Time to Wake Up
After eight years together, I've proposed to my boyfriend 108 times.
Each time, he found a different excuse to turn me down.
On the 109th try, I give up a promotion and transfer opportunity. Finally, he said yes.
I think he's moved by my sincerity. But instead, he brings his first love into our marital home and falls into our bed with her.
"I only proposed to her to spite you. If you just say the word, I'll dump her at the altar and marry you instead!"
Staring at the scene before me, I take the tight engagement ring off my finger and toss it down the drain. I decide to call off the wedding before he can.
But after I walk away, the man who swore he'd marry someone else went crazy searching for me everywhere.
