A Personal Question Of Love - March 8th, 2005 at 12:20 AM
Hi everyone ~
Do any of you remember that last year while we were posting about our personal Christmas wishes, I said I wished my Loved One would simply say the words? He's been showing me for years now with all his might all the wonderful things he feels about me, but still, I've been hoping to hear his magnificent voice say his feelings.
My Christmas Wish came true yesterday! And I swear to you all, it was the loveliest sound I've ever heard. It wasn't just hearing those simple words but also the look on his face, his gesture, the tone of voice he used, the place and time...oh, somehow the entire moment was wrapped up in a delightful simplicity that made his sincerity seem so sterling.
Ever since, I've been hearing those words re-echoing in my ears, and it's been soothing my sometimes lost little heart. I know with a certainty that somehow, hearing him say the words strengthened me and helped me grow up into them. Is that idea too weird? What I mean is just so hard to explain!
I've known for ages how he felt because he makes it so clear in every possible situation, yet somehow I was too childish to trust what he was showing me in his soul. Then, when the words came out of his mouth, he made it such a gift that I stood there a second in his arms and felt my juvenile fears melt away. I will never doubt this man again.
Trust doesn't come easy to me. My Ex's adultry, coming out of the blue as it did, nearly slayed me and for years afterwards, I didn't think I'd ever really recover. So I'm easily spooked, tis true enough.
So now I'm wondering about the rest of you. When did you first hear your loved one tell you the truth of his heart toward you? Did the relationship change instantly or deepen over time? Did hearing it change you in some way or how you thought of him?
Ok, ok, I admit these are nosy questions! But don't fault a woman in love for wanting to hear more about it from other women she trusts and admires! You guys have spoiled me rotten with your generous posts, so I'm hoping you won't mind me asking this as well.
