The Emotional Story Of My Life

I want to write on one of my life experiences that has left an indelible scar in my memory. It is about how I lost my first love after 6 years of smooth and hitch-free relationship unaanounced.
All through my school days, I lived a highly reserved lifestyle. I never had any girl nor involved myself into any relationship. I mean boyfriend/girlfriend relationship. So I never knew what it means to fall in love though it was my personal decision lest I get distracted from my studies. When I graduated and went for Service in the year 2009, I happened to find a lady in my church who won/stole my heart. When I saw her, I never approached her on love/ relationship basis at first, but we were in the same singing group and she had such an angelic and melodious voice. Because of this I became more interested in her so we will always stay together to learn new songs in the Hymnal even after other members were gone. As time went by I developed lost for as my first love ever. Because the problem is that she is an orphan and a dropout of Junior Secondary school 3(Jss3). So I took it upon my self to sacrifice whatever it would take to train her and polish her academically. I got her enrolled back to school to start from JSS 3. She finished her Secondary and gained admission University under my sponsor. Before she could finish her Secondary education be I had already proposed to her and indicated my interest to spend the rest of my life as a wife. She consented to that but pleaded that I allow her time to be through with her tertiary education which I agreed. We covenanted to keep ourselves pure till we marry by not allowing sex to come between us. As my first love, I was really madly in love. In fact I was intoxicated by love. I did everything she requested. I did everything a husband would do to his lovely wife except for sex. We did and shared everything in common. We were always talking, thinking and talking about our future life as husband and wife. And within myself, I have drawn all conclusion that she is my missing rib, my better half and my soulmate. So I never entertained any second thought about her. I don't even find anything interesting or enticing in any other woman. I introduced b her to my parents, siblings, my friends and my church pastor as my wife to be. My siblings and parents also developed special love for her and calls her more often than I do while she is in school.

Towards the end of her University education that is is her 400l (4th and final year), things began to suddenly and eventually change.
Very sad enough , one black Monday in the year 2015, just a week after I returned from paying her a visit at her school I received heartbreaking envelope through school friend who resided in the same area with me. Lo and behold It was her Wedding card with another man. I was in a state of hallucination, I read this card ten times in one minutes to be sure of it's content and also thinking the content would change. But the content remained what it is. Indeed and of a truth it was actually a wedding card. The truth of the whole matter was that the relationship has been broken, all my efforts to e, resources be in building the relationship has become a wasted effort. My six years no of waiting and nurturing a relationship has became a vain thing. It was indeed a traumatic experience. I scarcely Survived the emotional trauma this unleashed on me if not for Divine intervention.

I couldn't help crying. I couldn't cry my pains, heartbreak and disappointment out. I mourned this relationship for three good years from 2015 to 2018.
The joy I felt on my wedding day far outweigh the pain and heartbreak I felt after this incidence.
This made me believe that:

Weeping may endure for a night but joy oceanic in nature comes in the morning.

Tough times never last but tough people do.

Conclusion

Life at time could be so unfair that the just, innocent and honest-hearted suffer the most. Nonetheless that shouldn't deter one from being kind-hearted to whomsoever that comes your. Every experience in life is a lesson.
