Betrayed Love

"Two people, living a few hours away because of jobs, with me making the trip every week to see her. One time her dad needed her, so she had to go for the weekend. Knowing how stressed and overworked she was, I remembered how much she adored wild flowers. She gave me a call explaining her plans for that weekend."

Betrayed Love

The entire day Sunday, I was in fields gathering wild flowers. I even bought a pretty vase for them. After all that, I drove my way to her rented place, planning to leave those flowers on the porch. I hoped she would see them and be surprised when she returned home that night. But, to my surprise, her car was already parked there. A racing bike stood there along with it. And I remembered, she was never the one to hold back her noises in bed when she didn't have to.

Friend's Truth

"My best friend's telephone call gave me the news. She broke it to me gently, was careful because she knew it would cause a lot of pain. She slowly revealed the details, provided proof, and wished me a peaceful night."

Once the chat with my friend wrapped up, I immediately phoned my girlfriend at the time and filled her in on everything that had transpired. It was sort of relieving to have an answer for every justification or falsehood she attempted to throw back at me. Having this prep beforehand likely saved me from simply running back to her, probably.

"We discovered that my father was being unfaithful to my mother when the friend of my 15-year-old sister sent her a text, questioning if she was accompanying him."

When she disagreed, her companion sent back a snapshot. It was taken right there, at their usual hangout place, portraying him locking lips with a different woman. Unbelievably, despite everything, he dared to dismiss it all as untrue. Like a foolish guy, he still attempted to claim it was all false.

Side Email

An 'anonymous' email landed in my inbox, shared by someone who seemed to believe that I 'should be aware' of the fact that the guy I was involved with was also dating someone else. This email was packed full of specifics about their relationship, including several screenshot proofs. My guess is, with 99% certainty, that this email was the handiwork of his other woman who was hoping to climb the ranks from side chick to primary partner.

I kindly gave her the step up in her role and not too long after, he managed to find someone to fill the spot she previously held.
