Boyfriend Woes
I really am not too keen on travel, but I didn’t have a choice this time. I had just dumped Dave, my boyfriend of two years. To cheer me up, my friends suggested we travel to the Caribbean. Well, I knew what they were up to; I guess they thought I’d probably find someone else out here. Little did they know that I was a loser-magnet, I just manage to attract all the wrong ones.
Dino, my first boyfriend in high-school was dating my best friend at the same time as me. Can you imagine my shock and horror when I saw them together at the movies? I dumped him before he could say Jack Robinson. Of course Tina is no longer my best friend after that.
The next one, Frank, was no better. I guess his name’s the only thing he was frank about, he was a compulsive liar. I learnt about it much later, and the final straw on the camel’s back was his arrest for drunken driving. After that, I didn’t really want to drive into the sunset with him.
And now Dave. Can you imagine we were together for almost two long years and I didn’t know he was already married. At first I really believed him when he said he was working late or had to travel because the job demanded it. The flimsy excuses and long absences started getting to me after a while. Made a few inquiries and realized that he was happily married and had a kid. It was time to say goodbye to Dave as well. Not a very happy ending I would say.vacation
Here I am in the Caribbean. My friends say that the cute bartender has been giving me the looks since we got here a couple of days ago. Must say it really cheers me up, maybe my travel to the Caribbean may not be as uneventful as I predict it to be - a holiday romance in the offing perhaps?
