i went out with a girl in 1988, Lisa, she lived in Droylsden, came down Gorton with some mutual friends, and the first time i set my eyes on her i said to myself the search is over, i found her, she's the one i want to spend my life with, we started seeing each other, i used to walk her home up the yellow brick Rd from Debdale to Ashton old Rd, then up to to Ashton New Rd, i used to leave her at Windsor Rd/Manor Rd Rd, i was absolutely crazy mad on that girl, i did notice she used to cough and wheeze a bit but i thought she just had asthma or something, but one day we was sat on Debdale Reservoir one night and she turned round and told me she was dying and didn't know how long she had left, i never believed her, then told me we had to break up, that's when i thought it was a complete story to break up, but i was broken, she walked away and never came back, for years i used to walk up Droylsden, up Windsor Rd and round the estate, just hoping to bump in to her again, but never did, then years later a mutual friend sent me a friend request on Facebook, straight away i sent her a message and just rambled about Lisa, like a huge essay (like now) and never let the girl get a word in, after all the rambling i said "soo.. how is Lisa, what is she doing now" she said sorry but Lisa passed away in 1994 from cystic fibrosis, my stomach dropped, so did my jaw, i had no idea, all i know is i was shocked and it wrecked me so bad, to this day i have never forgot that girl, she was something special and she has been with me for 35 years, she is buried in Droylsden cemetery, i have been meaning to go see her but i know i will ball my eyes out and cry.. Dammit, man it still hurts..
@@SteveProcterPhotography i do really want to go but i'm not sure right now, it's still pretty raw, because i haven't known for long that she was gone, as far as i knew she was still ok and living in Droylsden, i have said for years and years i always hoped to meet her again, even as friends on Facebook, i didn't have a single clue she had died, in my mind right now it just feels like it was yesterday.. So Cruel is Life.. this is why when i separated from my Kids mother in 2012, i said i would never get in another relationship again, seems that every time we get to care for anything some crap happens.. But this girl took a part of me with her, i know i settled down and had kids but she was the one i really wanted to be with. it sounds horrible on my kids, but if i could have had the same kids but with Lisa, that would have been ideal. It's just torturing me right now. but i hope as time passes it will get easier. it has to, because this feeling is Horrible.. Thanks for reading, i know it's a bit odd you got a comment like mine, but when you're hurting you say these things. Thanks Man..
@@80s_kid. Don't worry, I totally understand. I think many of us have burnt a torch for the one true love while settling for another due to various circumstances. I feel for you, as you are suffering now you know she has passed, it's heartbreaking 😪 I don't mind you talking on here, if it helps then I'm more than willing to be here for you. I honestly think when you visit her, and tell her all the things you wanted to say over the years, it will feel better ❤ For now, try to have a nice weekend. Steve

It's a nice story mate, thanks for sharing.
I think you should go and pay your respects though; it might allow you to let go.
