Yeah, seriously. Nothing is the end of the world when you're that young. Must've been looking for a wife since he was 5. Lol

It's high school, my man. Trust me, you will have plenty of time to reconnect with her again or maybe someone else who is even better. I didn't even really have my first real relationship until I was already 18-19. Had other girlfriends after that, but didn't meet my future wife until I was 28.

Congrats, my man. Yeah, no one knows what the future holds. One connection ends. Another will open up. Live life for yourself and don't make it your life goal to find a spouse asap.
Since we're talking about interesting histories of how we met our S/O's, my wife is my friend's sister. Lol. My buddy's sister moved back into town. I met her one night when my friend invited her to hang out with him. They're very close since they're barely under a year apart. She and I were clicking the more we hung out with each other. It took me a long time to actually pursue her because, you know, she was friend's sister and didn't want to make things awkward in any way. Well, in the end I received my friend's blessing. He knew that we liked each other. We met 16 years ago, got married 8 years later, and now have a 5 year old son together.
