As a child I never understood the pain my mother had with my father. She once cried and told me to never love anyone more than he loves you. That way you won't get hurt.. it stayed with me all the way til I met this man.. he loved me so much and treats me so well. As I see my friends relationship failing and my heart breaks for them.. I am grateful for my own relationship. He is now my husband for almost 16 years and we are still growing strong.
