One day, you will meet a person who loves you with so much kindness and respect that it’ll feel almost unfamiliar. They’ll look at you with eyes that see all of you—your flaws, your scars, your stories—and they’ll still choose you, wholeheartedly.

You’ll start to let go of the fear that’s held you back from trusting someone again. The hurt you carried, the doubts you whispered to yourself late at night, and the walls you built to protect your heart will begin to crumble, not because someone forced them down, but because love, in its purest form, doesn’t need to fight for space—it earns it through patience and understanding.

This person will show up in your life when you least expect it, reminding you that the right connection doesn’t drain you; it nourishes you. Their laughter will fill your quiet moments with joy, and their presence will feel like sunlight warming the coldest corners of your soul.

They might not have all the perfect words or grand gestures, but they will love with sincerity. Their tenderness, their willingness to stay when things aren’t easy, and their simple, quiet warmth will make you realize that true love isn’t complicated—it’s safe, it’s gentle, and it makes your heart feel at home.

One day, you’ll meet this kind of love. And when you do, everything will finally make sense.

Sharing with you ♥️
How I Met My Husband ♥️

My husband and I first crossed paths on a dating site on March 2023. It was one of those unexpected, serendipitous moments that neither of us saw coming but somehow felt destined. Even with the distance between us—me in Oslo for a cultural exchange in Norway and Kristian in Ålesund—we were immediately drawn to each other. What started as casual conversations soon turned into daily messages, shared laughter, and deep conversations that helped us form a strong bond over almost four months before we finally met in person.

Despite our busy schedules and the miles that separated us, we always made time for each other. Every message, every phone call, kept that spark alive. When we finally met face-to-face in Oslo on July 24, 2023, it felt like everything had aligned just for that moment. There was this undeniable comfort, this joy in being together, and it was clear that this was the beginning of something truly special.

For over three months, we continued dating, growing closer with each passing day. Kristian was such a gentleman, taking the time to court me, and eventually, on October 21, 2023, I said 'Yes' to being his girlfriend. It felt right, like we were building something meaningful together.

Then, on March 23, in a moment I'll never forget, Kristian proposed. It was everything I could have hoped for—a culmination of months filled with love, laughter, and shared dreams. It felt like the perfect start to the next chapter of our lives, and I couldn’t be more excited for what’s to come.
