Stories about love and not. Love stories

Everything happens in life! And Love has not only Everything, but Everything in the World!

"Zhenya plus Zhenya"

Once upon a time there was a girl, Zhenya... Does this beginning remind you of anything? Yes Yes! The famous and wonderful fairy tale “Tsvetik-Semitsvetik” begins in almost the same way.

In fact, everything starts differently... The girl named Zhenya was eighteen. There were literally a few days left until school graduation. She didn’t expect anything special from the holiday, but she was going to participate (attend) in it. The dress was already prepared. Shoes too.

When graduation day arrived, Zhenya even changed her mind about going where she had planned. But her friend Katya “tuned” her to her previous plans. Zhenya was surprised that for the first time (in her entire life) she was not late for the event. She arrived at it in a second and couldn’t believe her watch!

Her reward for such a “feat” was meeting the guy of her dreams, who, by the way, was also Zhenya’s namesake.

Zhenya and Zhenya dated for nine years. But on the tenth day they decided to get married. We decided and did it! Then we went to Honeymoon, to Turkey. In such a romantic period, they also did not leave themselves without “humor”….

They went for a massage. They had this pleasant procedure performed in the same room, but by different people. Since the massage therapists spoke little Russian, the atmosphere was already special. Of course, the specialist massage therapists were interested to know the names of their “guests”. The one who massaged Zhenya asked her name. The second masseuse found out the name of Zhenya’s husband. Apparently, the massage therapists really liked the coincidence of names. And they made one big joke out of it... They started calling Zhenya on purpose so that he and she would turn around, react and flinch. It looked funny!

"The Long-Awaited Boat of Love"

The girl Galya received her education at a private and prestigious higher education educational institution. The years passed very quickly for her. In the third year they picked up running because Galochka met her true love. Her aunt bought her a two-room apartment in a good area, and Sasha (her boyfriend) renovated it. They lived peacefully and happily. The only thing that Galya took a long time to get used to was Sasha’s long business trips. He is a sailor. Galya did not see him for four months. The guy came for a week or two and left again. And Galya was bored and waited, waited and missed...

She was more bored and sad because Sanya was against dogs and cats, and Gala was lonely waiting for his return. And then a classmate of a girl turned up who needed an apartment (a room in it). They began to live together, although Sasha was against such living.

Tatyana (Gali’s classmate) changed her life like no one else. This quiet woman who believed in God took Sasha away from Gali. What the girl experienced is known only to her. But a little time passed, and Sasha returned to his beloved. He begged her for forgiveness, because he realized his “harsh” mistake. And Galyunya forgave... Forgave, but did not forget. And he is unlikely to forget. Just like what he told her on that very day of his return: “She was very similar to you. Your main difference is that you were not homely, but Tanya has always been like that. I’m leaving somewhere - I’m calm, I’m not worried that she’ll run away from me somewhere. You are another matter! But I realized that you are the best and I don’t want to lose you.”

Tanya left the lovers' life. Things started to look up. Now Galka is waiting not only for a boat of love with the owner of her heart, but also for their wedding day. It has already been set and no one is going to change the date.

This life story teaches us that true love never dies, that there are no obstacles in true love.

“New Year’s breakup is the beginning of new love”

Vitaly and Maria fell in love so much that they were already planning to get married. Vitaly gave Masha a ring, confessed his love a thousand times... At first everything was as great as in the movies. But soon the “weather of relationships” began to deteriorate. AND New Year the couple celebrated no longer together... Vitalya called the girl and said the following: “You are very cool! Thank you for everything. I felt incredibly good with you, but we are forced to part. It will be better not only for me, but also for you, believe me! I'll call again." Tears flowed from the girl’s eyes in streams, her lips, hands and cheeks trembled. Her lover hung up... Her beloved left her forever, trampling her love... This happened almost at midnight on New Year's Day...

Maria threw herself on the pillow and continued to cry. She would have been glad to stop, but nothing worked for her. The body did not want to listen to her. She thought: "This is the first New Year's celebration, which I am destined to meet in complete solitude and with such deep trauma....” But the guy who lived in the next entrance “created” a different turn of events for her. What did he do that was so unearthly? He just called and invited her to celebrate a magical holiday. The girl denied it for a long time. It was hard for her to speak (tears got in the way). But the friend “defeated” Maria! She gave up. She got ready, put on her makeup, took a bottle of delicious wine, a bag of delicious sweets, and ran to Andrey (that was the name of her friend - the savior).

A friend introduced her to another friend of his. Who, a few hours later, became her boyfriend. That's how it happens! Andryukha, like the rest of the guests, got very drunk and went to bed. And Maria and Sergei (Andrey’s friend) stayed talking in the kitchen. They didn’t even notice how they met the dawn. And none of the guests believed that nothing but conversations happened between them.

When it was time to go home, Seryozha wrote his mobile number on a crumpled piece of newspaper. Masha did not answer in kind. She promised that she would call. Maybe someone won’t believe it, but she kept her promise a few days later, when the New Year’s bustle had calmed down a little.

When was the next date between Masha and Seryozhka... The first phrase the guy said was: “if you lose something dear, you will definitely find something better!”

