Real Life Love Story
Inter-Knot- Written by Jennifer
I was never much of one for computers or technology so I wasn’t one of the people whom was overly excited about the internet. I admit I tinkered around with some online games but as far as instant messaging, heck no!!!! That was scary to me, not knowing who was really on the other end of the screen. I had a dear friend that joined the service and turns out our only means of communication would be through a West Virginia chat room. Boo to that idea. I reluctantly logged onto the room and pretty soon every perv in the world was messaging me. It was all the same, A/S/L, over and over again and it became annoying.
It was a hot June day in 2006, I remember it well because I had worked a double shift. I came in, showered and started dinner. The kids were going to my ex-husbands for the weekend. We had been divorced for eight years and he finally started to keep his daughter one weekend a month like he was suppose to, my son however, is not his biologically but he never treated him as so. Anyway, dinner was done, kiddos on their way so I am all alone. Huh!! I turned on my computer to play a couple of word games then it happened. I hear the infamous ding of an instant message. I ignored it, Another ding. Persistent I tell you, he was persistent!!! I looked at the magic little box and it was a name that I hadn’t recognized. It simply said, “Hi.” I replied with a “Hi” and then the conversation went on from there. He asked how I was doing and I asked him the same. The conversation didn’t last long maybe all of twenty minutes. He messaged me every day from that point always asking how my day was. This went on for about four weeks then finally we exchanged numbers. He called and I swear I fell in love with his voice that very moment!!! He is Brazilian but lived in Los Angeles his entire life. My God if you could only hear that accent. It melted in my ears. I was always partial to men with accents but holy cow, tall, dark, handsome and with an accent, he was like my dream man!!!! When we spoke he made fun of my southern accent, but later confessed he thought it was cute.
He became my best friend over a course of about four years. No romantic involvement, just my best friend. How could we be romantic anyway when he lived 2700 miles away. I accepted that we were friends but I think I always wanted more. We talked about everything, he knew my life and I knew his. He was always so polite and ever so faithful to ask me how my day was. Then in 2010 he told me he loved me. Now mind you I had fallen in love with him years before. I love you to I told him back. We were a couple. We had a long distance relationship like no other. We still hadn’t seen each other face to face for Pete sakes, but it was love.
In 2010 I booked my flight for Los Angeles, February 25th, his birthday!!! We were going to meet. I was so excited I could hardly contain it. I arrived at LAX, made my way to the baggage claim and as I came down the escalator there he stood!!!! He had my favorite flower, a tulip, and the biggest smile I have ever seen on a man in my life. We hugged and then were on our way. It wasn’t scary or strange to me, I already knew him. We spent the next ten days in California living like the couple we were. I was so happy. He smiled as he showed me everything there and what he did in a typical day. I fell in love with him even more. Then March 5th it was time for me to leave and come back to West Virginia. I cried and cried because I didn’t want to leave him there. He cried and cried because I had to leave him there. I made my way back home and greeted my children, oh how I missed them. We settled in and I told them all about my little mommy-vacation. They inquired if I was sad to leave him there and when I was going back. I told them I didn’t know, I had work and so many other obligations at home. My heart was breaking but I tried to keep it under control.
He called me when I got settled and we were still both crying. We both knew we were meant to be together as a couple and being apart was just not an option for either of us. He asked me if it would be alright if he left California and moved to West Virginia!!! Alright!!!!!!! That was the best idea he had to date. I began to feel selfish though. How would it be fair to him to leave everything he has ever known, his friends his family and his life to move 27oo miles to be with me? On April 22nd, 2010, I was back on a plane to Los Angeles, one way flight, I went back to get my true love!!! We packed up his car and drove across the United States back to West Virginia all because he loved me so unconditionally that he couldn’t live without me and I the same. It is now 2013 and we are still a couple, still in love and soon will be husband and wife. He still looks at me out of the blue and smiles and just simply says, “Hi.”
