White people can love shaa. I wanted to be angry at her for bringing expired body to the man but seeing that she is taking care of him in his sick bed is something to appreciate the old oyibo vaginarian for.

Just about one of the disadvantages of racism.
Imagine the sort of lives they'd both have lived had they not been victims of racial discrimination, the type of love that they'd both have had.
Perhaps, a better union, better lives being married to each other. There wouldn't have been need for 40something years apart. Just love, laughter and peaceful existence.

Babe, it's actually here in our midst too. The case here is just that, most times it used to be one sided here, due to so many factors. i.e. friends, family, associates, colleagues, personality, beliefs, and finances. E.t.c..


But if you meet someone(male/female) who doesn't succumb to peer pressures, amidsts others, TRUE-LOVE actually exists here in Nigeria too dear...

True love is always never enough in today's world, so it's always sacrificed for something else... mostly our personal selfish interests ( pride, lust, luxury, monetary gains, social n economic status etc) but in this case it was the interest of her folks that made her sacrifice it against her will and probably better judgement.. she did well to retrace her steps. A lot of people suffer and die off in pains ( physical and emotional) because of that single lifetime decision they took. Though some pretend to be happy because of the things they sacrificed it for.. I hope u find and keep urs smiley

Jeannie wrote to him twice but didn't get response.

Eventually she showed up at the care home facility this summer with their graduation photo in her hand and butterflies in her stomach.

She recalled their reunion, writing: 'The minute he rolled into the visiting room and uttered the sweet nickname he gave me, forty two years melted away.

'He and I were 18 and 21 again.

We cried, we laughed, we held each other and most wonderfully we realized we were still in love.'

Steve had suffered two strokes 15 years ago, leaving him debilitated and Jeannie was his first visitor in ten years.


'I knew at that moment that he still loved me, and this time it was going to be forever.

I just knew it,' .

With the help of a GoFundMe page, and using the rest of her savings, Jeannie has managed to bring Steve out of the nursing home to her home in Portland, Oregan, where she is now his carer.

Although Steve finds it difficult to speak, he can still make Jeannie laugh and they have forgiven each other for the past and rekindled their long-lost love.

She said: 'I did a very stupid thing 42 years ago and I've regretted it ever since. And all I can do now is love him as best I can and see to it that he's happy and give him the quality of life that he really deserves and he's missed all these years.'
He may die soon..
He may die because of the feeling of fulfilment.
That he had achieved one good thing which is so rare..
He found a very true love.

Jeannie Gustavson, 68, and Steve Watts, 71, dated secretly for seven years in the 70s during College days.

They broke up 42 years ago as her family didn't approve of interracial dating.


A mixed-race couple who were college sweethearts and dated each other secretly in the 1970s have recently reunited and discovered they are 'still in love'.

Jeannie Gustavson and Steve Watts met as students at Loyola University in Chicago when she was a freshman, aged 18, and he was a senior, aged 21, and they soon started dating.

However, he was black and she was white and her family disapproved of interracial dating, meaning they had to conduct their relationship in secret for seven years.

Despite ultimately breaking up forty-two years ago, Jeannie, now 68, always regret the decision to end the relationship and has never forgotten about Steve.

Many of you are incapable of loving yourself not to talk of another person. The story here has nothing to do with yours.
