This was so fucking good to read. And I love it so much. I took a leap and said fuck it kind of but not really similar and we are now engaged :) So happy for you and such a good read!

This was impossible to not read. I know that's butchering language, but I dove into the first sentence and literally could not find an exit until I'd consumed it all. Which worked out, because I wasn't looking for an exit. Congrats to you and Joe!!!

I think thats the best substack I have ever read. I never comment on posts (a habit I should break) but I just had to say this was incredible. I've never read something more relatable, more empowering about having a one night stand.

I love this ๐Ÿซถ I have two many โ€œfavorite partsโ€ to count, but I loved the silent promise to yourself and the letting go of the outcome. Beautiful love story for a beautiful couple. Thanks for sharing ๐Ÿ’•

I wasnโ€™t expecting that kind of happy ending! I thought this was gonna be a โ€œone night stands shouldnโ€™t be stigmatisedโ€ kinda post, which wouldโ€™ve been great too, but I absolutely love how real and sweet this was. Simple, every day love stories like this are my weakness, thank you so much for writing and sharing it ๐Ÿฉท

I had to read this immediately after seeing it on notes๐Ÿ˜‚ And I loved it! As someone whoโ€™s a-spec, the idea of a one night stand never held any appeal to me. But the thought of immediately feeling safe with someone, thatโ€™s the kind of connection I can only hope to one day find (even though I barely leave the house oops)๐Ÿ˜… So happy for you and your husband๐Ÿซถ๐Ÿป๐Ÿซถ๐Ÿป
