My Take on Friendship

Before I came here… unknown to me… my then fiancé [A.K.A Hubby or Sweetest] was looking for my “soon-to-be-friend” Filipina. Crazy as it may sound but that is the truth.

When I finally came here… unknown to me… he drove me to a nearby town… and my then soon-to-be-husband stopped in front of a purple house and told me… “this is where your new Filipina friend – Medy lives”.

What the heck?

---------------------------------------------------------------

I don't exactly know what Hubby was thinking back then or what was his definition of friendship but Medy... is the only Filipina friend I have here in Maine.

Looking back now… I was glad that Hubby did find me a friend because she became the sister that I never had and my family away from my very own.

Well, I did ask him why he did that in the first place and he told me... "I was looking for a Filipina weeks before you came here because you might get homesick and bored and will change your mind and will go back home and leave me".

So I realized that he thought, with a Filipina friend, those concerns will never occur. I was really touched and happy that it did work out between me and Medy.

And I am happy that Hubby sometimes think of some silly things [that will surely never cross my mind] to make me happy.
