From Him

Heartbroken I guess I was wrong. I'm a total fool. My love for you was so strong. How could I have ever loved you? You said he was no one. You had no idea who he is. Well, it's obvious he's someone. With him, I knew what you did. I gave you all my love. You'll never know how much I cared. My life just fell apart. This pain I just can't bare. I've been through this before. Though it hadn't been with you. I never thought you'd do this. I always thought you would be true. Now I must live my life without you. Together we'll never be. For you've found someone new. And no longer need me. 12 10 1997 From " his " point of view.

Hi Debbie , great emotional write , I have always lived my life with two things on my mind for self protection ' I only have control of my actions and my thoughts ' everything else in life is not for me to control :)))) hugs

Debbie, no one deserves to be dumped on, over insecurities. However I hope you are over him. I can go on about this subject, but I will stop here. You might not want to hear this! You are better without him. Specifically since you noted that he found some one so quickly. ~SKAT~

Must have been an awful experience for you till the truth sank in. Hard to know someone else completely I think which always causes problems. So sad,and recovery takes its own sweet time.
