Telling me you love me

Saying you wish you could have my child

Holding me close and looking into my eyes

Telling me these lies

Making me think I was someone special

But all I was is a woman who listened to your lies

Believe every word you said

Felt she could fall in love again

But at the end found out it was just a man

That played her this whole time with his kind words and charm

Then she found out the terrible truth

He was not single not even divorced or separated

but still married

How could she be so naïve?

All the clues were there

The whispering while on the phone with her

The late nights at work

The excuses of not going on day trips or gong to his property for a weekend getaway even after months of asking her to go and the making excuses of why he couldn’t.

So one night!

She got online, and found the truth

the whole time, it was there staring her in the face his name next to hers showing they share a deed on a house,

Marriage record shows still married no legal documents showing any kind of split

Tears running down her face of shock and ready to set him on fire for all his lies and betrayal

Instead she decided to play his game after a couple months and wrote a letter to his wife and sent it to her anonymously

Of what he’s been up too

Finally the final night he told me the truth

The next day I asked him if his wife knew he was dating

He exploded with anger and told me to not contact him again he had a fire drill he had to put out at work is what he said,

But believe it or not!!

She may have gotten the letter that same day.

I asked this simple question

which set him out into a

Narcissistic Rage

Dealing with a Narcissist and their behaviors:

finally caught up to him and she wins this game

Of betrayal

heartbreak
