the ones that got away

I've noticed that the men I've dated have all been assholes in one way or another. Maybe they aren't really assholes, but it certainly felt like they were after they took their exit.I was too blinded by my emotions to see that each one of them has hurt me in one way or another.

1. He was the first guy that I had a crush on while in college. He was sweet to me. He made me laugh. He always wanted to find time to talk to me. But he never made a move or made a distinctive point to ask me out. The asshole who led me on.
2. He made promises. He declared his affection for me. He devoted his time to care for me. He graduated and move away. He had wandering eyes. The asshole who cheated on me.
3. He just wanted to stay in. He never came to pick me up for a date...I always went to his place. He'd call when he was horny. The asshole who used me for sex.
4. He pursued me. He wanted to see me again. He enjoyed our conversations. He called me "gorgeous." He lives a 40-minute bus ride away. The asshole who just wasn't interested.
5. He thought I was a good dancer. He was attracted me the moment he met me. The asshole who doesn't call.
6. He was a self-proclaimed romantic. He loves movies. He would die for his friends. He bought my plane ticket. He asked me to the Ball. He wished for "the One." He romanced me. He told me I was beautiful. He started to doubt the relationship would work. He wasn't willing to fight for me. The asshole who broke my heart.
