it?

i met my first love when i was in 4th yr. higschool.3 yrs had passed yet he's still on my mind. but i think the feeling was not that intense. he was never been my boyfriend. there's nothing happen between us. we remain strangers though my friends is his friend. actually it was my fault. i really cant share you exactly what happen coz sometimes it really made me cry everytime i remember those things. you know im still moving on.

I thought I was in love in seventh grade. Looking back on it now I know I wasn't, he was just a curse I like more than usual. I did fall in love though when I was 19. I met him when I was 18 but I wasn't really sure until a few months later. I didn't want to jump into anything to fast. His the first guy I have ever really been serious with and I don't mind. I know everyone asks well how do you know he's right for you. I don't but I do know that I love him so much I don't care to look anymore.

Yeah really I have fallen in love..... Its great... It all started August 2005. I joined the church choir group for the first time. There was this cute girl behind the casio. Man she was really cute. From the very site I felt something special about her. I didn't know about my own feelings till the day she broke the sad news of her leaving the place. Man I was psyched and for that purpose I fasted for a week and prayed to God that she may not go like this from my life. It felt so stupid, I even bought a card to bid farewell but then she told us all that the leaving got cancelled. I was overjoyed. I befriended her and we became nice good friends. I even started flirting with her, giving her hints to my emotions. I don't know when or how she got so emotional about me that before even could collect any strength, she called me up and confessed her love to me. mI still remember it was 2nd January 2006. Man that was the most beautifull year of my life. My heart was pounding when she said "I like you". Since that day I started meeting her regularly and I would even come from my hostel, 40km away just to see her. We just used to meet every evening, no matter how it was. It was really wonderfull. The she started giving exams for her college admissions and soon by July 2006 she was got into a very nice college but in some different city. I was quite sad and so was she, but you know what we are still together and we never kepot out of touch. I even went to her city once. Now I am trying to earn some money online so that I may sometimes go to her when ever she wants and for tha I don't wan to wait long or panic. Recently she came here for her holidays and we had loads of fun. She is really special to me man. Though her colleges are starting and she will leave this sunday, still I am happy as I know I did give her a good time. LOVE IS WONDERFULL. I will never let he go.!!!! Thats it. I won't Ever give UP!!! Take Care May GOD Bless YOU
