It’s often said that your first love is the most genuine. For some, it remains a fond memory, while for others, it grows into something lasting. No matter the outcome, stories about first love always capture attention.
Here’s the story: I was smitten with a girl in my class, but instead of confessing my feelings, I acted immaturely and teased her. At our graduation, I made a thoughtless joke, which only drove us further apart. After that, I moved to a different city, finished my studies, and tried dating other people—but none of those relationships felt right.
Five years later, our class organized a reunion. When I saw her again, she was even more stunning than I remembered! In a moment of complete spontaneity, I did something wild: I proposed to her in front of everyone. To my amazement, she said yes, leaving our former classmates speechless.
Later on, I discovered that she had always had feelings for me too. Today, we’re happier than ever. We tied the knot quickly, welcomed two wonderful children, and recently celebrated a decade of marriage. Our love continues to grow stronger with each passing day. If there’s one thing I regret, it’s the time we missed out on during those five years apart.
