I was ready to put my heart out there
Not hide behind the walls like I normally do
But jump in with both feet, fears aside
And all this would be for you
I wanted to listen to what you said
Trusting on what I would feel
Ignoring those little seeds of doubt
Knowing that this might be real
We had so much in common
Coincidental though it seemed
Should have known, no two are that alike
Just an additional part of your scheme
Promised calls that never came
Emails that remained unanswered
The planned meet that never was
Phony excuses casually uttered
And I believed, because I wanted to
It was my time, it was my chance
Your words fit me like a glove
It was my turn to dance
We may have matched like salt and pepper
Our differences were far and few
The beat of your heart was mine
And all this would be for you

He sure missed out Angie, great poem full of emotion and heart break , but there is always some one for everyone, just around the corner, when you aren't looking, take care.
Thanks Elsie, this one really had me fooled, not sure what would have happened if we would have met but maybe he really didn't intend to meet. Think maybe I've had enough looking for a while.
His loss
Reminds me of the movie I watched recently called "He's Just Not That Into You." There's a book, too. Well done, Angie. We have ALL been there, so this has universal appeal.
Thank you for posting to our group.
Heartbreaking. Dating sure seems to be a brutal world these days.
Thank you all for your kind words, even though I had never met Tom, we chatted or emailed daily, I even emailed him while at work (oops, never had done tha before) and I still miss him, this Tom but not the one who bashed me totally at the end. Yes, dating is very difficult today.
Very beautiful. I have a friend that was duped online and her heart was shattered.
Sad.
In the end, you'll look back and be glad that you didn't meet this loser, because you're way too good for him and he apparently, either couldn't go through with the meeting or knew you'd see through him IF you met. YES, definitely HIS loss.
There's someone for you out there, that will be honest, loving and caring and will want to meet you so badly... when it's time, you'll know.
