I ... You

This is the best story ever, true story, person remains anonymous--however is very close in my life. Oh Young Love.....

want to hear a crazy story?
so the guy wh fully broke my heart
in dec
who ive spent the last like 7 months getting over
and I was all gonna die and went back to therapy and blah blah
anyway
he has an ex
right.
and they were very much in love
and broke up about a year before we started dating
so like 2 1/2 years ago, if you will
anyway she was all devastated about it
and crushed, like me
and moves to africa
to help orphans
ok
and starts a blog
so he tells me this, when were together
and im all I dont care I love you shut up about the ex
cut to him leaving me
and suddenly it seems more pertinent
so I stalk him, find her, and start reading her blog
this is like in jan
and I find
that I am developing this profound love for this girl. like PROFOUND
so my therapist tells me
you gotta email her
and I'm all
I CANNOT DO THAT
but she says, no, there might be something there for you
that you can't get on your own
so
I email her
in like march
and I say I know this is crazy and blah blah but we both used to care about the same person
and I wanted to tell you you've helped me
and it's crazy
but maybe life is about this kind of serendipity
etc
so
she writes me back
and says I can't explain to you what this means to ME that you've found me
and like it's my goal in life to help people
and this is a gift, blah blah
so now we email
like a lot
and we totally love each other
and we can't tell anyone, right? or like be friends on fb
hahaha
cause everyone would be all WHAT THE HELL
but she's coming back from africa in august and I am like BEYOND excited to meet her

the moral is: do the things you think are insane
if you feel it in your heart
she helped me
because heartbreak is so lonely and you think youre the only one who has ever been there
but she was actually there....with the same person
I tell her that all the time
how kind she is
but honestly
I think she got something out of it too
it helped her too
life goes on
so does love
