I accidentally fell in love recently, and it was genuinely an interesting experience. It was with a man so handsome, so tall, and beautifully bearded, his beauty was truly one of a kind. He touched my heart from the second I first laid my eyes on him, it felt like I had developed a child-like crush on him.

What followed between us afterwards, was something that I did not expect. He, too, was drawn to me and we developed a unique bond — a bond filled with gentleness, playfulness, laughter and healing. I loved his company dearly, and he loved mine. We made adorable memories during our short time together — we filled our days with spontaneity, all while I knew I could rely on him.

He held me in such wonderful ways. He was emotionally intelligent, patient, gentle, strong, protective and an easy-going man. He was ambitious, reliable and an empathetic man. I love all of that about him. His ability to put himself in my shoes… His ability to hold space for the real, messy me… His respect for me, I am grateful to have experienced it.

I have never seen a man like him. I don’t know if I’m saying this because I’m deeply infatuated with him, but truly, his presence reminded me of how far I have come in terms of my own healing. I am proud of the way in which I was able to hold space for him and let him hold space for me. I will forever love the lessons that he has taught me…
