Love stories

There was once this guy who is very much in love with his girl. This romantic guy folded 1,000 pieces of paper cranes as a gift to his girl.

Although, at that time he was just a small fry in his company, his future didn't seem too bright, they were very happy together. Until one day, his girl told him she was going to Paris and will never come back. She also told him that she cannot visualize any future for the both of them, so they went their own ways there and then...

Heartbroken, the guy agreed. But when he regained his confidence, he worked hard day and night, slogging his body and mind just to make something out of himself.

Finally with all the hard work and the help of friends, this guy had set up his own company ..

You never fail until you stop trying. One rainy day, while this guy was driving, he saw an elderly couple sharing an umbrella in the rain walk ing to some destination. Even with the umbrella, they were still drenched. It didn't take him long to realize they were his girl's parents.

With a heart in getting back at them, he drove slowly beside the couple, wanting them to spot him in his luxury sedan. He wanted them to know that he wasn't the same any more; he had his own company, car,condo, etc. He made it! What he saw next confused him, the couple was
walking towards a cemetery, and so he got out of his car and followed...and he saw his girl, a photograph of her smiling sweetly as ever at him from her tombstone and he saw his paper cranes right beside her...

Her parents saw him. He asked them why this had happened. They explained, she did not leave for France at all. She was ill with cancer. She had believed that he will make it someday, but she did not want to be his obstacle... therefore she had chosen to leave him.
Just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to, doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have. She had wanted her parents to put his paper cranes beside her, because, if the day comes when fate brings him to her again...he can take some of those back with him...

Once you have loved, you will always love. For what's in your mind may escape but what's in your heart will remain forever.

The guy just wept...The worst way to miss someone is to be sitting right beside her knowing you can't have her, see her or be with her ever again.........hope you understand.

Find time to realize that there is one person who means so much to you, for you might wake up one morning losing that person who you thought meant nothing to you.
He met her on a party. She was so outstanding, many guys chasing after



her, while he so normal, nobody paid attention to him. At the end of the



party, he invited her to have coffee with him, she was surprised, but



due



to being polite, she promised. They sat in a nice coffee shop, he was



too



nervous to say anything, she felt uncomfortable, she thought, please,



let




me go home.... suddenly he asked the waiter. "would you please give me




some salt? I'd like to put it in my coffee."




Everybody stared at him, so strange! His face turned red, but still, he




put the salt in his coffee and drank it. She asked him curiously; why



you




have this hobby? He replied: "when I was a little boy, I was living near

the sea, I like playing in the sea, I could feel the taste of the sea,



just like the taste of the salty coffee. Now every time I have the salty




coffee, I always think of my childhood, think of my hometown, I miss my





hometown so much, I miss my parents who are still living there". While





saying that tears filled his eyes. She was deeply touched.






That's his true feeling, from the bottom of his heart. A man who can



tell





out his homesickness, he must be a man who loves home, cares about home,





has responsibility of home. Then she also started to speak, spoke about




her faraway hometown, her childhood, her family. That was a really nice




talk, also a beautiful beginning of their story.







They continued to date. She found that actually he was a man who meets



all





her demands; he had tolerance, was kind hearted, warm, careful. He was




such a good person but she almost missed him! Thanks to his salty



coffee!





Then the story was just like every beautiful love story , the princess





married to the prince, then they were living the happy life... And,



every




time she made coffee for him, she put some salt in the coffee e, as she






knew that's the way he liked it.









After 40 years, he passed away, left her a letter which said: "My



dearest,




please forgive me, forgive my whole life lie. This was the only lie I



said





to you---the salty coffee. Remember the first time we dated? I was so





nervous at that time, actually I wanted some sugar, but I said salt It



was





hard for me to change so I just went ahead.I never thought that could be






the start of our communication! I tried to tell you the truth many times






in my life, but I was too afraid to do that, as I have promised not to


lie






to you for anything..










Now I'm dying, I afraid of nothing so I tell you the truth: I don't like





the salty coffee, what a strange bad taste.. But I have had the salty




coffee for my whole life! Since I knew you, I never feel sorry for





anything I do for you. Having you with me is my biggest happiness for my




whole life. If I can live for the second time, still want to know you



and




have you for my whole life,even though I have to drink the salty coffee





again".









