If you love something set it free.....

If it comes back to you, it is yours to keep. If it doesn't then it was never yours to begin with... I believe the saying goes something like that!

A couple of blogs back I told you all about my lost love. It was a very rough time for me, but all's well that ends well! SHE CAME BACK!! So according to the saying, she is mine to keep :) so hopefully this blog is the beginning of a "Happily Ever After" story.

So now I will let you in on just a little more of the story so that I can make you understand why I am happy and to squash any thoughts that I may be a love struck fool.

When Jamie left, it was because she was fresh out of a relationship that she was still a little confused about how she felt about it. To clear out that confusion, she had to end things with me and see if there was anything there anymore. Although I caught the bad hand in this decision for a while, I completely understand why it had to be done. I had experienced this same situation for myself once before. When I first got with my ex wife, I was also fresh out of a relationship. I was very young and confused about my decision to be with her so after some talking and convincing from the other girl, I went back to her for a month. I just had to know for sure that it was over. Very shortly after getting back with her, I realized that the love was lost and it was never going to work out. I felt refreshed after that because I could move forward without looking back, because of spending that month with her, my heart was free and I never had any regrets...

Because of that experience I can fully know now that Jamie's heart is free to love, and that we can move forward without her ever looking back. It was a tough price for me to pay, but worth it to know that she can now fully be mine. We have had a lot of conversations about where to go from here and how she feels about things and she feels exactly the same way that I did when I went through the same thing years ago. As I feel right now, I really believe that we have the recipe for a long and happy relationship... Of course, only time can tell if that is really meant to be, but now we can do it without any distractions. Now if it doesn't work out, we will be the only people to blame. So, back to my whimsical belief that "Love is all we need". Wish us luck, and if you read my blog on a regular basis, I am sure that you will have some front row seats to our life together...
