The (Not So) Fly Scenario:
Things were going so well. Or so I thought. But if that were really the case, then I wouldn’t have this sharp, agonizing pain in my chest right now, would I? She dropped by my place tonight, and what was initially supposed to be a romantic evening, turned really bad—really fast.

Halfway through our night, I became so overwhelmed by my appreciation for her, that I grabbed her by the hands, and promised that I would either give her the world one day, or die trying.

She looked away…

When she turned back to me, her eyes were watery, and I knew something was wrong. She told me that as much as it hurt her to say it; she was still in love with another man.

Damn…

She continued on by telling me that even though he could never come close to treating her as well I could; she still couldn’t ignore her heart’s gravitational pull towards him.

F*ck…

How am I supposed to pick up the pieces after this one? My mother told me days like this were bound to come, but I didn’t expect it to get this bad.

I need a drink…

Now if you don’t mind, I’d like to have a bit of privacy so I can figure things out. In the meantime, listen to Jazmine Sullivan’s take on the whole situation while you answer today’s question.

The Question:
Have you ever met someone who was perfect for you, but you just couldn’t let go of the past? Did you end up kicking yourself after it was all said and done, and Mr. or Ms. Right had passed you by?
