First loves

[betsystipo]

Today my first love got married.  He and I dated from 18 yrs old til about 24/25.   We broke up at one point for about a month but got right back together.  That love is one I'll never forget.  I don't think you ever forget that love.  For those who marry their first loves, I think thats a special thing.  At the time we broke up, he was still very "young for his age" and wasn't sure about marriage and having kids.  I knew what I wanted from life and after being together that long, I couldn't and wasn't willling to wait for him to figure it out.  It was one of the HARDEST decisions of my life.  We broke up, and man did I try to get him back after that.  He refused, cuz he just knew what I wanted and what he wanted was not the same.  Now 8 yrs later he gets married.  Don't get me wrong - I LOVE my husband, I love my life.  However....you just don't forget that sort of feeling.  I've been sort of meloncholy all day.  Until I found out it was a wedding of "theme" - Devils vs Islanders! LOL  He wore orange (tie, socks and converse), she had a red sash and all her bridesmaids wore red - up to red converse sneakers!  Yikes!  It made me laugh and realize the life I would have had with him would have been soooooo much different then my life now.  and I'm glad I am where I am.  I love my boys and my husband.  Its where I am meant to be.

Doesn't sound like he matured much, does it?