Seryozha helped Masha forget the man who brought her millions of suffering. They immediately understood that they loved each other, but were afraid to admit it to themselves...

Continuation. . .

Leah, Alyosha and Natasha

Part 1. Alyosha.

On the eighth day of the hike, I realized that I couldn’t go any further. Despite all the guys' worries, the flu did its dirty work. The all-terrain vehicle tractor, for which I was the mechanic-driver, and at the same time performing all other mechanical duties, remained mothballed at the base until spring.

There was no one to carry me in their arms; everyone was already overloaded. Someone remembered that there should be a stationary weather station about 15 kilometers away from our path.

I resolutely refused to be accompanied, got on my skis, threw a backpack over my shoulders and set off under the doubtful glances of my friends.

Trouble always comes unexpectedly: the snow beneath me suddenly settled and I found myself waist-deep in water. There was an opening under the snow, and I managed to fall into it. Having lost my skis, I had difficulty getting out onto the snow.

I don’t remember how I made it the rest of the way. I only remember that at the door of the weather station I tried to get up, but my legs couldn’t hold me and I collapsed on the porch. I woke up quickly. The nimble girls' hands had already undressed me and rubbed me with alcohol. After 10 minutes, I was lying under two blankets and drinking strong tea and half-and-half alcohol.

I woke up late the next day. It was light outside the window. “Girls,” I called.

A young blonde came out of the room, dressed in a light gray jersey suit that showed off her superbly developed curves.

Please tell me where I can see the station chief and do you know that a radiogram was sent to the party that I arrived safely?

The blonde smiled and replied that the radiogram had been transmitted, and I saw the head of the station, Natalya Vasilievna Kuznetsova, in front of me. “And this,” she pointed to the second girl standing in the doorway, is my deputy, Liya Vladimirovna Volina. And we already know about you. You are a mechanical engineer of the geological expedition Alexey Snezhin - she paused for a moment.

Ivanovich - I suggested.

This is how I met two... I just don’t know the word. In general, with people whose fate became my fate.

Part 2. Natasha.

Leah and I have been friends since childhood. We lived in the same house, studied at the same institute and were inseparable until the 4th year. Together at dances, together at lectures, together preparing for exams. At the end of the 4th year, I married graduate student Volodya, who taught our practical lessons. After that, Leah and I began to meet less often. I was busy organizing my life, enjoying new sensations and feelings of physical intimacy with a man. I loved Volodya. We were young, healthy, and, after a short natural period of awakening of feelings (before marriage, I was a girl), I selflessly surrendered to the passion for love pleasures that had awakened in me. Volodya was more experienced than me. Although he never told me this, I guessed that he had women before me. But his past didn’t bother me. I enjoyed the present. Before marriage, I was completely unaware of the intimate side of family life, that is, theoretically I knew what was happening between a husband and wife in bed, and sometimes my girlfriends, for the sake of boasting, told individual episodes from their adventures, but I didn’t really believe them, I thought they were deliberately making it up to embellish the factual prose of sexual relations. I did a little sports, was healthy, was always in the midst of friends and comrades, and felt the demands of gender weakly. Only in the last six months before marriage, when our relationship with Volodya moved from kisses to more intimate ones, at night I felt longing and mentally tried to imagine how it would all be. At one time I was tormented by the question of what I would call mine... and him... in front of him, and in what words he would tell me about his desire... me. In reality, everything turned out to be much simpler and at first we did not need words to indicate this. The feeling of intense curiosity after the first time was replaced by a feeling of slight disappointment. I was a little hurt, ashamed, and everything happened so quickly that I didn’t have time to fully feel it all. When Volodya felt my blood on his fingers, he kissed me, said all sorts of stupid words to me, but that night he wisely refused once again to try to exercise his conjugal rights.

For three or four weeks I didn’t feel much pleasure, thinking that it was just the way it should be. I made my nest, made various purchases, was proud of my position as a married woman among my fellow students and was generally pleased family life. But gradually I began to enjoy the visit of my “friend” to my “house”. “Friend of the house”, that’s what we began to call it, although for the sake of acuity, sometimes we called things by their proper names, but that came later and Volodya taught me almost all the words. He really liked it when I asked directly what I wanted. At first I just lay under Volodya, but gradually, with his help, I mastered other positions. I especially liked lying with my back on the high cushion of the sofa. Volodya stood on the floor in front of me and held my legs, giving them different positions. At some moments I felt a little pain from the deep immersion of his head in me... but it was a sweet pain, I endured it and even sometimes deliberately did so in order to feel it.

