The dance was a signifing moment in my life.
One that would forever change me.
I contemplated going, went back and forth.
I finally fell for what you said.
I went into the dance happy and excited.
I left the dance hurt and sad.
You called me 2 hours later and said it was a
    mistake, that we belonged together.
I thought my life was complete agian.
Went on a week with a great feeling.
But three weeks later I found you in bed with
    another girl.
The strageness of this matter it that I truly
    believed that she had made you do this.
And that I was your true love.
Until another week passed and logic started to
    seep into my head.
I started feeling distant and far away from your
    love.
I walked into the next dance sad and empty.
But after five short minutes I am dancing and having
    a good time, now safe from your pain and free.

Glad to hear your beyond the pain and FREE!
You told the story well and I like the ending.  Too bad that some guys are that way, (not all I hope), just keep your eyes open and don't give away your heart too easily.
Thanks for the e-mail.  Continue writing!
Danny
