I have only(!) been married to my 3rd wife for 24 years, but, like Becky, I knew she was the one from the first time I saw her picture at the dating service.
Good story. It reminded me again how much I love my wife and would be lost without her.
The ravages of lymphoma and breast cancer and the resultant chemotherapy sessions and radical mastectomy have taken their toll on a once beautiful body, but I still see the her as the nineteen year old that I fell so hopelessly in love with forty-eight years ago. Thank for the story and for resurrecting some beautiful memories.
Having lost my wife to cancer in 2006, I felt all that the narrator felt, My eyes welled up with tears frequently while reading this beautiful tribute to a lost love. only those who have loved and lost could possibly write something as beautiful as this.
Thank you for reminding me of the way things were.
5/5
Any story that evokes emotion, and this one made me cry, is a good story. Thank you. My wife, the love of my life, died three years ago abd I thought I was over the loss of her, until I read this. Wow. For you to write this, you must have lost someone, too.
Freddie, Another great story. Can't say it's quite believable as a eulogy which the last line seems to imply, but a great story none the less. Good luck on the contest!
I would have given it FIVE STARS. We don't usually love and respect what we have until we either lose it or come close to losing it. Believe me, I know from first-hand experience.
but i find this scary, to find "the one" to be statistically improbable. i.e 1:3.5 billion approx/roughly.
my comment is from a person(me) who has never experienced the deep love that can be shared in a lifetime or fleeting moments, all he knows is the inverse of joy, happiness & trust. i believe he knows that he will never find that special person, so has resigned to the fact that may be he is the 1 person whose entire life is a testament to "MURPHY'S LAW"
Well written romance that serves as a reminder to us old farts....
I have been married to a wonderful woman for over 40 years and I try to show her that I love her everyday. Thanks for the great story.

Sometimes it only the good memories that we have left. As with time our memories fade and it all becomes grey!
Best Wishes!
