Let me share
to you an online dating story e-mailed to me by one of my colleague, some of
the information was edited to keep the person’s identity.
The story is
about online dating gone wrong, but will give you an ending that will surely
going to give all of us a great lesson.
Kristie is a
late 30’s single woman who is very independent yet still believes in wonderful
ending of a love story. Kristie would always want to have an ideal boyfriend or
lover who could treat her right, because Kristie was having a hard time getting
over an ex-boyfriend of 15 years. One night when she is checking something over
the internet, she was able to browse her way to an online dating site. She joined
the chat room and eventually a guy named, Ted buzz into her to get her
attention.
Ted lives in
the neighboring state as indicated in his profile, and from the course of their
chatting, Kristie and Ted hit it off immediately so they chat almost everyday
but with an inconsistent timing because Ted is working as a manager in a hotel.
Ted gave Kristie his mobile number because it is the easiest way she can reach
him and the phone number at work, wherein Ted stays more hours than his home.
It seems that surprises never stops until Ted finally invited Kristie for a
dinner.
They have
their dinner in a cozy Tex-Mex restaurant, at first they seated opposite with
each other but then Ted requested Kristie to seat beside her because sitting
opposite to her seem to far for him. As soon as they were seated together Ted
kissed her by surprise and stare like she was the only beautiful lady inside the
restaurant. The dinner went out well and it is really an intimate one. Until
they reached his car in the parking lot, Ted told Kristie that she was the most
wonderful that ever happened to him and that he is starting to fall for her.
Kristie being in a post break-up with the long time boyfriend is a very
vulnerable and very hopeless romantic, would have wanted this magical moment to
last.
After that
first encounter, there were more dates followed, a most of it is an intimate
one. They ended up always making love after each date. A very passionate love
with a very romantic man who would always say I love you to Kristie, who wouldn’t
fall for that kind of man?
Then one day,
Ted emailed Kristie, confiding that he is actually a married guy. He told her
that he could want everything about them to last and would still want to go on
with the relationship. But he cannot leave her wife because the wife swears to
take away the child from Ted, and Ted said he cannot live without the kids. So he
let the choice befell on the weight of Kristie’s shoulder. Ted even told her
that he swear never to touch his wife if Kristie will agree to be her mistress.
With a mail like that Kristie could only say “How could you lie to me like
that? I don’t want to see you ever again!”
That was the
last conversation they have, after that, Kristie still find Ted joining
different chat room in the same dating site. Kristie found Ted really a
terrible liar and a cheater. She wonder how could a man like can manage to look
in the mirror and lie over and over again. But Kristie thought that it is
better to know about the lies and deceit after just a couple of months rather
than go far longer a relationship that is built on lies.
