Every girl wishes to have a guy like her SO MUCH that he opens up his heart with an outpouring of love and writes a song for her. Be careful what you wish for ;)

It was Valentine’s day 1996. I had been dating a guy for a few months now, and really liked him a lot. I was under the impression that things were going really well…until I got my “gift”. It was a home made video tape (yeah VHS baby lol). He handed it to me with a smile from cheek to cheek. His exact words were “this is a little something I made, to express my feelings for you”. I was so excited. I couldn’t wait to get home and watch it.

It’s now 4pm, i’m home from school and anxious to watch the tape. I pop it in the vcr, press play and see my guy on the screen with a guitar in hand. He had written a song for me. I was waiting for him to say he loved me, or he couldn’t imagine life without me. Instead, I got the worst breakup of my life. There was MY guy, singing about how he’d been seeing another girl and never really cared for me. If I recall, the chorus was something like “she’s hotter then you, I want her real bad and.i’m sure right now you’re probably mad. You’ll wanna scream you’ll wanna cry but this is how i’m saying….goodbye”. Obviously I was crushed, but everything happens for a reason. He’s now 29 years old and still living with his mom. No job, no life. Who’s the one crying now???!! HAHAHAHA