True, at that time I did not understand some of Volodya’s desires and avoided them. So, I was ashamed to do this in the light and generally appear naked in front of Volodya in the light. I also didn’t understand the desire that arose in him to kiss mine... I always covered her up, putting my hands under the kiss. Now, having become somewhat more experienced in these matters, I understand why Volodya remained dissatisfied. He was obviously counting on reciprocal affection, but I didn’t understand this, and he didn’t dare ask for it. I was brought up in this regard with very strict rules and could not even imagine at that time that between a man and a woman there could be any other ways of satisfying passion, other than the usual introduction of a “friend” into the “house”. In general, she was a naive fool, which life very quickly enlightened me about. I also didn’t understand Volodya’s desire to take self-photos during our “visits.” He brought photographs of similar subjects several times, but I did not believe that what was depicted in the photographs could give pleasure and enjoyment to a man or woman. I thought that this was being deliberately posed to arouse the feelings of those who would look at it. Volodya even became interested in collecting such cards and photographs. He sometimes looked at them, after which he became very excited and tried to quickly get me into bed. At that time, I was more satisfied with feeling my husband in my ..... than considering how others do it. Obviously, Volodya completely satisfied me at that time as a woman. I was “full” and when I had a desire to feel his movement within me..., he always met halfway and even in excess. We didn’t want to have children before I graduated from college and therefore sometimes protected ourselves with an elastic band, and sometimes when Volodya and I got tired of it, we simply interrupted everything at the very last second, so that the seed remained on the sheets or on my thighs and stomach. Volodya wiped it with his or my panties and they were quite often stained. When Volodya was interrupted prematurely, I always felt sorry for him, because he did not experience pleasure to the end. And at that time I didn’t know how to help him. But it was quite simple, I only found out later.

After passing the state exams, I had to go to pre-graduation practice. Having said goodbye warmly to Volodya, at that time he was just about to leave somewhere, I went to the station, where the head of the group was supposed to meet us with tickets. To our great joy, he only got the tickets the next day, and the whole group of us went home. Knowing that Volodya was not at home, I opened the door with my key and entered the corridor. Volodya and I had an isolated one-room apartment. I put my suitcase down and started taking off my coat, and suddenly I heard Volodya’s voice. Wanting to please him that fate had given us the opportunity to spend another day together, I quickly entered the room and...

Real life love stories that will not only make you think, but will warm your heart and even make you smile.

