21. Another moment, in great detail.
This happened a little over two years ago, a week before my first anniversary with Vitaly. We had been through many arguments the past summer and I think we were really wearing each other down. I was unsure of where the relationship was headed, I didn't think I was good enough for him and I think I was scared of the commitment.
So one night, after lots of fighting, he went to bed and I stayed up, really angry. I made up my mind, then and there to break up with him. I called and I called but he didn't pick up his phone (it was about 2/3am). So we met up the next day and I said I didn't want to be with him anymore. He was mad about it but we spoke later that evening and it was kinda as if nothing had changed but we knew it had. The next day, I woke up feeling terrible, realizing the horrible mistake I had made. I dragged myself throughout the day and about 3PM, I begged him to come see me. He refused and kept refusing every time I asked.
So, in desperation, I told him that I would wait for him at a spot where I always waited for him after work, regardless of whether he showed up or not. He told me not to drive because at that point I had just started driving and I was a very bad driver when emotional. I told him I didn't care and that I would wait for him. I arrived at the spot and called him and begged him again to come see me and he still said no. But after a few minutes he said he'd be there soon. I figured I would have to wait at least 15 minutes because that's how long it took for him to get there from his job. I sat in my car, sobbing my eyes out, not really knowing what to do. And the next thing I know, he's walking down the street towards me. He had already been there when I called.
It was one of those, "He really loves me" moments and I think it's something that I'll never forget.
