I never read any such fairy tale as a kid or teenager! But I developed a passion for love even before reading anything. I had this amazing crush for a series of girls whom I loved, trusted, respected and valued. It happened at 8 years, 10 years, 13 years, none during 15 to 21, again at 21 and at 25. Every switch was due to separation due to distance, relocation, etc. I value all of them even today. But I was very sure that is NOT marriage or lifelong love. But I am sure I was searching something in them. And I still meet some of them and they still like me. One of my friend said it happened to me because I dint have a sister.
But my craving is answered. My wife loves me so much I just cant stand it sometimes
But in reality, I have changed so much, I dont do justice by cherishing her presence in my life. It is very sad but honestly that is the truth.
