My bestest Bae! ❤

I want to tell you a story, children…
The story of Will and Fahr, meeting on Tumblr autumn 2012. The story of two people Roleplaying for hours on end, so they could be together, if only in a fantasy world. How they fell in love while being both in complete denial, one engaged to a boring guy they hardly felt anything for because they suppressed their true identity for years without telling anyone, surrounded by cynical people with no perspective. The other one struggling with their coming out and feelings too big to handle alone, searching for love at first sight for so many years, disappointed by most of their former encounters.
They met, for the first time, already deeply in love, but committed otherwise, too afraid to even admit it. The story how they skated around each other for a year, so scared that they bro-zoned each other on several occasions. Breaking up with who they were seeing, jumping on the chance that the other MIGHT like them back. They didn’t even talk about it. They didn’t dare to. They just hoped.
Saved up to see each other, one more time. Fahr promised herself, if this time he would get her hints, just one little hint, it would MEAN something and she would tell him how she felt. She was setting all her hopes on it. If only he would love her back. She was so scared the second time he came over, but she had to set it all on one card. And she did. And he did.
He loved her back. He truly did.
Her Thor, her Bae, he boyfriend.

Cliches aside, I am really happy that Will and I ended up together after being friends for so long. Love can happen, even online, even on Tumblr, even very late in life, when you don’t really wait for it anymore. So, if you are still solo, don’t give up. Your perfect partner just waits somewhere, desperate to meet you!
