the other happy couple

The Other Happy Couple

An absolutely beautiful couple!

From the class of 2000, another couple got married. The third, I would say. But not just any couple... both were best friends back in high school.

We've fallen out of the best buds category, moving away from each other in terms of space and interest. Even so, the initial bonds never really sever and at high school the memories of conversations, experiences and all silly, girly stuff (same ol but necessary boy crushes, for instance) are dear to mind and heart.

This couple does really have a great love story to tell. They've withstood everything, really. They had a couple of tries in a relationship during high school, met many, many obstacles especially when he migrated to Australia. But when she went over to Australia just recently to study and look for a new job, they fell in love again and it was as if fates just wanted to test them, perhaps to make them even stronger.

I'm so thrilled for them. Unlike other couples I hear marrying at this age, I am not gasping thinking this is far too early.

In fact, if it were me, I would say it is the unthinkable, regardless of how much I love *Gallant. Frankly, looking at this happy couple and comparing my relationship, I am far from ready to get into a marriage.
