"You've never been married?"
This wasn't the first time I'd been asked this question, but it always surprises me. I've waited my whole life to find someone who'd want to marry me, but part of me still feels like a kid who's too young to be married. Even though it seems like everyone around me is pairing off.
"No," I scoffed. "Not even close."
A pause.
"How about you? Any kids? Ever been married?"
"Nope," said Joe, a good five to ten years older than me. "I've always wanted to, but..."
"It just never happened," I said.
Joe was speechless.
"I know," I said. "People ask me all the time why I'm not with someone, why I'm not married. They ask me what's wrong, if I'm too picky, whatever, and the answer is: It just never happened."
"Yeah," Joe said. "I'm glad you understand."
It didn't happen between me and Joe either.
The reason?
There was no reason. It just didn't happen.

I have tear here. it never happen to me as well through 34 years. I always wondered how it happens to other women/ men, and from what I see it's real LOVE, or just contract/ deal/ safety exit. If it's a contract it's better than it never happened.
ReplyDeleteWhen it's LOVE, it will happen, it happens to everyone who really wants it and who believe it will happen.
