I'm just going to come out with it and say exactly what it is that I've been focusing on besides the usual death, love, abortion, politics of my poetry. My ex-boyfriend of three years left me last July and admitted he'd been cheating on me for 4 months (well he said a few weeks, found out it was four months). He left me for her. He left me and was engaged to her less then 2 months later, and less then five months later -- they were married. Her second marriage, divorced at 22 and remarried at 23...ugh. Anyhow, since he lied to me and never told me sorry, ever, even though I didn't do anything wrong -- I just can't get over my anger and hatred. I live near them and we live in a smaller city, so it drives me nuts. I can't talk to friends/family anymore because they're totally sick of hearing about the two of these people.

Did I mention I'm happily engaged and getting married next June myself?

WHY AM I SO ANGRY WITH THIS GUY?!! UGH.
