Strange love

Submitted by rebecca (United States), Aug 30, 2008 at 02:22

I am in a situation very close to what you are dealing with. My boyfriend has been here in the US for about 7 years, he is from Agadir. We meet while working together at a very large casino and were in different depts. His first day there he tried to talk to me but I was in my own little world and I ignored him. I feel a little bad about it but i think he kind of liked it.

A manager friend of mine asked me to help out in his dept where he also worked I couldn't keep my mind or my eyes off of him and I didn't even know why(duh), after that we talked all the time, I looked for him on my breaks, made excuses to come to see him, checked his schedule like a spy, came in on my off days, even had erotic dreams which made all of this very embarrasing. I felt like a freakish pervert.

One day when we were playing around I said you play too much. He said he disagreed and that we needed to talk so after work he walked me to my car and he said that he had been looking for me on his breaks, made excuses to come see me checked my schedule like a spy, came in on his off days and was picked on by his friends because he talked about me all the time. How nice was that two freakish perverts that were mutually stalking each other?

Its been 10 months since that day and we have never been apart. We don't say I love you we just know it. We fight all of the time. Its our game. I am mean to him he wants me more. He is mean to me I want him more. We are talking about marriage now. I can't wait. I know I went on and on but I just wanted to say don't over think it love just happens and sometimes its strange, give it time, and don't over think it and don't listen to the internet crap you never know who is on the other side of that keyboard!!!

GOOD LUCK.....
