Hi british_boy, firstly I want to thank you for sharing this amazing story, and compliment you on your bravery! It's a very nice story indeed, and very well written too! I absolutely adore your writing style, it's full of emotion and there's a true sense of urgency to it that brings the despair and relief you felt so clearly to our minds. Maybe you could write a book from your experiences and resolution? You'd have at least one buyer (ME!!).
I got goosebumps. It is truly inspiring, I'm happy for you, seems you have found true love. I had forgotten how that feels, to risk all, to just let go...
It was incredibly romantic, and I absolutely loved reading your story. Still having a hard time believing this is all real and happened to someone, you were very lucky in taking this risk and being successful. Many aren't so fortunate, and for that I am, perhaps, a little envious of you. I wish you both all the happiness this world can give you, and hope that these events make you never be afraid to pursue your dreams.
Edward.
