The Promise I Am Keeping

This is a promise I intend to keep. Staying away from cheaters, men who don’t mean what they say, and the losers! There’s the door, out you go!

I started on a journey early last year or maybe even earlier. I needed to find out what makes me gravitate to the same type of men. The no-good, lying, two-timers! It seems like I am a heat-seeking missile where these types are concerned. I always find them!

One thing I found about this type of behavior is that we go for what we are accustomed to. Perhaps, it is the familiarity or the comfort they bring, not in a good way but it is comfortable nonetheless. I’ve veered away from such people and I run, not walk, when I see one approaching. This journey I am on has taught me many things about myself. One is that I am too nice where these afore-mentioned types are concerned. Shut the door and MOVE ON is my motto now.

I am keeping to that promise, it’s not easy but so far so good. They do come out of the woodwork where I’m concerned. I must have a sign on my forehead that says, “Here I am. I’m willing to accept your cheating excuses!” Not anymore.

Cheaters get lost! You no longer have the power that you used to have. Bad boy behavior is no longer a turn-on. It is an absolute no-go.
