I am single for a long time now. It is not because I’m ugly. It is not because of my attitude. It is not because of the people around me or my parents. But it is because I am waiting for the right time that he will come into my life. True love really waits, I do believe in that saying.

I have a deep crush on a boy who is a swimmer in our place. He attended many swimming contest and earn gold medals. He also dances well. He is cute and charming. He looks like my father and acts like my father too. He has healthy gums. I really like him. He owns all the qualities I like in a guy. He is smart; he recently graduated in a prestigious school earning a bachelor’s degree. He is the one for me, I always tell myself that. But I don’t have the courage to look at him in the eye when we meet. He says Hi to me always and it makes my heart jump for joy but I just look down and say nothing. I really wanted to say Hi! Ernest but my tongue does not follow what I want to happen.

One day, I and my cousins went into a studio to watch a show. It is a funny show. I was enjoying myself with my two cousins. When the show is over, we let people exit first. We waited until no one is in the studio before we would leave. Beside the studio, there is a rehearsal room for dancers. I saw him their, he saw me too. We looked into each others eyes, which was the first time I looked into his eyes. I feel that I am shaking. My cousin holds me. He approached to us smiling. Showing his beautiful and white teeth. He doesn’t have bad breath. His eyes are also smiling too. I smiled to him in return, maybe my gums are showing that time because of happiness. He invited me to have a coffee. I can’t talk so my cousin said yes for me. That was a trembling experience but he was walking with me to the cafeteria. I was smiling all the time while I was with him. It was a nice encounter.

 We are now best friends, we hang out together. He courted me but I wanted him to say as my friend for now but I honestly like him. I told him that. Maybe we should wait for the right time. I already know that he will always be there, without gingivitis, for me and he is going to be my husband because my mother likes him too for me. Sometimes, ask myself is this the right time for us?

Where do you usually hear these lines, "Through Thick and Thin"? Where? As for myself, I always hear this during weddings in the church, beach, garden, and mountain. And usually those who are in love say these lines. It is good to hear, even if you listen to it a million times. What does through thick ad thin means? It is a vow that ties you to continue loving each other no matter what will happen. It is the connection that you will have no matter what. It is maintaining the feelings since you first say I love you.

And also these lines are also famous "Till Death Do Us Apart". If you hear this, it may sound scary because it talks about death. How can you prolong the relationship? It is by staying the same. Having time for each other even if you are tired. Create more intimacy between you and your partner. Take care of each other. Somewhat like you were you were taking care of a new born baby. Very delicate.

Having a partner for life needs a lot of effort. You need to give your all. And by that you need to stay fit and healthy. You do not want your partner to suffer taking care of you; you need to be responsible for your own self when it comes to health.

You should support each other and even be willing to tell the other they have halitosis.  You can direct them to a product like essential oramd or send them to check out oral irrigators.

Take vitamins, as doctors said "Prevention is better that cure". That is so true; prevent bad diseases by having an exercise everyday, take multivitamins, and if possible to be cheaper try herbal medicines. Live healthy so that your promise to stay thick and thin will never encounter any problem. And the promise till death do us part will happen in the time when your hair is gray, when aging of your face and skin is observable, and when you are having an arthritis a sign of aging.

It so pleasant to hear that you will be growing old with your partner with your grand sons and daughters playing in your courtyard. Life is just a matter of choice. You just have to choose to be healthy and be wise.
