All my life i have always had the same point of reference when it comes to the fairer sex , women in general i might add. You would ask me what is this reference i do speak about ....? It is my first contact with Love , thats what i thought it was anyway at the time as it shaped my future encounters with women.So many females will read this and say ...... NOT ALL OF US ARE LIKE THAT OR I WOULD NEVER DO SUCH A THING.
I had a girlfriend i dated 14 to 13 years ago and this lady was my girlfriend for almost 2 years. We were inseparable me and her , if i was somewhere she would be with me or if i went somewhere without her people would be like ... here is SO n SO who is dating So n So . Even when one of us was away from the other, people still saw us together. We were like twins, me and this girl ( my other Half as i would say at the time ) . The thing about us was that we had been dating for almost two whole years but not once did we ever have sex. We just kissed and touched one another there and there , I'm sure you know what i mean. My friends use to ask me why i wasn't having sex with her and i would say " No, we in no rush because we love each other and we will wait for when the time is right " that was me being naive and all. They would say ( my friends that is ) you must be mad because she will meet some guy who will sleep with her in a day after meeting her and i would say " you okes are crazy Matilda loves me and she would never do such " ... damn was i wrong.
Things changed between me and Matilda when me and my friend Brian decided to visit a mutual friend we had at his house which was in an area called Thembani in the outskirts of Cape Town. We had to take a Bus to see our mutual friend Eric , it was a friday afternoon after we had all comeback from school. We got off the bus and started walking to Eric's residents , as we were walking we were talking about how cool Eric was that, at that age he had his own room outside his house ( which we called iFlat ) an when it came to the ladies he had no competition. To us Eric was a living legend anyway we got to Eric's house and knocked on his Room door and waited for his reply .... after a minute or so, Eric comes out of his room with a big smile greeting us and telling us that , what a lovely surprise that we had come to visit him. Then after all the pleasantry he tells us to wait abit because he had a girl in his Glorious pad , as we were waiting for him to come out, me and Brian were talking ,wondering who he had in his room this time?! ... as we were talking Eric comes out saying lets wait for the girl because she was still getting dressed inside. So i asked him who is it this time and he was so nonchalant in his reply, which made him sound even cooler he said its just a girl he had met last week in claremont and we were like wow and you already screwing her, amazing here we had a legend of our time while he was still speaking the female came out , to my Horror it was my Girlfriend of two years my Matilda , my better half the Female i was waiting for to be ready and the weird part of the whole thing is that nun of us said anything , Me , Brian and Matilda played along like we did not know one another. So she walks out and Eric is like lets walk her to the bus stop and so we did , on our way there Eric was talking non-stop and we were all listening to him , when i do think about it, i think we were all shocked. We got to the bus stop she got a bus home, we chilled with Eric a bit and also left for home. When i got home i ate my supper and thought of what had just happened and yes i was angry , yes i shed a tear for that girl, it was painful to find out that people are cruel out there. In the morning i woke up went to my friends and i was getting the we told you so look from my friends ( this idiot Brian told everyone ) .... the great thing about it all is that we laughed about it which made it a bit better , i am not saying that the pain stopped but them ( my friends ) making fun of me made the pain bearable. While still hanging with my friends my soon to be ex girlfriends cousin comes to me giving me a letter and I'm like whats this and she says its a letter from Matilda saying she is sorry and I'm like ok. I left my friends and went home to read the letter ... all the letter said was how sorry she was and she would never do that again ... all i was sorry about was her poor grammar , punctuation and spelling in the letter.I called her the same day telling her we could never be and she had betrayed me because i loved her. That was that me and my better half were no longer together two years down the drain because she couldn't be faithful.
So after this unfortunate incident in my life i decided i should be weary or be more careful when it comes to the fairer sex. I believe not all women are the same but 99.9 % of them are the same if i use my point of reference when i look at them. Now ask yourself how would you be towards the gender that caused you what i went through ....... ?
