It was a Tuesday evening. I was on my way to school. While I was riding my bike, I saw this beautiful girl walking down the street going home from school. Suddenly, I felt this fire inside of me which was telling me to stop the bike in order to talk to her. I couldn't even pedal my bike well, nor could I go talk to her. All I could do that day was smile and say Hi to her even though she ignored me.
Two weeks later, we organized a big party at my school, which was open to the public. The first person who walked in was my future and first girlfriend. That night I decided to put every piece of shyness aside to go talk to her. I did approach her gently and she finally accepted to dance with me. She was timid and well dressed and beautiful. I complimented her and finally we exchanged numbers. We had a lot of fun that night.
I begged her for months to be with me but she wasn't into me. Months had passed and I still hadn't gotten the "Yes" that I was looking for. Haitian women are reputed for their qualities of making Haitian men wait. I was patient because I felt pure love for this girl. Somehow, one day she called me and agreed to open and to give me her heart. It was like I felt everything around me was filled with love and happiness. I was the happiest man in the world.
Our relationship started and continued well. We spent four years together and we were the happiest couple ever in the world. During those four years, we argued all the time but at the end of the day we made up. We had this rule that we established in our relationship which was honesty. Even though sometimes, the truth hurt so badly, we had promised each other to always tell the truth. We couldn't spend half a day without talking or texting to each other. We didn't know where this relationship was heading but we were trying so hard to love each other every day.This relationship allowed me to realize how precious a woman is. Since then, I treat every woman with respect. They deserve to be loved, to be cheered up and to be treated with so much appreciation and respect. Even though some of them act badly that doesn't give some people any right to lay their hands on them. This relationship had changed my view and my way of thinking about a woman. I've learned how sometimes the way you expect things to be might turn out differently, but as a man you always have to take control and to calm your woman down especially when you're wrong. Every day counts in a relationship and it was in my power to make it better every day because Love is all about giving, forgiving, trusting and sharing.
