Do you believe in “right person, wrong timing?”

or are they not just really the right ones?

Have you met a person that you unexpectedly like but know you can’t?

You had similar interests and a similar sense of humor, and it felt like you just got along with each other.

Everything was fine… but the timing was off.

You were both in different places or with different priorities and commitments that stopped you from pursuing a relationship.

The connection you had was undeniable, but it seemed like you were two puzzle pieces that just didn’t fit.

Despite the circumstances, you couldn’t deny the feelings you had for this person.

You found yourself thinking about them frequently, wondering “what if” things had been different.

Isn’t it ironic? Two people who could have made each other so happy — a gentle reminder of a love story interrupted by the cruelty of timing.

You would find yourself thinking about what could’ve been, but deep down, it wasn’t meant to be.

It was a constant struggle between moving on and holding on to a chance that might never come.

The longer time passed, the more bittersweet the memories became.

You had to let go, yet a part of it still couldn’t shake the feeling that you had missed out on something special.

It seems like fate has a cruel sense of humor, doesn’t it? It’s like missing out on something so close and within reach.

And yet, I’m reminded of another quote: “If you’re meant to be, the time and place won’t matter.”

Maybe your paths will cross again, and the stars will align. If not, the memories remain.
