I’ve been crying a lot lately. Not because I’m pathetic (maybe because I’m pathetic). Not because I’m drinking wine alone (maybe because I’m drinking wine alone). But mainly because I’m a cheeseball and I can’t get enough of this video.
You may have seen it already. Watch it again.
It’s a real love story, and I love that it exists. This stuff really exists.
Phew.
I’ve been holding out for this kind of love, and it looks like it’s not for naught. If Danny and Annie could find it, I can find it.
People may think it’s weird to be in your thirties and single. Many more traditional types might consider me to be a dragon or an alien or perhaps an old maid because I’m thirty and I don’t yet have three kids and a large ass. But I’d rather wait for this than be mediocre married early. Thanks for reminding me, Annie and Danny.

Man, I just watched it again. Tears! The wedding dress part is a killer.
I will watch as soon as I'm home from work. I need a good cry!
This made me cry also. At work.
I don't think it's weird to be 30 and single. Or, um, 31 and single. I wasn't all that figured out in my twenties. Not sure I was in any shape to make a decision about the rest of my life.
No I wasn't crying, It was raining on my face.
sobbing.
30 and single? Well, I'm 7 months from being there myself, and I agree with you – I'm not an old maid, I'm looking for a love like this.
This is the second time that reading your blog has elicited big, fat, heavy droplets of tears from my face.
I remember when I used to feel that I would be capable of loving someone like Danny loves Annie. There have been attempts in relationships where I have tried to make habits like that and I have stopped because…
Anywho, this was so very touching and I am glad that I found your blog and the entries that I have read today!!

So beautiful! Takes my jadedness away..for a moment or so. Love does exist Laurenne!!
Thanks for watching, you guys. I feel like writing love letters to everyone today.
oh. my. god.
why did you just do that to me!
wow.
it does exist laurenne. i'm lucky to say i have that – 21 years and counting, and we say i love you every day.
hold out!!! it's worth waiting for.
I was married in 1978, but I never had a lasting love like these guys. I'm starting to look for it again…and I'm well past 30!
TEARS! But thank you for sharing. This was so fitting for this week. I put a silly little card in Mike's suitcase every week. I ran out of cards a few weeks ago and didn't think too much of it. Mike mentioned he missed the cards and now I guess I understand why. They never say anything super important, but they are important to him.
i love love love this.
I just came across your blog thru a friends linking it on facebook and I am definitely bookmarking it.
Thank you for posting this video I started crying at what a beautiful love these two people shared. I am 31 without a man or children and my family is already harping on me about it all. Thanks to this video I am reminded I am doing the right thing by holding out not for the perfect man but the right man.
