*Excerpt*


Our story reads like it came out of The Adjustment Bureau or The Notebook. We believe we manifested each other because she prayed for a good man to enter her life, and I wished for a good woman I could love mentally and physically. I was meant to be in her life for emotional support, and she was meant to be in my life to provide me peace. During our teenage and young adult years, there were opportunities when we could have started dating again; however, we didn’t because we had to live our lives separately before becoming a committed couple. We believe we had to experience painful and exhausting relationships with other people, so that we could learn we weren’t missing out on anyone or anything.

 

...it's a real life urban fairy tale, that ends in a Disney Fairy Tale Vow Renewal.
