I met James, aka...Bud in Chattanooga, TN in 1989. We were not only friends, we eventually started dating. We always had a special bond. I ended up moving away and as you have it, life moved on and we lost touch over the years. A mutual friend of ours gave him my phone number, and after 25 years apart, the love of my life called me. We talked day and night for two months, except for the hours that he was at work. Sometimes he would even call me when he was on break at work. We basically lived on the phone. We realized that after all that time, nothing had chaned with our feelings for one another. We made plans for him to visit for Christmas, and on Christmas Eve, he asked me to marry him, in front of my family. We had almost 8 short years together. He was taken from me way to soon! I don't think I will ever be able to fully deal with that. He was my one and only. The only one that I ever truly loved and know for a fact that he truly loved me. He was my soulmate. He took part of me with him, and I will never feel whole again until we are together once more. I'll like you forever, I'll love you for always...Forever and Always my soulmate, you'll be.❤️❤️
