This fairytale began not so long ago in a two hundred year old library where I was searching for answers, for that day was the one filled with the most sorrow and grief that I held in my broken heart. I found the answer to my prayers, I found The Secret. After reading and observing that magnificent piece of literature, I already knew what my heart was screaming for since I was a little girl, for my Romeo.

When I was younger my mother used to read Romeo and Juliet to me before going to bed but she would always change the end and it filled me with excitment and desire for my own Romeo. When I got older I read the book myself and found out that they both die at the end and that crushed me, but I never lost hope that my story will be different.

But as the time passed and years slipped through, I saw all those beautiful couples in love, giving their hearts to each other for eternity. I felt lost and lonely. I was ready, I have read it and understood it. I made up in my mind who he would be, where he would live, what he would do, how he would speak to me, so on, so on… I even made a list of all the good things I wanted him to be and do. I was very specific and clear in what I wanted.

Visualisation is a very important step, but I couldn’t visualize my soulmate if I had no physical image of him, so I decided to find the most attractive male person and take his outer appearance for visualising my soulmate. I made a choice that it would be Brad Pitt as Louis in the movie Interview with a Vampire (that is my favourite movie). So I did just like the book and the movie said and in just one month and 14 days, I’ve met my Romeo.

I was in my favourite place on earth, the two hundred year old library that was just my style (gothic/victorian). I was just looking at some books when the one I was holding fell on the floor and I was already on my way to pick it up when I saw a hand grabbing it and someone saying: ‘Oh please, let me, here you go!’. As I was saying:’Thank you!’ and getting up from the floor, I turned and saw him. His eyes, his hair, his facial features, the way he dressed, it was literally identical to what I was visualising in my head. He was the image of Brad Pitt in the Interview with the Vampire movie.

I still remember how hard I was shaking and the goosebumps I still get when I write this. I was in such shock that he asked me am I alright and do I need his company to get home. I couldn’t believe it, he looked, he smiled, he talked just like him and after a few dates (yes, he did like me and wanted to see me again), I realized he had all the good things I wanted him to. Tears are rolling down my face as I’m writing this wonderful fairytale of mine. I never thought that such a blessing would happen to me (I never loved myself, in my opinion I’m a very unattractive person). But the main thing is that my life wish came true, I have my soulmate and he does love me I know it and I also know that it will stay that way for all the eternity.
