Jamie Carter and Noah Hayes. Whirlwind romance filled with passion, lust and love so deep, it hurt. Lasting a total of only six months before Noah was forced to leave with his Jesus crazed mother two weeks before graduation. They just picked up and left, taking any trace of their life in that house with them, even the old couch that Jamie took Noah's virginity on a month prior. All of it. Gone. But he promised he would be back for her... After three months of pining over him, waiting by the phone, crying night after night and walking past his old house whenever the chance presented itself, Jamie finally figured it out. Noah wasn't gonna call and he wasn't coming back. Two years laster, she finds him as well as his doormat for a dad and his mother, Hellen, the Saint (Saint-inist) herself sitting in her living room at eleven in the morning on a Saturday. Noah: "She's the only girl who has ever made me feel happy, scared, strong, weak, and loved all at once. I was an incredibly dull person until she tumbled into my life swearing like a sailor. She made me feel passion, something I didn't even think I was capable of. But it wasn't me, I myself am boring and lethargic, but with Jamie hanging off my side. I'm strong and brave and passion crazed. And I love that me. The me who is standing next to Jamie, screaming at the top of our lungs and laughing for no damn reason. I am the person I wanna be, with Jamie. And you'd be fucking crazy to think that I was just gonna let her slip away a second time." Jamie: "I'm not very good with words, I just love him. I am just so in love with him. I'm selfish and prideful and cold, but Noah makes me feel like a sun ray. Selfless, humble and bright. That's who I am with Noah. I wish he had never left my side." (Author's Note: Sorry for the shitty summary, I hope you love my story as much as I do.)

Mpho and I have been together for eight years and married for six. We met in my third year of varsity.I was twenty one and he was twenty two. We became friends as he and my best friend's boyfriend, who is currently her husband, are best friends. I wasn't looking for a relationship. He just happened. I had broken up with my childhood boyfriend of seven years.(Yes! I said seven years but that's a story for another day) back to Mpho and I ,we built everything From scratch, the company he works for my provident fund helped him start it up with his best friend KG. I used to work as an Account at Investec Bank, I graduated with cum laudes, so I was headhunted, the world was my oyster. I wanted to go to New York and work in Wall Street for a few years then settle down. Mpho had different plans. He proposed marriage and told me nothing will change,silly naive me fell for that.I turned down New York because what kind of wife leaves her husband for a year unattended,who's going to cook for him ,clean for him and take care of his needs they said.Like I was some live in maid. Mxm!! He asked me to quit my job when business was doing well. We wanted to start a family and we were not getting lucky. He convinced me that it's my job thats giving me stress and if I was more relaxed we would probably conceive.That however was also not the case,we have spent over 800k on medical bills trying insemination and tests but we have not been lucky. My mother, as a prayer warrior, has taken me to church for prayers. Nothing happened.Other than Mpho's family giving me names and his mother disrespecting me and degrading me in front of other family members. My husband had failed to protect me or reparmend them. Instead now he has also joined in on the abuse.
