I know many have written about being in love, having a broken heart, and other things about that nature but many don't talk about how you get to that point in a relationship when enough is enough. You start off being in love or being attracted to that person one way or the other and you go with it. You feel happy with this person that you see certain things like little habits that if you were not happy with that person than it definitely would be a red flag that you conscientiously would make an effort to stay away from that person.

Not to say that relationships with kids that are not yours is difficult but I don't have kids and I didn't know if at the time if I would be able to handle that.
So it finally happened and from the moment we initiated the possibility it was intense. Our first kiss was at that bar right in front of the washroom. I was going back to our group he was going to the washroom. We didn't plan it and there was no awkwardness involved. We kissed perfectly as if we having been kissing each other forever.
