"Love Like You Will Never Get Hurt"

        Love        
     Like You    
       Will         
   Never Get     
        Hurt         

Those words are on a fridge magnet on my fridge. There are just those words written in black and on a gold background. Nothing else.

I bought it when I was on a trip to Freemantle, Australia, without my wife. I know she would either love it or hate it as the words may be true but its implication, if the second part of the sentence ever happen, it is something that she hates to think about.

Would you give yourself to love like this?

I was always amazed during my university years when I saw couple who can hang on nearly 5 to 6 years before they got married as they want to finish their study first before they need to confront their parents that they were a couple and wanted to get married. Some were just waiting and one couple I know broke off 3 months after graduation as the guy was delaying the marriage as they had been together for 6 years.

I would love to think that I did the same thing but not as early as some and I would say that there are no regrets on my part when I did it when I got married.

Still do...

And I got the fridge magnet to remind me of it

  1. Saying I love u is one thing, to feel it is another, and to say it with feeling is completely different.

    I know things will work out in the end, just try not to stress out and remember to take it easy!

  2. I like this sentiment. The one I wanted to marry had parents that forbade it. I guess life goes on.
