Valentines Day 2010 : At this point V, L and I were engaged.
We were happily planning our wedding rings, wedding dresses, hair, shoes, cards, guest lists, honeymoon etc. Serena was the only one fiancée-less. If she felt left out about it, it didn’t show. She’s a great sport like that.
Anyways somehow the path to the aisle started to be filled with thorns for V and I.
V found out that her Prince Charming who claimed to be a divorcee is actually still married with 5 kids! When he went for a business trip abroad, it was actually for his 3rd or 4th honeymoon with a very happy Mrs! Wtf. V broke it up immediately …. That was in April. Smart move V. Score: V 1, Loser ExFiancee -100.
As for me, I realised that in my glee to be happily married forever after, I was closing my eyes on my fiancee’s big fault – a deal-breaker actually – his physical violence. After he left me with bruises and a swollen arm, I finally gave up on my stupid foolish dreams and declared to the world that I would rather be single for life than marry a monster. Yeay! (cue Rihanna's song “how ‘bout a round of applause….standing ovation”). I pulled the plug off our relationship in May.
As mentioned, L was the only one whose fiancée turned out to be the Real Deal. They went down the aisle in July.
And voila here we are…. 4 months after my break-up. Time to start keeping a record of our journey to find Mr Darcy (our all time fave Mr Right character).
Drumroll please, it’s time to rock and roll!
xoxo
