How First Sucks

Ever remembered your first crush? Your first date, first kiss, first I love you and the entire first in your life? This entire first in your life can be so unforgettable and memorable. And how about your first heartache and your first baby? Let me tell you my friend’s story.

She met this guy at work whom she never expected to fall in love with. Why? Because he wasn't the ideal man she wants. But weeks later, she felt something towards this guy and her only reason of falling for is because the guy is so caring and thoughtful. He would always accompany her during lunch and dinner, bring her food during work, fetches her after work and spends more time with her. At first she was ignoring the guy knowing the guy is committed to another girl but as months passed, this not-so-cute guy turned to be his ideal man unexpectedly. Simply because of what he’s been showing to her. How thoughtful and sweet he was. Every girl would want a man like that huh?

Months passed and their friendship bloomed to romance as the guy told her that her girl already broke up with him. But Lila my friend was there to comfort and understand him through the break up process and all the pain it left the guy. And so they've decided to be together. They were both so happy in the relationship. They spend so much time together, eat together, and always make everyday memorable.

It was almost their first anniversary they found out she was pregnant. Unprepared but happy to know they’ll be having their baby soon. Lila wasn't actually ready to be pregnant since she’s sick and the doctors told her she could die if she’ll continue the child. But too eager to raise the baby, she didn't think of what may happen to her, she continued the pregnancy even the guy told him not to since it was the doctor’s recommendation. Since then, they fought a lot. They've been fighting because Lila would really want to continue the baby but the guy wont – afraid he would lose her after giving birth.

It’s almost nine months of Lila’s pregnancy when she found out her boyfriend and her ex-girlfriend got back together. Her world almost crashed when she heard about this. She couldn't do anything but cry. She weeps at night, she barely eat. She hid her tears and tried to be strong not for her but for the baby as well. It was just so painful for her since it was her first heartache. And the fact that she’s pregnant, she never expected the guy would cheat on her. She believes things happen for a reason – she just don’t understand what the reason could be. I mean their relationship was quite perfect, they seldom fight, and they loved each other so much. Even I couldn't understand why this had to happen.

Lila who've been in so much pain was brought to the hospital before her due date. She gave birth 2 weeks earlier than the expected delivery date. The guy came to see her and the baby. He was even crying when he talked to her asking for forgiveness. Lila still loves him so much but she thinks it’s better to just end everything so the pain couldn't hurt her deeper.

Until now, they haven’t got back together. Lila wanted the guy to suffer the way she did. She wanted him to realize her worth and that she have all the right to keep her baby away from him if he’s not gonna change. Good thing is, the guy made every single effort he can to show how sorry he is for hurting her.

First heartache really sucks. It can break and make you. We all know it’s not easy and it will never be to go through the healing process after a hurtful heartbreak. All we can do is be strong and learn to love ourselves more than how much we can love others. Though we cannot stop ourselves from loving someone too much, we are still responsible for ourselves.

Love but with limitations even if the person is our ideal man.

When Exceptions Aren't Really ARE Exceptions

When people fall in love unexpectedly, the romance is more thrilling and memorable. But what if enemies turned lovers? Exciting, huh?

Millions of singles searching for love would in any way expect a stranger or a friend perhaps to be their ideal partner. The friendship that blooms after meeting could be the first step in finding out you like a certain person though there is no guarantee that the person will feel the same way for you. But through the wonders of love, everything could be possible – that even enemies can be lovers in the end.

Let me tell you a story about my friend and her guy and how they ended up loving each other.

My best friend in junior year hates one of our friends so much. To think the guy is cute and smart. But they can’t get along well, there’s no single day that passes they won’t fight even on small things, their wants and ideas don’t collide. I mean they can’t just be friends at all. One gloomy day, this guy saw my best friend fell off from the bike while we were on the park. Me, being able to know how they treat each other thought he’ll just laugh at my friend but surprisingly, he came in to hold her and brought her on the bench. Well, it was actually the very first day I saw them laughing together.

Weeks and months passed and they suddenly managed to hang out together without fighting. They even go out without letting us know. Our friends were very surprised what happened with them.

To cut the long story short, while we were having our Christmas Eve party, they told us they’ve been dating for the past few months and decided to be together after this guy confided he really liked her though they’ve been fighting all this time. And yes to tell you guys, they’re still together now celebrating their 5^th year anniversary and will soon get married.

Basically, love doesn’t require two people to like each other for the romance to bloom. We usually take for granted those people who we thought we’d never like and we’d never fall for. But this story of my best friend and her guy inspires me so much that love really works magically. One day you don’t like him, the next day you’re already in love. Though there is no guarantee of not being hurt once you allow yourself to get involved with it, true love proves that nothing is impossible!

So if you’re still doubtful of someone or something, you must first give it a try. Who knows you might just love what’s ahead of you.
