Twenty years

Few days ago my Dad told me a story.

There was a young couple who had been dating since they entered university. They were very close that their friends had no doubt that the couple would ended up marrying each other. Then they graduated and their friends were wrong. They married to other people.


Twenty years went by. Both of them were not happy with their marriages. They got divorce from their spouses. Then somehow, as always, history repeated itself. Once again they got tangled to each other. This time they finally got married.

I don't know why am I re-telling this story. Right after I heard it, I got mixed feelings. I am not sure whether this is a happy or sad story. Of course it is nice how they finally got married after 20 years. But I was kinda hurt because of the two divorces of 20-years-marriages.

And it's a true story, by the way.
