I know a women by the name of Yvette, and a man by the name of Sam. They've been together going on three years now, and well, so far, only Sam has fallen in love. Stabbed in the heart by past relationships Yvette is unable to move on. She believes that if every man she's ever fallen for has cheated and lied and took advantage of her why won' t this one be any different? Not saying that Sam doesn't have any flaws. He has lied before, but never to the point where it came to the expense of their relationship. Sam is a very good man. He has never betrayed his commitment to Yvette or even thought about it. He has made it VERY clear to everyone that Yvette is the one that he wants, yet, its not good enough for Yvette.
Let me give you a little about Yvette though. She has been in at least eight relationships in the past thirty years. She has married and divorced three of them, been abused by four of them, was very controlled by two of them and cheated on by ALL of them. The last man, before Sam, was the worse. He sent her into depression for about a year and caused her alcoholism intake to increase by 200%. He hurt it in some of the most worse ways, lets just leave it simple. And she's never been able to bounce back.
Now let me tell you about Sam. He is absolutely in love with Yvette. He cooks, he cleans, he does everything she asks of him, and always makes sure she is well taken care of. Even when they are arguing he adores her. He told me one night after a heated conversation with Yvette, "Even when we fight like this, I still adore her... because I know in the middle of the night she'll get off that couch, crawl into bed with me, tell me to stay on my side of the bed and get my own blanket, but even then...I'll still be happy. I'll just love having her there close to me. I love her."
I know, what you're thinking, sweet huh? You're probably thinking how could someone that sweet still not have the heart of the one he loves the most? How could Yvette not love him? I told Sam, you just need to keep trying. Don't give up on her. I know deep down she does love you, but she doesn't want to tell you. She doesn't want to open up that vulnerability. He has yet to believe me though. He has commented back saying, "I do everything for Yvette. She's my everything. Yet, I get nothing. Good guys always finish last. I just wish she could see how much I really love her."
In time, I would hope to see something more happen between them. Sam is someone that Yvette has been needing. She just hasn't pushed past her insecurities. I just hope Yvette can open her eyes. I see Sam slowly losing a fight that he shouldn't be losing. And a relationships that deserves to be alive is dying. Maybe good guys do always finish last...

ReplyDeleteWow.. this story was so cute and sad. Honestly made me want to cry a lot. Sam seems like a good guy, really. And i do see where yvette is coming from. If i were her i would be scared out of my mind to let someone know that i love them. Heartbreaks aren't always the easiest things to deal with. I wouldn't want my heart broken anymore if i were her. Theres no way that i could ever handle my heart and my mind getting messed with. I do hope she can open up a little bit though, because the one that really loves her won't stick around for too much longer if she doesn't. I hope the best for the both of them..
