Burning of the Internal Flame II

When the man finds his true love, you will wonder what went wrong. All the conversations you both had and all the videos you shared with one another will be a constant treadmill in your thoughts. The love he had for you was strong, and you treated it as a weakness. What you want in life will only come to fruition, but it will be at a deadly cost. What you want is not the need you must have for success in your marriage and with your children. You can't worry about the past and project it onto all of your relationships. The man has kept a careful watch on you and realizes that he would always be second and third to your heart. You are not worth his time, nor is it worth his time to have any relationship with you. This is goodbye to the man who wanted you to be his rib, to have his heart, to have a ring on your left ring finger, and to be the mother of his children.