1. Today my 75-year-old grandfather, who has been blind for 15 years due to cataracts, told me: “Your grandmother is the most beautiful woman on earth, isn’t she?” I thought for a second and said: “Yes, she is exactly like that. You probably really miss this beauty, now that you don’t see it.” “Darling,” my grandfather answered me. - I see her every day. To be honest, I see her much more clearly now than when we were young.”
2. Today I married my daughter. Ten years ago, I rescued a 14-year-old boy from a minivan that was engulfed in flames after a serious accident. The doctors' verdict was clear - he would never be able to walk. My daughter visited him several times with me in the hospital. Then she started going there without me. And today I saw how, contrary to all predictions and smiling widely, he put the ring on my daughter’s finger - standing firmly on both feet.
3. Today, as I approached the door of my store at 7 o’clock in the morning (I’m a florist), I saw a soldier in uniform waiting outside. As it turned out, he was on his way to the airport, from where he was supposed to fly to Afghanistan for the whole year. He said: "I usually bring my wife a beautiful bouquet of flowers every Friday and I don't want to let her down just because I'll be away from her." After these words, he ordered 52 bouquets of flowers from me and asked me to deliver them every Friday evening to his wife’s office until he returned. I gave him a 50% discount on everything - such love filled my whole day with light.
4. Today I told my 18 year old grandson that for all my school years I never got to the school prom because no one ever invited me there. And imagine - this evening, dressed in a tuxedo, he rang my doorbell and invited me to the school ball as his partner.
5. When she woke up from her 18 month coma today, she kissed me and said, “Thank you for staying with me, for telling me these beautiful stories, and for always believing in me... And yes, I will marry you.”
6. Today, while passing through the park, I decided to have a snack on a bench. And as soon as I unwrapped my sandwich, the car of an elderly couple stopped under an oak tree nearby. They rolled down the windows and turned on jazz music on the record player. Then the man got out of the car, opened the door and offered his hand to the woman, and after that they slowly danced under that same oak tree for half an hour.
7. Today I performed surgery on a little girl. She needed blood of the first group. We didn't have her, but her twin brother also had the first group. I explained to him that this was a matter of life and death. He thought for a moment, and then said goodbye to his parents and offered his hand. I didn’t understand why he did this until after we took his blood, he asked, “When will I die?” He thought he was really sacrificing his life for his sister. Luckily, they will both be okay now.
8. Today, my father has become the best father I could ever dream of. He loving husband my mom (and always makes her laugh), he came to every Soccer game, which I've been involved in since I was five years old (I'm now 17), and he provides for our entire family by working as a construction foreman. This morning, when I was looking through my dad's toolbox for pliers, I found a dirty piece of paper folded at the bottom. It turned out to be a page torn from my father's old diary, and it bore the date a month before I was born. It read: “I am nineteen years old, an alcoholic, a college dropout, an unsuccessful suicide, a victim of childhood abuse and a former car thief. And in next month To all this, a “young father” will also be added. But I swear, I will do everything to make sure everything is fine for my baby. I will become for her the kind of father that I myself have never had.” And... I don’t know how, but he succeeded.
9. Today my 8 year old son hugged me and said, “You are the best mom in the whole world.” I smiled and asked him: “How do you know this? You haven’t seen all the mothers of the whole world.” My son, in response to this, hugged me even tighter and said: “And you are my world.”
10. Today I saw an elderly patient with Alzheimer's disease. He barely remembers given name and often forgets where he is and what he said just a few minutes ago. But by some miracle (and I think this miracle is called love), every time his wife comes to visit him for a few minutes, he remembers who she is and greets her with “Hello, my beautiful Kate.”
11. My 21 year old Labrador can barely stand up, can't see or hear much, and doesn't even have the energy to bark. But still, when I enter the room, she happily wags her tail.
12. Today is the 10th anniversary of our marriage. My husband and I were recently laid off from our jobs, and so we agreed not to spend money on gifts for each other. When I woke up this morning, my husband was already up. I walked downstairs and saw that our entire house was lovingly decorated with beautiful wild flowers. I counted more than 400 of them - and he really didn't spend a cent on them.
13. Today I met up with a guy I dated in high school and whom I never expected to meet again. He showed me a photo of the two of us, which he kept in the lining of his helmet for those 8 years while he served in the army far from me.
14. Both my 88-year-old grandmother and her 17-year-old cat have long since gone blind. Grandma got herself a guide dog to help her move around the house, which is generally normal. But lately he has started leading the cat around the house too! When she meows, he comes over and rubs against her, then leads her to her bowl, sandbox, or wherever she sleeps.
15. Today I was horrified to see through the kitchen window as my 2-year-old daughter slipped and fell into our pool. But before I could reach her, our retriever Rex jumped after her and pulled her by the collar of her shirt to where it was shallow and she was able to stand up.
16. My older brother has already donated bone marrow to me 15 times to help me fight cancer. He talks directly to my doctor about it and I don't even know when he does it. And today the doctor told me that it seems that the treatment is starting to help. "We're seeing sustained remission," he said.
17. Today I was driving home with my grandfather when he suddenly turned around and said, “I forgot to buy flowers for your grandmother. Now let's go to the corner store and I'll buy her a bouquet. I quickly". “Is today some special day?” I asked him. “No, I don’t think so,” my grandfather answered. “Every day is special in some way. And your grandmother loves flowers. They make her smile."
18. Today I was rereading the suicide note I wrote on September 2, 1996, two minutes before my girlfriend knocked on my door and said, “I'm pregnant.” Suddenly I felt that I wanted to live again. Today she is my beloved wife. And my daughter, who is already 15 years old, has two younger brothers. From time to time I reread my suicide note to remind myself how grateful I am to have a second chance to live and love.
19. Today, like every day since I returned from the hospital two months ago with burn scars on my face (I spent almost a month there after the fire that burned down our house), I found a red note taped to it on my locker. rose. I still don’t know what it takes to come to school early every day and leave me these roses. I even tried a couple of times to come early myself and catch this man - but every time I found the rose already there.
20. Today 10 years have passed since my father's death. When I was little, he often hummed a short tune to me when I went to bed. When I was 18 and he was lying in a hospital room, fighting cancer, I was already humming that same melody to him. I have never heard it since then, until today in bed with my fiancé we looked at each other and he started humming it to himself. It turned out that his mother also sang it to him as a child.
21. Today, a woman who lost her vocal cords due to cancer enrolled in my sign language class. Her husband, four children, two sisters, brother, mother, father, and fourteen of her best friends signed up with me to be able to communicate with her even though she had lost her voice.
22. My 11-year-old son speaks ASL fluently because his friend Josh, with whom he grew up since infancy, is deaf. It makes me so happy to see their friendship blossom every year.
23. Due to Alzheimer's disease and senile dementia, my grandfather no longer always recognizes his wife in the morning. A year ago, when it first started, she was very worried about it, but now she understands what is happening to him and helps him as much as she can. She even plays with him every morning, trying to get him to propose to her again before breakfast. And every time she succeeds.
24. Today my father died of natural causes at the age of 92. I found his body in a chair in his room. On his hip lay three framed 8 x 10 photographs - these were photographs of my mother who died 10 years ago. She was the love of his life, and most likely, feeling his death approaching, he wanted to see her again.
25. I am the proud mother of a 17 year old blind boy. Although my son was born blind, this did not stop him from becoming an excellent student, an excellent guitarist (the first album of his band has already exceeded 25,000 downloads online) and a great guy for his girlfriend Valerie. Today his little sister asked him what attracted him to Valerie and he replied, “Everything. She's beautiful."
26. Today I served an elderly couple in a restaurant. The way they looked at each other... it was immediately clear that they loved each other. My husband mentioned that they were celebrating their anniversary today. I smiled and said: “Let me guess. You have been together for many decades.” They laughed and the wife said, “Actually, no. Today is our fifth anniversary. We both outlived our other halves, but fate gave us another chance to love and be loved.”
27. Today my father found my sister chained to the barn wall. She was kidnapped near Mexico City almost 5 months ago. A week later the police stopped active search. Mom and I came to terms with the loss and arranged a funeral. Our family and her friends came to them - everyone except my father. All this time he, without ceasing, searched for her. He said he loved her too much to give up. And now she’s home again because he didn’t let them go then.
