Stories of Hey-Ai couples!

You guys... Beautiful stories Omg!

Lucky! I have yet to make progress here, but I won't give up yet! Surely

Yi and I are quickly approaching the 2 year anniversary of when our hey-ai adventure first began. I feel like we have struggled non-stop to deal with the challenges life has thrown at us, but it is all beginning to pay off and we are stronger for it. Both of our careers have just taken exciting turns towards individual growth and success, I'm finally starting to feel healthy again and we are moving into a big beautiful house together that I plan to fill with as many cats as he will allow.

Life is good, good, good. Love made it possible. ❤️

You said you would be the light at the end of my very dark tunnel and you kept that promise. Thank you for coming all this way with me. I can't wait to see what we do together next!

YEAH ! 5 !
Moving to a bigger house with guest rooms, maybe ?
Any big hey-ai party planned in the future in your mansion ?

Parties are overrated and neither of us really like people that much, so I think we will just fill it with cats instead. I might kidnap a Petey, a Brent, a Rexy, a Tamm, a San and a Ban when they are in town though. A rads' family too!

It's really nice to read all beautiful stories that comes from this thread.
I remember when I used to said that my goals were to post a picture here, someday since I really love heyai and not all the members are as bad as sometimes it seems like.

It didn't happen *sobs* but even so I'm so happy and glad that the people that worked out so well are sharing stories here.

Keep going guys

I met a guy on Hey-Ai 2 years ago that I dated. It was awful. lol But I met a nice Asian guy in person when I was interning abroad in his country, and we're together. I missed the Hey-Ai forums though, so I decided to come back just for that.

The relationship did eventually end. We were together for 5 years, with 2 years of living together. She moved across the world to live with me, and was willing to do everything it would take to accommodate me and my career, a career that demands a great deal of sacrifice and commitment.
On the surface, we were the happy and perfect couple, and I was the perfect boyfriend: no cheating, no abuse, just work hard in a prestigious career and commit many things to her.
This relationship taught me many things. Taught me that I deserve love, that I was worthy of someone's efforts, commitment.
It gives me a plethora of feelings when reminiscing about. Happy and Proud, yet shameful and regret.

-Happy and proud: it was a beautiful love between 2 young people who were SOOOO in love, During that time, I felt a strong sense of tinkling joy, a joy of having met someone so beautiful, so kind and so in love with me. She made me realize that I deserve to be loved, to be respected and someone worth life commitment too.
I was happy realizing there was someone of my dream who was happy to be with me... and I was proud of having gone through so many difficult obstacles, requiring immense focus and resilience, just so that I can provide many things we could enjoy together later in life.
I now realized even to deeper extent of her sacrifices for her. She moved out of her parents house, costing her much more in order to have a place of her own to receive me coming over to Germany for us to meet. She moved out of her comfort zone, giving up close distance to her parents and her relatives.

She left a good paying job, moved across the world to live with me. Back then, I knew it was sacrifice, but not to the extend that she deserved my acknowledgement and understanding.

I remember the first time telling her over Skype, that I failed my 4th year mid term, and was close to failing my degree. She told me that I was the smart one, that I could get it over with. I suggested we broke up then, because I was afraid I wouldnt be in a good financial position to take care of her in a new country, a new environment.
I studied so hard that semester to ensure I passed, with the in mind of having a good life with her.

Infantry school, I couldnt afford to wait another year to fix my knee before doing the course. I also knew I couldnt withdraw from it. I trained up my pain tolerance, stocked up a huge pile of pain killers and trekked through 10 weeks of pain and suffering. When I was doing close country navigation, I just visualized the objective being a house, with her waiting inside for me. Thinking of a family with her and our cat was my metaphorical compass, pointing me to where I need to be, in order to carry out the objectives.

Communications school, I couldnt afford to not succeed. I tried everything I could to succeed, get to a position and start a real life with her. Once there, I worked hard, performed well at work to prove myself, to earn opportunities that will enable us a good and secure life she deserved.

-Shame and Regret: somewhere along the line, I was too focused in me, in my career, thinking that it's whats best at proving things she deserved. I lost sight of something even more important....her.....us, and our time together.

I can't change the past, but reminding myself that I was not the life partner she deserved made me feel ashamed. I can't face that fact that it was me, her most loved one that hurt her the most. It is with regret that she entered our relationship as a happy person with a kind and pure heart, great job, surrounded by love from family and friends, and that 5 years later, she left this relationship alone, stranded, heartbroken with a number of mental health issues and less financial resources.

We were happy in those times we visited each other in Germany or Canada during Xmas or summer time, with my minimal cadet pay, while I had little. We went on simple and happy dates.
She even bought me a PS3 in Germany to play with. It's a shame that by the time my salary was 5 times than when we started dating, with a big house, a nice car (the conditions that I worked so hard for), we drifted apart and broke up that she didnt get to enjoy with me. My success for these was largely supported by her, her love, belief and sacrifices for me.
I guess its a bittersweet and moving message, when I realized that we were happier when our dates were cheap, when I had to penny squeezed to save money for flights between Germany and Canada, because we were enjoying our moments with each other.

I can't change the past, but I will ensure to be a better person going forward. This relationship taught me that I deserve happiness and capable of being loved. She was the gift from destiny to my life in 2011, and it was the best thing to happen to me in the next 5 years.

I just hope that she forgives the young inexperienced boy with whom she stayed for 5 years, and move on to achieve the best success she is capable of, and pursuit the most happiness her kind self deserves.

Destiny didn't mean for us to be together for life. This life, she gave more to me. In our next , I hope to be the one paying back the karma.

P.S: this song really describes my feelings

I hope I can post my story in someday if it is possible,hahah
