I'm pretty devastated. I have secretly been in this
relationship...well, an affair based on, um, finances you could say.
I've been seeing someone for many years and now it's over...as I know
it. It's all because of this stupid economy. Money causes so many
problems in relationships. We all know that. Anyway, I'd been seeing
this guy for several years. I never got to go to his place. He'd always
come to me, so... Anyway, every time I'd hear him pulling up to my apt
building I would run to greet him at my door, sometimes from the balcony, with great anticipation.
We saw each other almost everyday for weeks, months on end. We both
relocated from foreign lands - he's from Mexico and I'm from Ohio - so
holidays were when we needed and saw each other the most...and then we'd
take a break. We never lost touch, though. Sometimes we spent more time
in each others' company than others. But a couple of years ago it kind
of cooled off. I had lost my job. We still saw one another on occasion and he was always so
sweet and giving, but sometimes he'd act like he didn't have anything
for me anymore. Well, today I saw him. I approached him and told him
that I didn't like not seeing him the way I used to and he blamed me.
And then he informed me he's back with his wife and they just found out
she's expecting. CAN YOU BELIEVE IT? AND THEY PLANNED IT! What could I
say?
I wanted to explain to him that it's not my fault that the economy took
the turn it did and kept me from shopping online as much as I used to
do. What I wouldn't give to go on Dooney & Bourkes clearance, or QVC
and HSN online and just GO CRAZY...but I can't afford to do that
anymore. So he has no reason to come see me anymore. The UPS man.
Joaquin, I miss you. I hope before I leave this apartment you and I can
rekindle what we once had.