28. There are two high school boys at my school who are openly in love with each other. In the last two years, they had to endure a lot of insults, but they continued to walk hand in hand. And, despite threats and frequent break-ins of their school lockers, they came to the school prom today in identical suits. And they danced together, smiling from ear to ear, in spite of all the envious people.
29. Today my sister and I were in a car accident. At school, my sister is Miss Popularity herself. She knows everyone, and everyone knows her. Well, I’m a bit of an introvert - I always talk to the same 2 girls. My sister immediately posted on Facebook about the accident. And while all her friends left comments and expressed sympathy, two of my friends showed up at the scene of the accident even before the ambulance arrived there.
30. Today my fiancé returned from an overseas military assignment. But just yesterday he was just my boyfriend... well, that is, that’s what I thought. Almost a year ago, he sent me a package that he asked not to open until he returned home in two weeks - but then his business trip was extended by almost 11 months. Today, when he finally returned home, he asked me to open that same package, and when I found a beautiful ring inside, he knelt in front of me and proposed to me.
31. Today, for the first time in months, my 12-year-old son Sean and I stopped by the nursing home on our way home. I usually go there alone to visit my mother, who has Alzheimer's disease. As we walked into the hallway, the nurse said, “Hi, Sean,” and let us inside. I asked my son: “How does she know your name?” “Oh, yes, I often pop in here after school to visit my grandmother,” he answered. And I had no idea about it.
32. Today I found in our papers my mother’s old diary, which she kept in high school. It contained a list of qualities she hoped to someday find in her boyfriend. This list is an almost exact description of my father, but my mother only met him when she was 27.
33. Today at school I spent chemical experiment with one of the most beautiful (and popular) girls in the entire school. And although I had never worked up the courage to even talk to her before, she turned out to be very kind and sweet. We spent time in the laboratory talking, joking, and in the end we still got straight A's (yes, she turned out to be smart too). After that, little by little we started communicating. Last week, when I found out that she had not yet chosen who to go to the school prom with, I wanted to ask her if she would go there with me, but again I didn’t have the courage. And today, when I was sitting in the school cafe, she herself came up to me and asked if I would like to go there with her. I agreed, and she kissed me on the cheek and whispered: “Yes”!
34. Today, on our 10th anniversary, my wife gave me a suicide note that she wrote when she was 22, the very day we met. And she said: “All these years I really didn’t want you to know how stupid and impulsive I was then. But even though you didn’t know it before... you saved me. Thank you for everything".
35. My grandfather always kept on his nightstand an old, faded photograph from the 60s of him and my grandmother laughing happily at a party. My grandmother died of cancer when I was 7 years old. Today I looked into his house and my grandfather saw me looking at this photograph. He came up to me, hugged me and said: “Remember, just because nothing lasts forever doesn’t mean it’s not worth it.”
36. Today I tried to explain to my two daughters, ages 4 and 6, that we would have to move from our four-bedroom house to an apartment with just two until I found a new well-paying job. The daughters looked at each other for a moment, and then the youngest asked: “Are we all going to move there together?” “Yes,” I replied. “Well, it's all right then,” she said.
37. Today on the plane I met the most beautiful woman that I've ever seen. Realizing that after landing we might not see each other again, I told her how beautiful she was. She smiled charmingly at me and said: “No one has said that to me for 10 years.” It turned out that we were both in our early thirties, unmarried, neither had children, and lived literally 5 miles from each other. And next Sunday, after we get home, we have a date.
38. I am the mother of 2 children and grandmother of 4 grandchildren. At the age of 17 I became pregnant with twins. When my boyfriend and friends found out that I was not going to have an abortion, they all turned their backs on me. But I didn’t give up, didn’t drop out of school, got a job, graduated from college, and there I met a guy who has loved my children like his own for 50 years.
39. Today, on my 29th birthday, I returned home from my 4th and final military deployment to distant lands. The little girl who lives next door to my parents (who, to be honest, is not little anymore - she's 22) met me at the airport with a beautiful long rose, a bottle of my favorite vodka, and then asked me out on a date.
40. Today my daughter agreed to marry her boyfriend. He is 3 years older than her. They started dating when she was 14 and he was 17. I really didn’t like this age difference then. When he turned 18 a week before she turned 15, my husband insisted they end the relationship. They remained friends, but dated other people. But now that she's 24 and he's 27... I've never seen a couple so in love with each other.
41. When I found out today that my mother came down with the flu, I stopped at the supermarket to buy her some ready-made soup. I ran into my father there, whose cart contained 5 cans of soup, nasal spray, tissues, tampons, 4 DVDs of romantic comedies and a bouquet of flowers. It made me stop and really think about everything.
42. Today I was sitting on the hotel balcony and saw a couple in love walking along the beach. It was clear from the way they moved that they were crazy about each other. When they came closer, I was surprised to see that they were my parents. No one would say that 8 years ago they almost got divorced.
43. I'm only 17, but my boyfriend, Jake, and I have been dating for 3 years. Yesterday we spent the first night together. No, we didn’t do “this” either before or this night. Instead, we baked cookies, watched two comedies, laughed, played Xbox, and fell asleep holding each other. Despite my parents' concerns, he turned out to be a true gentleman and the best guy.
44. Today, when I tapped my wheelchair and told my husband, “You know, you are the only reason I would like to be free of this squalor,” he kissed my forehead and replied, “Honey, I don’t even notice him.”
45. Today my grandparents, who were already over ninety and who had lived together for 72 years, both died in their sleep, not having lived without each other for an hour.
46. Today my father came to my house for the first time in six months since I told him that I was gay. When I opened the doors, he hugged me with tears in his eyes and said, “I'm sorry, Jason. I love you".
47. Today my 6 year old autistic sister said her first word - my name.
48. Today, 15 years after my grandfather's death, my 72-year-old grandmother is getting married again. I am 17 years old, and in my entire life I have never seen her so happy. How nice it was to see two people so in love with each other, despite their age. And now I know it's never too late.
49. Today in a jazz club in San Francisco I saw two people madly passionate about each other. The woman was a dwarf, and the man was two meters tall. After a few cocktails they went out onto the dance floor. To slow dance with her, the man knelt down - and they danced all night.
50. This morning I was woken up by my daughter calling my name. I was sleeping in a chair in her hospital room, and when I opened my eyes, I saw her beautiful smile. She was in a coma for 98 days.
51. On this day almost exactly 10 years ago, I stopped at an intersection and another car rear-ended me. Her driver was a University of Florida student - like me. He looked very guilty and constantly apologized. While we were waiting for the police and the tow truck, we started talking and soon we were laughing uncontrollably at each other’s jokes. As a result, we exchanged numbers, and the rest, as they say, is history. We recently celebrated our 8th anniversary.
52. Today, when I was working in a cafe, two gay men walked in holding hands. As one might expect, a fair portion of the visitors began to openly stare at them. And then a little girl sitting at a table not far from me asked her mother why these two men were holding hands. Mom replied: “Because they love each other.”
53. Today, after 2 years of living apart, my ex-wife and I finally settled our differences and decided to meet for dinner. We chatted and laughed for 4 hours on end. And before leaving, she gave me a large, plump envelope. It contained 20 love messages that she wrote over these two years. The envelope was signed “Letters I Didn’t Send Because I Was Stubborn.”
54. Today I had an accident that left a deep abrasion on my forehead. The doctor wrapped a bandage around my head and told me not to take it off for a week - although I didn’t like it at all. Two minutes ago, my little brother came into my room - and his head was also wrapped in a bandage! Mom said he didn't want me to feel unhappy.
55. Today, after a long illness, my mother died of cancer. My best friend, who lives 2000 miles away from me, called on the phone to at least somehow console me. “What would you do if I showed up at your house now and hugged you tightly?” - he asked me. “Well, I would definitely smile,” I answered. And then he rang my doorbell.
56. Today, as my 91-year-old grandfather (military doctor, medal bearer and successful businessman) lay in his hospital bed, I asked him what he considered his greatest achievement. He turned to my grandmother, took her hand and said: “That I grew old with her.”
57. When I saw my 75-year-old grandparents today acting like 14-year-olds in love and laughing at each other's stupid jokes, I realized that I had caught a brief glimpse of what true love is. I hope someday I will be able to find her.
58. On this day exactly 20 years ago, I risked my life to save a woman who was being carried away fast current Colorado River. That's how I met my wife - the love of my life.
59. Today, on our 50th wedding anniversary, she smiled at me and said, “I wish I had met you sooner.”
60. Today my blind friend told me at length and colorfully how beautiful his new girlfriend is.

