Theory of Three Loves - Part 1
I met him in sixth grade. Our elementary schools were in neighboring cities and once you moved to sixth grade they merged into the same school. His childhood friend became my best friend and she introduced me to him. I was interested right away, but had always been shy. He was a little shy also, so we remained friends for all of sixth grade.

Who do you think you are? Stepping into a life so pure, changing perspective and expecting more. We were just friends who help each other grow, and now you live in my head wanting me to love you forever more—breaking me down from light to shadow, making me hate to love and the things that follow. Hurting in doses like a disease in transit, loving someone else now feels like roaches on the carpet.

There's was a certain amount of excitement amongst all of us the night I met him. I mean, after you spend all your Friday and Saturday nights with the same people for months, you feel eager when there is talk of a newcomer. For the guys, this mean initiation drinks, someone else to drive the trails or play in the pit with, etc. For me, it was another person to take care of and maybe flirt with some.

He came into my life very soon after I was raped. In my mind, a relationship was out of the question. My brain was still trying to process the trauma that I was quickly burying away. Self confidence had been tossed out the window and I hated my body. There were just so many reasons why I should not date, but he made them all disappear.

Something’s Gotta Give
A little over 3 years ago, I met my now husband. We were both working at an animal rescue; I was the kennel manager and he was my first trainee. We bonded very quickly over our love of the dogs we were caring for, and we quickly began spending a lot of time together. This was a second job for Ben, his full time job was working overnight at Home Depot. He spent almost every morning with me at the kennel, we ended up showing up to shifts together to help each other, went out to lunch afterwards, and then went he would go home to nap and take care of his dog. We started dating a couple months after meeting, and 5 months in, we got our first apartment together. He ended up leaving Home Depot to work for someone we met through the rescue, and things started to spiral a bit from there. His hours became sparse, and he was essentially on call 24/7. We didn’t even get to spend our first Valentine’s Day together because the woman he was working for needed him the entire day. Eventually, he had enough of being take advantage of and began working at Petco, hoping his old position of dog trainer would become available.
