inCan’t sleep cause my heart is light…my mind is content…my spirit soothed. When was the last time this happened? It’s funny how you never know when someone will throw you a rope to tie a knot on the end of to hang on to. It’s crazy when these moments may happen…half the time I think the people don’t even realize they have thrown you this lifeline. Sometimes it comes in a few words of wisdom from a passing stranger, or a wink from an old friend, or maybe even a random Facebook posts…but tonight it came in the form of my brother! Not that he did anything in particular…but rather that he just was….him…my brother? It brought me back to me…to myself through the familiarity of him. And it was great!

inMaybe not average for the regular 15 year old but I spent my high school days planning our wedding and naming our babies! I wore a simple heart golden promise ring from the time I was 15 years old until I received a beautiful heart shaped engagement ring at 20 years old. We had baby pillows created and personalized with four different baby names…two girl name and two boy names, literally almost ten years before the first baby was born.

Are you staying for you or him? Why do you stay? Why do I stay? After infidelity, lies, verbal abuse…I stay. Why? I won’t give a weak girl answer like “I love him”…that I do. I do love him but that’s not why I stay. I stay because I understand. I am not the cause of this nor am I the blame for this. I stay because I understand that.

inSo for the next three years of high school, I spent doing teenage things like attending football games, homecoming, SATs, prom…etc…all the while planning my wedding, attending business dinners, discussing taxes during tax season. But the blend for me was natural, no different than anything else for me. Dating a man 10 years older wasn’t some dramatic catastrophe like you see on Dr. Phil. It just was was my life!!! It just happened like regular life to me. Easy…fun…stress free life of a teenager!

I fell in love at 15….with a 25 yr old. Most times, this would not work…but for us it did. He understood where I was in life. He added to my life rather than take away. He let me learn and experience life as a teen…wisely knowing all I still had to learn. With this freedom, I was able to grow and love freely. With this, he also quietly taught. I was living a grown up life at 15 with the freedom to also be a teen. It helped me grow into a strong independent young woman. So we dated for the next six years before we married!

It was easy for me to fall in love! Was it my age…was it my personality…not sure but all I know was that it was easy. Being in love is fun, easy, natural…like I was just meant to do it…to be in love. We never dated, broke up, dated again…we just enjoyed being in love. Not to say we never fought…we did…but we never questioned. It was our love and we didn’t go back on that. Again was this my age, was this our personality blend? Staying in love wasn’t difficult. It takes work to blend your life with someone. But at 15, my life was just starting…just molding…just beginning. So as I started, grew, molded…I did it with him. Molded with him, grew with him, started my life with him. It was easy to fall, be and stay in love for me!

Why does he cheat on me? It’s easy to think I am not pretty enough, not smart enough, not funny enough…but it’s not the case…I truly feel it’s not me…its him. Maybe he’s not smart enough, good looking enough, funny enough…within his own self, not in my eyes but in his own. If he doesn’t feel like he measures up…then it’s his own insecurities that makes him unfaithful. Doesn’t take the pain anyway any more or make the hurt any less. But the comfort in knowing it’s not because of my own faults or shortcomings but possibly his.
