Great story Yvonne. I get the idea that this guy will always be looking for a dream girl, not a real one! Interesting insight, you really get inside his head.

Thanks for reading, Kate! Who knows what this guy will be up to.. I really enjoy putting myself in someone else’s shoes, and explore what life looks like from their angle. I should write more fiction like this…

This is beautiful, Yvonne, and oh so sad. I can relate to the gnawing pain of being with someone who does not fit you. I had decided that it was better to be alone than to be with someone who doesn't "get me." But lo and behold, as soon as I gave up searching he appeared and I am now happily married to a man who fits me like a glove and whom I am deeply in love with. The Universe works in mysterious ways.

Thank you for this beautiful story🙏
