Win.

Have you ever had something happen to you without expecting it to happen? Let me try to rephrase that. Have you ever had something happen to you that you didn’t think would ever happen to you? I’ll give you a couple of examples.

Last week, I was going out to apply for jobs. I had to find my lip gloss and I just couldn’t find it.1 I went to look into one of my many purses and I found a half eaten Payday bar, a ticket stub from a Yankees game from like 2 years ago, and a dollar.

Yes, a dollar. I don’t even know where it came from, but seeing as I was scraping for money, this was just nice to find. Win.

Now for the second (even deeper) example.

As you know, I’ve been playing PWI for over a year. It’s become a form of mental health therapy for me. Well, you meet all kinds of people from all over. I’ve made great friends and even if we never meet in person, I value all of my friends, no matter where I meet them. And that brings me to…

Back in this post, I introduced you to someone who managed to, since then, break through the cynical part of me. Keep in mind that I didn’t expect to meet anyone romantically through playing this game, and…

didn’t expect it to happen.

What is it? It’s what every girl dreams of. Well, every girl that is girly enough to want it. It’s what I’ve always dreamed of. It’s what I never expected to happen to me. It’s what I never expected to happen to me with someone who lives farther away than we’d wish.

What is this it?

He proposed. Cautiously, but he did it.

What makes this relationship extra special isn’t where we met (it’s a pretty strange story to tell), but it’s his first relationship, and it’s my longest. We’ve been together for a year, and that’s a record…for the both of us. We’re really excited for the day he visits (sometime within the month most likely).

It’s as if I need to pinch, slap, punch, kick, and stab myself to make myself wake up. How the hell did this happen to me? Either way, it’s win.

This is my fail attempt on a real entry…I just ran out of gas in the middle. But it’s something, right?

  1. It was in plain view on my dresser–the first and last place I would look

Okay so he proposed, but you didn’t tell us what your answer was, lol. I assuming yes, and if so then congrats.

I hope your meeting goes well and I look forward to reading more actual entries from you in the future. :)

Hoi Thar.

Crestfallen is the 3.5-year-old site of a sarcastic 20-something natural-born New Yorker/California implant who goes by the name Nat Marie most days, but answers to many other things, including Shadow, Chickenhead, and "Hey Bitch!". She has a love for writing, performing arts, and cats (albeit allergic to them). You will find love, life, and a lot of writing and sarcasm sprinkled in. Enjoy.
