I met her on a night very much like this one. I’d like to say I was the knight in shining armour, and she was the damsel, but I was both, and so was she. Both rescuer and rescuee.
I yearned for someone to walk through life with. Someone to crack corny jokes with, to talk about the mundane and the profound. Someone to vent with and celebrate with. Someone to experience the new and the familiar. Someone who longed for the same things as me.
We met by chance, the mythical serendipity. She read a message, this message, and sent a reply. Both uncertain, both a little jaded, but there was enough of a spark to eventually fan into flame. Two souls who needed something. Something they should have found in their spouses, but instead found in each other. A connection.
It wasn’t happily ever after, that’s not what we seek here, but a moment. A moment that stretches over minutes, hours, days, months, and sometimes even years. But a moment we both need. Patience, passion, respect, companionship. The disclaimer to change nothing in your life.
I’m 40, a dad, married, and I have a story. What’s yours?
Am I here to meet you, on a night very much like this one?
