OK so my husband and I knew each other in high school but we never dated back then. God knew what he was doing because I know I would never have stayed with him. He was a very active dater back then. lol!! I was no angel but you know... Anyway, so 4 or 5 years go by and my best friend meet and married a guy named Lance. I was over at her house one day helping her do laundry. I took the folded laundry into her bedroom to put it away and there on the dresser was a picture of Lance and Shawn. I had known Lance for a couple of months and I didn't even know he had a brother. I took the picture to Brooke and asked her how the boys knew each other and she said " That's Lance's brother Shawn." I was so excited that I had a way to get in contact with the guy that I felt I let slip away. Umm I think I forgot to mention that I was married to my first husband at this time. My first husband was a big mistake but we live and we learn. So Brooke and I put together a big party for the following weekend so that I could reconnect with Shawn and see where he was in life journey. During that party I found out that Shawn was also married to his first wife who I think he would agree was his biggest mistake as well. Flash forward another 2 or 3 months. My first husband and I just could not make it work. Its hard to make it work when he just cannot find it in himself to stay faithful. I really thought that if I was a good wife that he would be faithful but I quickly learned that no matter what I did he was the problem. So I ended that marriage to keep my sanity. Little did I know that Shawn was going through the same thing with Wife #1. We ended up separating from our first spouses within weeks of each other, and Shawn moved in with his brother and Brooke. I was always over at Brooke's and so needless to say we got to see a lot of each other over the next few months. One day I was sitting over there and Brooke's cousin said she needed to talk with me. Of course I said sure and she proceeded to tell me how she was attracted to Shawn and how she knew I was attracted to him too. I told her that she was right that I did like him a lot. I had no idea where this was going but I remember thinking that this was not good lol. Anyway so she says "When we go out tonight I am going to make my move." Well I honestly thought that Shawn liked her so I agreed to back off and went on with My day. We get to the club and the cousin forgot her ID. Needless to say I took full advantage of this opportunity and Shawn and I had a lot of fun that night and we have been together ever since. I know that Shawn is my soulmate. I am so thankful for everything that God has provided me.