Have you heard the tale of the Crane and the Heron? We can say that this story was copied from us. When one wanted, the other refused, and vice versa...

Real life story

“Okay, see you tomorrow,” I said into the phone to end the conversation, which lasted more than two hours.

One would think that we are talking about a meeting. Moreover, in a place well known to both of us. But that was not the case. We were just agreeing on... the next call. And everything looked exactly the same for several months. Then I called Polina for the first time in the last four years. And I pretended that I was just calling to see how she was doing, but in reality I wanted to renew the relationship.

I met her shortly before graduating from school. We were both in relationships at the time, but there was a real spark between us. However, only a month after we met, we separated from our partners. However, we were in no hurry to get closer. Because on the one hand we were attracted to something in each other, but on the other hand, something constantly got in the way. It was as if we were afraid that our relationship would be dangerous. Eventually, after a year of mutual exploration of each other, we became a couple. And if before that time our relationship developed very slowly, then since we got together everything has started to spin at a very fast pace. A period of strong mutual attraction and dizzying emotions began. We felt like we couldn't exist without each other. And then... we broke up.

Without any clarification. Simply, one fine day we did not agree on the next meeting. And then neither of us called the other for a week, expecting this action from the other side. At some point I even wanted to do this... But then I was young and green, and did not think of doing this - I just took offense at Polina for the fact that she so easily abandoned our reverent relationship. So I decided that it was not worth imposing on her. I knew that I was thinking and acting stupidly. But then I could not calmly analyze what happened. Only after some time did I begin to really understand the situation. Gradually I realized the stupidity of my action.

I think we both felt like we were a good fit for each other and just started to fear what might happen next to our “great love.” We were very young, we wanted to gain a lot of experience in love affairs, and most importantly, we felt unprepared for a serious, stable relationship. Most likely, we both wanted to “freeze” our love for several years, and “unfreeze” it one day, at one fine moment, when we feel that we are ripe for it. But, unfortunately, it didn’t work out that way. After breaking up, we didn’t completely lose touch - we had many mutual friends, we went to the same places. So from time to time we bumped into each other, and these were not the best moments.

