what goes in her mind as she moves on

"I think that if life separates us and we end up in totally different places, we’ll always remember when our paths aligned for this period of time and I’ll be thankful for that. And I hope that wherever you are, you’ll be thankful, too. And I think that’s the best we can wish for." - Josh (Strangers, Again)

i saw this on the facebook wall of my former college classmate. with this, her new facebook account and few other wallposts, my assumption is that she and her longtime boyfriend broke up.

there are few romances that i look up to (to the point of envy) and believe so firmly that will last for as long as they live. theirs is one of them. she's an awesome girlfriend, she loves without limits and shows it without hesitations. she was never demanding and she's faithful. she managed to keep their long distance relationship work without so much drama since we were in college. we are not really close friends but i know all these because i stalk her. i frequent her wall to keep myself inspired and motivated to be just like her or learn a little bit of her patience. i obviously didn't adapt any of it but i remained a fan. if she isn't an ideal girlfriend, then she's close to it.

i don't know how she's coping. what i do know though is that her awesomeness doesn't stop in being a girlfriend. she's an awesome person too. she takes the heartbreak maturely and pretty gracefully. she'll be fine soon enough.

i hold the same thought for her. wherever he is now, i hope he is thankful that their paths crossed too. he should be. for in that period of time, he'd been the luckiest man.