Her tears made the letter totally wet.Someday, someone asked her: what's





the taste of salty coffee?








It's sweet. She replied.









Love is not 2 forget but 2 forgive, not 2 c but 2 understand, not 2 hear




but 2 listen, not 2 let go but 2 HOLD ON !!!!






Don't ever leave the one you love for the one you like, because the one





you like will leave you for the one they love.








Find one, who calls you beautiful instead of hot.





Who calls you back when you hang up on him.




Who will stay awake just to watch you sleep.




Wait for the guy who kisses your forehead.





Who wants to show you off to the world when you are in your sweats.








Who holds your hand in front of his friends.







Wait for the one who is constantly reminding you of how much he







cares about you and how lucky he is to have you.







Wait for the one who turns to his friends and says, "...that's







her."
There was a BLIND GIRL.she HATED everyone except her BOYFRIEND.She always used to say "I WILL MARRY U WHEN I'LL ABLE TO SEE".Eventually someone DONATED eyes and she became able to see.

"JUST TAKE CARE OF MY EYES
As I sat there in English class, I stared at the girl next to me. She was my so-called "best friend". I stared at her long, silky hair. I wished she were mine, but she didn't notice me like Attachment that. And I knew it. After class she walked up to me and asked me for the notes she had missed the day before, and I handed them to her. She said "thanks" and gave me a kiss on the cheek. I wanted to tell her. I wanted her to know that I don't want to be just friends. I love her, but I'm just too shy. And I don't know why.

11th Grade
The phone rang. It was her on the other end. She was in tears, mumbling on and on about how her love had broke her heart. She asked me to come over because she didn't want to be alone, so I did. As I sat next to her on the sofa, I stared at her soft eyes, wishing she was mine. After 2 hours, a Drew Barrymore movie, and three bags of chips, she decided to go to sleep. She looked at me, said "thanks," and gave me a kiss on the cheek. I want to tell her. I want her to know that I don't want to be just friends. I love her, but I'm just too shy. And I don't know why.

12th Grade


The day before prom she walked to my locker. "My date is sick," she said. He's not going to go. Well, I didn't have a date and in 7th grade we made a promise that if neither of us had dates we would go together just as "best friends," so we did. Prom night after everything was over I was standing at her front door step. I stared at her. She smiled at me and stared at me with her crystal eyes. I want her to be mine, but she doesn't think of me like that, and I know it. Then she said, "I had the best time, thanks!" and gave me a kiss on the cheek. I want to tell her. I want her to know that I don't want to be just friends. I love her, but I'm just too shy. And I don't know why...

Graduation Day

A day passed. A week passed. A month passed. Before I could blink, it was graduation day. I watched as her perfect body floated like an angel up on stage to get her diploma. I wanted her to be mine, but she didn't notice me like that, and I knew it. Before everyone went home, she came to me in her smock and hat, and she cried as I hugged her. Then, she lifted her head from my shoulder and said, "You're my best friend, thanks!" and gave me a kiss on the cheek. I want to tell her. I want her to know that I don't want to be just friends. I love her, but I'm just too shy. And I don't know why…
A Few Years Later

Now, I sit in the pews of the church. She is getting married, now. I watched her say, "I do" and drive off to her new life, married to another man. I wanted her to be mine but she didn't see me like that, and I knew it. But before she drove away, she came to me and said, "You came!" She said, "thanks!" and kissed me on the cheek. I want to tell her. I want her to know that I don't want to be just friends. I love her, but I'm just too shy. And I don't know why...


Funeral
yrs passed, and I looked down at the coffin of the girl who used to be my best friend. "At the service they read a diary entry she had wrote in her high school years. This is what it read: I stare at him wishing he were mine. But he doesn't notice me like that, and I know it. I want to tell him. I want him to know that I don't want to be just friends. I love him, but I'm just too shy, and I don't know why. I wish he would tell me he loved me…
i wish I did too…
i thought to myself, and I cried.