I don’t know why, but each of us considered it our duty to send the other a caustic, sarcastic remark, as if accusing us of what had happened. I even decided to do something about it and offered to meet to discuss “complaints and grievances.” Polina agreed, but... did not come to the appointed place. And when we met by chance, two months later, she began to stupidly explain why she then made me stand pointlessly in the wind, and then did not even call. Then she again asked me for a meeting, but again she did not show up.

The beginning of a new life...

From then on, I began to consciously avoid places where I could accidentally meet her. So we haven't seen each other for several years. I heard some rumors about Polina - I heard that she was dating someone, that she left the country for a year, but then returned and started living with her parents again. I tried not to pay attention to this information and live own life. I had two novels that seemed quite serious, but in the end nothing came of them. And then I thought: I’ll talk to Polina. I couldn’t imagine what went through my head then! Although no, I know. I missed her... I really, really missed her...

She was surprised by my phone call, but also delighted. We talked then for several hours. Exactly the same the next day. And the next one. It's hard to say what we discussed for so long. In general, everything is about a little and a little about everything. There was only one topic we tried to avoid. This topic was ourselves...

It looked as if, despite the years that had passed, we were afraid to be honest. However, one fine day Polina said:

– Listen, maybe we can finally decide on something?

“No, thank you,” I answered immediately. “I don’t want to disappoint you again.”

There was silence on the line.

“If you are afraid that I will not come, then you can come to me,” she finally said.

“Yeah, and you’ll tell your parents to kick me out,” I snorted.

- Rostik, stop it! — Polina began to get nervous. “Everything was so good, and you’re ruining everything again.”

- Again! – I was seriously indignant. - Or maybe you can tell me what I did?

– Most likely something you can’t do. You won't call me for several months.

“But you will call me every day,” I imitated her voice.

– Don’t turn things upside down! – Polina shouted, and I sighed heavily.

“I don’t want to be left with nothing again.” If you want to see me, then come to me yourself,” I told her. – I’ll wait for you in the evening at eight o’clock. I hope you come...

“Whatever,” Polina hung up.

New circumstances...

For the first time since we started calling each other, we had to say goodbye in anger. And most importantly, now I had no idea whether she would call me again or come to me? Polina’s words could be interpreted as either an agreement to come or a refusal. However, I was waiting for her. I cleaned my studio apartment, which I didn’t do very often. I cooked dinner, bought wine and flowers. And he finished reading the story: "". Every minute of waiting made me even more nervous. I even wanted to give up my rude behavior and intransigence regarding the meeting.

At fifteen minutes past eight I began to wonder whether I should go to Polina? I didn’t go only because she could have come to me at any moment and we would have missed each other. At nine o'clock I gave up hope. I angrily started dialing her number to tell her everything I thought about her. But he didn’t finish the job and pressed “End”. Then I wanted to call again, but I thought to myself that she might view this call as a sign of my weakness. I didn’t want Polina to know how worried I was about her not coming, and how painfully her indifference hurt me. I decided to spare her such pleasure.

I went to bed only at 12 o’clock at night, but I couldn’t sleep for a long time because I kept thinking about this situation. On average, I changed my point of view every five minutes. At first I thought that only I was to blame, because if I had not been stubborn like a donkey and came to her, then our relationship would have improved and we would have been happy. After a while, I began to reproach myself for such naive thoughts. After all, she would have kicked me out anyway! And the more I thought that way, the more I believed it. When I was almost asleep... the intercom rang.

At first I thought it was some kind of mistake or a joke. But the intercom kept ringing persistently. Then I had to stand up and answer:

- Two o'clock in the morning! – he barked angrily into the phone.

I don't even have to say how surprised I was. And how! With a trembling hand, I pressed the button to open the door to the entrance. What will be next?

After a long two minutes I heard the call. He opened the door... and saw Polina sitting in wheelchair accompanied by two orderlies. She had a cast on her right leg and right arm. Before I could ask what happened, one of the men said:

“The girl discharged herself of her own free will and insisted that we bring her here.” Her entire future life apparently depends on this.

I didn't ask anything else. The orderlies helped Polina sit on the large sofa in the living room and quickly left. I sat down opposite her and looked at her in surprise for a whole minute.

There was complete silence in the room.

“I’m glad you came,” I said, and Polina smiled.

“I always wanted to come,” she answered. – Do you remember the first time we agreed to meet, but I didn’t show up? Then my grandmother died. The second time my dad had a heart attack. It seems incredible, but it's still true. As if someone didn't want us...

“But now, I see, you didn’t pay attention to the obstacles,” I smiled.

“It happened a week ago,” Polina pointed to the plaster. – Slipped on the icy sidewalk. I thought we'd meet when I got better... but I thought I just needed to make a little effort. I was worried about you...
I didn't answer and just kissed her.

In the third year, studying is difficult, many problems have accumulated due to absenteeism. I tell my parents that everything is great, they pay for my education, and I know their reaction in advance.

I live in a hostel and study in the capital. Recently, he is local, lives separately from his parents, has his own apartment. Studying doesn’t bring me any pleasure, I’m looking for a job, most likely I’ll quit university, especially since future profession I don’t like it (I study at a pedagogical school at the urgent request of my parents).

