Valentine's Day

On Valentine’s Day, we had pizza

But I paid for myself, no grand gesture

I begged for your time, but you were busy

You chose Netflix and Chill, left me feeling dizzy

You spent the night with someone not me

No regard for the day, no thought for my plea

Alone, I now spend this special day

Pampering myself, trying to wash the pain away

But I’ll never forget what you did

On a day meant for love, you just slid

I’ll move on and find my own way

But the memory of that day will always stay

First of all, I had to convince my now ex-fiance to even go out to eat with my son and I on Valentine's Day. We ate at Pizza Hut, back when it was still cool to eat in the restaurant. I had tickets, front row, to WWE for him. He didn't offer to pay. I paid for myself and my son. I asked him if he was coming over, and he said he was busy.

I spent the day miserable, and I couldn't see that my son and myself were all that I needed and wanted. Once I found out he was cheating on me, which was many months after this, I found out he also cheated on me on this very day, on Valentines' Day. I pulled what I call a, "(Name Removed-my mother's name). I listed his WWE tickets for sale on Craigslist, with a description about how my boyfriend (we were not engaged yet. I know, I know...) decided not to get me anything for Valentine's Day and also decided not to spend the day with me. What's the best price someone can offer? Then I took a screenshot, and I sent it to him.

As this post is actually written on 07/19/2024, I never forget on Valentine's Day what happened. I never forget how I felt, and I will never, EVER forgive myself for choosing such a piece of shit cheater and abuser over my son, who didn't like him at all.
