I was in love with my classmate but didn’t know how to tell her. Instead, I teased her. At graduation, I messed up by making a mean joke. Then I moved to another city, finished college, and tried to date other women, but it didn’t work out.
After 5 years, my classmates planned a reunion. I saw her there, and she looked even more beautiful! I did the craziest thing in my life: I asked her to marry me in front of everyone. She said yes, and our classmates were shocked.
Later, I found out she loved me too. Now we’re happy. We got married quickly, had 2 beautiful children, and recently celebrated 10 years of marriage. We love each other more every day. I only regret the 5 years we lost.

“This hits home. The ‘could have, should have’ moments really sting, but seeing how it all came together gives hope to everyone who’s been holding back their feelings.”

“Talk about a plot twist! I thought this was going to be a sad ‘what if’ story, but wow, you turned it into a fairytale. Here’s to never giving up on love!”

“Just goes to show: if you really care, sometimes you’ve got to make the bold move. So glad it worked out for you both, and here’s to the next 10 years!”
