Once upon a time, in a distant galaxy...

Part 1. Keep calm i'm an Alhpa!

I was twenty-year Alpha-male and the girls get wet when I was winking to them. But I didn't need a serious relationship. Why are they to me?! Dammit! I was young, handsome, very smart, purposeful. Yeah, I was awesome! Whole life ahead!

And I "pleased" girls at nights, but upset in the mornings, when i leave them for good. If one of girls asked me why I was leaving. My answer was that I am wind - I am here today, but never stops. Then it seemed to me incredibly cool! And I really did catch my buzz, because my buzz was - girls. Do not get me wrong, I have never deceived them. I never told them that I love and want to be together.

Part 2. Oops ... I got caught.

In late 2002 everything changed for me. I fell in love. She was modest, pretty and... unhappy. I still don't know what happened to me. But the wind has calmed down in my soul and gave way to a knight in shining armor.

About three years, everyday I was escorting her to college and met. I gave her gifts and we went in a cafe... I felt sad, like a dog without master, when she was not around. So, i was even bake pancakes for her! I could not recognize myself.

And then she left me.

Part 3. To hell with all of it.

What will do twenty years, who lost himself? Yeah! Get drunk! And I drank, fought ... and then drank again.

It took me about six months to recover from it. I began to feel life back and i swore to myself - never fall in love again!

Further everything was like in a pretty romantic movie.

She called me and wept, telling that she in the hospital. She was scared and lonely. She said that she loves me and wants me to come.

Part 4. Do not do it, you stupid!

After a while we got married.

As a wife she was not very good. Neither in bed, neither in the kitchen. I've coming home from work and was cooking everyday.

And guess what? I was happy. At least then I think so. Thinking about it now, it was something like a Stockholm syndrome...

I didn't receive any emotional output from her. I was supposed remove the rose-colored glasses and realize that she is don't care about me. But it happened, how it happened...

Part 5. Surprise!

One of ordinary days has become a very unusual to me.

I returned home from a work earlier than usual and found my wife in bed... naked... with another girl. If it was guy, I would well beat him! But it was a girl. Heck!

This time I left.

After about three months, she called... We talked for a long time. She told, that she married me to finally make sure that she does not need a men. She said what I'm kind, good, caring. I became stepping stone for her. That stepping stone, which helped her to know yourself.

And you know, I'm not was angry then, i don't get angry at her now, remembering it all. Because I loved her. I wished happiness for her. After all, love should not be selfishness.

A month later, we divorced.

And she was cried again... told me, that possible, she makes the biggest mistake of her life.

I wished her luck and went our separate ways... I hope she found happiness

P.S. Do not transform love into selfishness, my friends. If you love, rejoice that a loved one is happy, even if without you.
