Do you think that he loves you
cause he calls out your name
It is your imagination
that his fire has a flame

It burns on lies and deception
and that oh so perfect smile
clouding your common sense
with his charm and guile

For he has been loving another
Her name he calls out too
Which one does he love most
Could it be me or could it be you

Or does it really matter
Who wins or losses now
His smile isn't so perfect
The loss not so great somehow

So I'll take my leave
I'm not interested in this game
My common sense is calling
Listen when he calls your name

Maybe you'll hear it too
In the inflection of his tone
Or see it in  his smile
Me? I'd rather be alone

I'd leave too. Without honesty the whole relationship would go down the drain. He sounds like a real two-timer. I hope she also sees it as you have.

Brava!  I went through this in a way a while back.  It's definitely not worth sticking with someone who wants to spread himself around.  You've written this very well indeed!

Oh, I hate when this happens to a good person.  That trust level just dissapears!  I hope this guy didn't damage you too much...just remember that we all still care to listen, even though he's playing the field.  Don't give up on love though, it comes to you when you least expect it!

Yep happened to me too and I never looked back. So good on you girl

Life has got to chnage,
Nothing stays the same,
Soon it will be time,
For me to move on.

yes, you are right of course (if you are looking for a lasting relationship)...I wrote a piece some time back called "Bitter Lessons" which deals with this subject.nice read..

I am not always lonely even if I am always alone
