A Man I Know Bragged About This

I don’t know if he was stupid, insecure, or arrogant

I don’t know where to begin. How do you think you know someone? But not know them? It’s not pretty. I finally digested the guy I knew wasn’t who I thought he was.

I reconciled with it.

But the story got worse.

I thought he was a good guy. I thought he was just a private person. Neither was true. He wasn’t private. He was doing things he didn’t want other people to know about.

He talked about everyone.

I chalked it up to not being happy.

Even when it irritated me.

The things that got back to me weren’t true. Especially what he said about me. I dismissed it. I truly thought he had a lot on his plate and wasn’t happy.

I thought the best of him.

I was wrong.

It shocks me.

He was arrogant. He thought he was smarter than everyone. I don’t know if it was a game to him, or if his insecurities drove him. Or if he was simply reckless.

Suffice it to say he was seeing multiple women at once.

Don’t worry.
