Oh, duh, I wasn't reading correctly. But that's pretty neat! It's been since last Dec. when we met each other, and since then, I've been helping him on my personal quest to recover his memory.
We discovered who each other is today. His soul was split in two after his death, I was born as his Earth half, and he came and found me. So I guess I've not always been here. However, I still remain as my own person, and he as well.