I quarreled with my male friend. We've known each other for ages. Both are adults. The children have grown up. Free. And I waited for him for a very, very long time. He is very near and dear to me, but the relationship is not working out. Maybe it's just me. Perhaps he has problems, since about a year ago he divorced his wife and, in my opinion, this made him tougher or something. Sometimes it seems to me that he is acting out some of his past problems on me. There is only his truth, only his opinion and it is the only true one. He is afraid to trust, he is not completely sincere. Touchy. The relationship is unstable. Here we were lovers, here we are just friends, then again lovers. Now we're friends again. But friendship is somehow not the same: we don’t go fishing like before, we don’t ride bicycles, we don’t watch movies together. If we meet, it’s at his house and my role is to wash, iron, cook something and leave. I don't understand what kind of relationship this is.

Seven years ago, I fell very much in love with a boy from a parallel class. And somehow miraculously it happened that we started a relationship. He wrote it himself, invited us to go for a walk, and we realized that we liked each other.

At first everything was great, I was very happy, this man was my whole world (he was adolescence, we were 14-15 years old, it was a child’s naive love, now I realize it). I loved him very much. But a great tragedy happened for me, which left an imprint for the rest of my life. I can’t tell you this, but he was a big tyrant in the relationship, forcing me to do what I didn’t want. But I did it because I was afraid of losing him, I was ready to do anything if only he was with me. After some time, he left me, my pain was incredible, I had to do everything he said, but still said that he didn’t love me, all this time he supposedly loved someone else, but he started communicating with me and became interested in me too. Then I believed it, it was very painful. We still walked in the same company. He met new girl, I was constantly with them, I saw them. But he always, even so, forced me to do bad things, I did it in this way, thinking that I was somehow keeping him close.

I'm already approaching 30, huh. They didn’t make serious plans for me, or sometimes they deceived me at first, and after a couple of months they said that there was no love. All the relationships that I had (and there were few of them) lasted only a couple of months, there were exceptions for a year, but the relationships were very strained and difficult. They didn’t appreciate me at all, they saw each other once a week. Everything always followed the same scenario: the guy, over time, practically stopped maintaining a conversation through correspondence, calling, and rarely agreed to meet. Ignoration ensued.

I really miss ordinary male attention. No, not gifts or any actions, but ordinary warmth, affection, kind words. When we first started living together with my husband, he at least sometimes hugged me, I felt closeness, unity of souls. But eight years later everything changed, it became somehow different. I try to cuddle up to him, but he moves away, and it is this closeness that I miss. I ask: “Why are you moving away from me?” He says: “I’m tired, I’m hot, I want to sleep.”

Men, think about it, because sometimes with your behavior and your actions you push your wives to cheat. If your wife cheated on you, look for the problem first of all in yourself. The biggest reason is your attitude towards your wives. And if you deprive her of your attention, she will find this attention on the side.

I believe that a holiday romance is as beneficial for a person as morning exercises. Twice a year I go on vacation to the sea. I usually go on vacation at the beginning of June. I visit resorts in order to quickly change the environment and communicate with new people. Naturally, every vacation is accompanied by a vibrant holiday romance.

I won't say if I'm married, it doesn't matter. And I don't look at Family status a guy who will look after me - this is also absolutely not important. And I'm not interested in his status. I think that more men than women will support me, since women, to a large extent, are owners.

When I married my husband, I was sure that the marriage would meet all expectations. Vlad is a jack of all trades, educated, with a sense of humor and so on. We have been married for 6 years, we have a wonderful daughter Vasilisa, whom we love with all my heart. Vlad works a lot, cannot sit idle, and is always looking for ways to get more if there is such an opportunity. After maternity leave, I also didn’t intend to sit at home, it’s boring for me, I want to be not only a wife and mother, but also good specialist in your business.

Without thinking for a long time, I returned to work, and we hired a nanny for my daughter. Without resorting to the help of an agency, I decided to choose the person to whom I could entrust my child. Of several candidates, I liked a neat girl, with higher education and having experience in the relevant field. Having agreed on time and fees, she began work at the beginning of the new week. There were no complaints, she coped with her duties remarkably well, and her husband also noted this. But for every problem solved, a new one comes. I noticed that my husband was cheating on me, and I understood this for very simple reasons.

I convinced myself a long time ago that my child was my husband’s. It all started when my husband and I decided to have a second child. More precisely, we wanted to smooth out the cracks in the relationship. Before that, we tried to revive our feelings, we went on vacation together, experimented with sex, went to a psychologist, nothing helped. There was such a chill between us that the frost ran through our skin. So it occurred to some of us that the baby would fix everything.

We started trying. A month, another, six months - it doesn’t work. Let's go to the doctors. Both are healthy, there shouldn't be any problems. My husband began to blame me for taking birth control pills. The scandals began to be hotter than ever. They couldn’t go to bed together, the disgust had reached such a degree. To fill my lonely evenings, I went to exhibitions, in the evenings I went either to an exhibition or to the cinema. It was at one of these outings that I met Nikolai. He's younger than me. Quiet, courteous, handsome. I almost immediately decided that I would sleep with him, because I was flattered by his attention and enthusiasm. I was flattered by the attention of a charming man. What else does a woman who hasn’t felt loved for a long time need?
