True Lies

One thing about men! They’re so good in telling lies. I’m not saying I never lied my whole life though. They’re so good at it that it convinced women with all their heart, like selling a fridge to an eskimo! Married men can be so good in hiding their marital status just to satisfy their greed. I have to admit that we men are greedy, being a man myself. But how we manage it, that’s entirely up to each and everyone of us.

I’d like to share a story of my friend Zara, at the same time this is her debut in this blog. She’s been in a very steady relationship with a guy for the past few months. This guy used to be her schooldays boyfriend and their love rekindled after years of losing contact. So yea, when everything seems to work fine and dandy, things turned out to be an anticlimax. A woman called Zara using the guy’s number, I do not know what exactly was the conversation but bottomline is that the woman claimed to be the guy’s wife and asked what’s Zara’s relationship with her husband.

I’m sure by this time, Zara must have had the shock of her life, her head must have been heavy like a dark sky suddenly fell upon her. Zara told the lady that she and the guy were just friends. Zara could have told her the truth and subsequently ruining the guy’s family, which frankly, I think he well deserve it! But I know Zara is not that mean. And that prick, as if he never had a deep impact on Zara’s heart, he later sent a text which sounded something like,

“Thanks for the help, I think we should end everything between us coz I don’t want to lose my wife. Sorry syg.”

Something like that, I don’t really remember the exact words though, but WTF! It sounded irresponsible, heartbreaking, unmanly, cowardly, you name it. Saving his own arse at the expense of Zara’s shattered heart. She was driving when it all happened and she had to pull over by the road side and cried and cried and cried. When she told me what had happened, I felt like beating up that prick for what he did. But naah, violence will lead to worse things, after all I am sure, sooner or later, he won’t get away just like that.

For the last few months, this is not the first time I heard similar storylines, or at least something close to it. And it happened to my close girl friends, last year it happened to Fizz who found out her guy was about to get married. With her patience, now she’s a happy girl, I’ll let her talk about it in this blog. Few weeks back, Cute Little Hana’s boyfriend suddenly left her without notice until her mum saw the prick with another girl, which obviously answered everything.

I’m just glad that Zara, Fizz and Cute Little Hana are strong women.
