christian christianity college different faith god love relationship romance school

I've always pictured myself married to an amazing guy with adorable children in a perfect house, but here I am.. eighteen and I've never even been in a relationship. Better yet, I haven't even had my first kiss yet. So you could say my expectations are bit let down every year that goes by and this doesn't happen. Maybe, I'm just supposed to be single. Maybe that is the life God wants for me. Maybe, I'll just have to accept it.

Unconditional Love: From Unfinished to Forever by WoundedButterfly

She was his past. His "what-if." His unfinished chapter. He left without a word. No explanation. No goodbye. Just silence-cold, heavy, louder than any heartbreak could ever be. The truth came later, sharp and merciless: he had already found someone else. A new girl. A new life. And she-still trapped in the ruins of their love-was left with only questions that had no answers. She never hated him. Not truly. She hated the pain. The emptiness. The nights spent whispering his name into the darkness, hoping it would reach him somehow. She hated how her heart refused to let go, how her love-quiet, loyal, undying-remained, even when he was gone. Years passed. And then he returned. Mature. Changed. Sincere. The boy who had broken her had become a man carrying the weight of his mistakes after he knows the truth about her. Once, they had been reckless hearts, loving without knowing forever. Now, the same love returned-stronger, deeper, and more dangerous than ever. He was her peace in chaos, her truth in silence, the only man she had ever truly loved. And yet, she knew the truth: loving him again could destroy everything. It could break her all over again, or break the life he had now built. And still, the pull between them was irresistible, a force she could not deny. Her heart whispered the choice she would make, even as her mind screamed its warning. Some love-unfinished, eternal, impossible-refuses to be left behind. And she would follow it, knowing the regret that would haunt her for the rest of her life. When hearts-once they have found their other half-will chase it even into heartbreak. Even into ruin. True love is unstoppable and unconditional No matter where life leads, no matter the distance, when one heart trembles, the other reaches without hesitation- to embrace, to soothe, to whisper, "I AM ALWAYS HERE.""

A Flicker of Hope by CPRbluesheep

°Aniya° Hope and faith-two useless words. I buried them years ago, when life proved they don't keep promises. My mom has cancer. I work myself to exhaustion just to afford a chance at saving her. My father? Gone. Always has been. And me? I've always been alone. But then he barged into my life. Made things feel lighter, easier, almost... okay. Until everything came crashing down again. Now I'm stuck doing the one thing I promised myself I'd never do. Hope.. ------------- °Darius° Hockey was my dream. Until it broke me. Now I'm stuck living out a choice my parents wanted, and I agreed to, even if it feels like chains. Then she showed up. A girl who doesn't ask for help, doesn't want it, but still gets it from me-because I can't seem to stop. Something about her pulls me in and keeps me close. I've always done the same thing: I follow. I observe. I conquer. But she's different. This time, the only thing I want- is her.

His Silence, My Storm: Drowning In Hope by manahilalihere

They say love begins in silence. But what happens when the silence lasts too long? This is not a love story about happily ever afters. This is a story about almosts- About late-night conversations that stopped just short of meaning something. About eye contacts that promised more, but always ended in friendship. In Part 1, she loved him quietly. In Part 2, she starts to speak- but still, he doesn't listen the way she hoped. She tries to become his safe place. She tries to heal his fear of attachment. She tries to read his mind, hold his hand without holding it, and love him in a way that feels patient-not desperate. But the more she hopes, the more she drowns. This is the continuation of a one-sided love story that became too heavy to carry. A confession soaked in unsent messages, mixed signals, and a storm of emotions that never found a home. Sometimes, loving someone means letting go. Sometimes, silence is louder than goodbye.

Becoming "Forever Yours" by RemMonroe

Two girls. One heart. A tale of an unusual love. A story some of us need to hear. ~ "I like you. I don't care how uncomfortable that makes anybody. And I damn sure ain't letting anyone dictate if I can or can't talk to you." She brought my hands closer up, I could feel her cool breath against my knuckles. "Or if I can or can't be around you." "Why.. do you care so much?" I couldn't be angry anymore, not at her. Not with how she was looking at me right now. "Give me one good reason why I shouldn't." She pulled me into her, the smell of her leather jacket now more heady and thrilling as ever. She's going to kiss me.. She's.. she's really going to do it.. My eyes started to flutter close, head tilting in a fashion that allowed me to see what was coming just before I closed them completely. Awe shit. I backed away. "Turn around.." My chest tightened. "..And there's your reason."

You Are Mine by AyiraWrites21

I was enduring a feeling which I determined to never let happen, I was feeling suffocated in the web of something unexplainable, I was getting lost for the beauty of heart not knowing how to take care of it. I was longing for something too fragile, gentle, delicate knowing that it can get broken by being with me. "He was my safe place without me realizing it... he was my savior even before i met him, he was the person i dreamt about without recognizing it, he was the love in a heart where there was no hope of any emotion, he became my only family making me remember the love i lost with my parents." I wanted to keep her in my world, hoping our combined colors would blend into a beautiful sky filled with stars, a moon, and endless happy moments shared between us. She felt like my destination, a place where my mind could finally be at peace, free of thought. In a world where I felt defined by my parents' expectations, she felt like my own reality.

The Silence Between Us by splashcoke16

After an accident in eighth grade, Louisa Kelley was blind. Every day was a struggle for her as she tried to adjust to life both at school and at home, but life got easier with practice. As soon as Louisa entered high school, things had changed for the worse. The students around her bullied her because she was different, harassing her, stealing her things, and talking about her behind her back, making an already difficult life so much harder. Now in her junior year of high school, Louisa is broken and without anyone to call a friend. She eventually decides to remove herself from the bullies that surround her daily and be home schooled. That is, until she met Alex. Alex Mirren was born deaf, but when he was six years old, he received a cochlea implant that allowed him to hear. Even after the ten years of speech therapy where he had to teach himself how to hear, Alex prefers to stay in the silence and only communicates with the world when necessary. Life seemed dull to him as he was stuck in between two worlds of silence and noise, not knowing his purpose or place in society. That is, until he saw a girl with a walking stick in the hallways. Louisa and Alex weren't made for each other. Although the very presence of each other gives them new hope and strength, things are difficult as Louisa thrives by using her hearing, while Alex shies away from sound and uses sight. Without being able to communicate easily, they must learn to overcome the barrier of the silence between them, which is easier said than done. But aren't the struggles worth it to be with that one person that means everything?
