Who, In Your Life, Turned Out Not To Be The Person You Thought They Were?
She mirrored me perfectly, and I fell for it.
I met this girl.
She seemed to live a spiritual life, looking for growth. She said she did yoga, practiced mindfulness, and was divorced two years from an abusive marriage. She was looking for someone on the same path.
Well, I was two years divorced, working on my spirituality and self-awareness, it felt like the perfect match!
We laughed a shit load. We took little trips, we both loved goats, we both liked to cook, we both loved fun socks, both vegetarian, we were both very insecure, we loved being in each other’s company. We talked of marriage, starting an AirBnB, getting goats, having yoga and breakfast and lunch at our BnB.
One little thing she forgot to tell me, she likes to lie, and I mean A LOT. Actually, I don’t think she can help herself.
She was never divorced, nor was she single. Who knows how many others she had? I know of 3.
Without getting into the messy details, it was a train wreck that she calls “mistakes!”
A mistake is putting three eggs in a recipe that calls for 2 — not juggling three guys and taking on a 4th!
