Can you wait?

I met her and got attracted to her. She was young(but not a nipper), innocent and naive in appearance. I got close to her to unravel the mystery behind what attracted me to her. While unearthing that mystery, I found another thing; she was in a relationship. In her words, 'I have promised myself that I am not going to double date. I am in a relationship.' Those words melted my heart.

That is the kind of lady that I crave for to be in a relationship with. No, I didn't tell her to leave her boyfriend. Was I going to let it pass without unraveling the mystery behind the attraction? No. In my words, I replied, 'I will wait. If you are for me, if our paths crossed for a special reason, we will be together someday.'

Thereafter, I went ahead minding my business but it didn't stop me from being desirous. From a distance, I was enjoying the admiration. It was filled with pains and ecstasy. Pain because she was not mine yet and ecstasy because I had the strong conviction that she would be mine someday.

After a year, it happened. She broke up with her man. Remember that I didn't ask her to break up. I only told her my desire to wait. I was not going to wait forever, anyway if she hadn't showed up soon.

My patience paid off! I began the journey once more. We became very close. I was happy when she told me she had broken up but I didn't let it show. Who would? I asked her if I was the reason she broke up. She said, 'No!'

Finally, I had the answers that I was searching for. It was really a mysterious attraction. We didn't meet coincidentally (I don't believe in coincidence, notwithstanding). 

The rest is history...

Now, I want to know. Can you wait for someone like that? Have you waited like that before? Did you wait till infinity and allowed it pass?

Let's talk about it!
