We met at a point in both our lives where we weren’t doing so well. I don’t think either of us could have known how things would develop. When Josh, first messaged me, I had actually turned him down. I’d been burned before and had just recently escaped an abusive relationship. Josh, though I didn’t know it, was himself in a loveless, and at times abusive relationship. I think we needed each other. Our flirting turned to hours long conversation, we wished each other good night every night, and good morning every morning for over a year. As time went on we became almost inseparable. Eventually, Josh, needed to make a choice to either stay with the person he no longer had feelings for or risk losing everything by taking a chance on the girl who made him believe in true love, and he did. He confessed his secrets, and while it wasn’t easy I made the decision to forgive, and accept him. The next year was full of challenges, but we made it through them all. On August, 9th we celebrated our second anniversary one day early, and that’s when Josh, asked me to spend the rest of our lives together.
