Read the storyjust a simple love story between 26 yo blonde tall computer scientist rachel and 27 yo brown hair brown eyes super fit max who is military. they meet on tinder in july and talk for 3 months and fall in love, after all, his first message to rachel was hi i think im in love with you. its like theyve known each other for years. like their missing piece. max lives in wisconsin, rachel in idnana. they bond over books they read, workouts, love for adventure, rachel is sweet but pokes fun at him. he calls her at his friendss wedding tipsy, he calls her to pickout his brothers bday gift. hes patient, kind, funny. theyve never met, but max is driving to NC in September to start special ops military training. he says they can have their first 'date' when he drives through :) He is going to stop in tennesee to do some cave exploring, then drive up and see rachel, then drive to nC. rachel gets all ready, nervous and excited to meet him, she thinks she'll marry him. she cleans her house, buys cute deocr, get soft pajamas. he finishes his cave exploration and is supposed to drive up to her the next day. she messages him that night to confirm, but he simply says. I don't think I'll make it, Im so done with driving I just want to drive through to NC> she is heartbroken. she was so sure what they had was real, that he was just as antsy to see her as she was to see him... she simply replies No worries! That makes sense :). then she messages back she can't keep this going with him, and she wishes him the best in NC. he simply respinds an hour later. I wish you the best to. A year goes by... and she missed him. she thinks about him constantly wondering what went wrong? Does he still think about me? Did he move on? She waits every night for him to reach out, to apologize, to explain... and he nver does. she cries every night, praying she'll move on. She deserves to be chosen, to be with someone who would drive a couple extra hours to her.
