I enjoy chess, photography, and exploring libraries. I also love movies, theory, and teleology. Stupidity after education means learning for a better.

  3. Finally ❤ সময়টা ছিল ২০১৬ ,প্রথম আলাপ আমাদের হয় ফেসবুকে শুধু বন্ধু ছিলাম আমরা তখন। তবে বেশিদিন আর বন্ধু হয়ে থাকতে পারলাম না ; ঘনিষ্ঠতা বাড়লো প্রেম ও বাড়লো আর ২০১৯ থেকে আমরা গার্লফ্রেন্ড বয়ফ্রেন্ড হয়ে গেলাম। এই বিগত ৯ বছরের আলাপ সামান্য বন্ধুত্ব থেকে শুরু হয়েছিল তবে শেষ হয়েছে পূর্ণতায়। আজ ২০শে সেপ্টেম্বর আমাদের ভালোবাসা পূর্ণতা পেল।❤🧿
