#15: Together Seven Years Apart


Memoir - Week 15

Saying I love you to one another elevated our relationship; or perhaps cemented what was already there. Whichever was more accurate, maybe a combination of both, it pointed to our unassailable commitment to each other, and our legitimacy as a couple. Never mind that people here and there viewed our connection as a doomed fairy tale.

While others understood, “Yeah it’s risky, Julian, but it’s so hard to find someone in life you feel this way about. I agree. I think you should go for it” reassured Sharon, a lady I worked with at the time.

Had I conferred with a male I suspect I may have received a different perspective, at least from some males. Although not exclusively, matters of the heart – at the expense of purely physical gratification –  often find a happier home in a woman.
