By day five she was really worried. She finally got a text that said:
I made it. See you when I get back babe
Huh??!! *scooby doo side eye* To say she was upset was an understatement. Mind you they had been dating for eight months. She was used to talking to AND seeing him almost everyday. He goes to California which is another coast but not another freakin planet, and he seems to have forgot about her. They have phones, and these remarkable machines called computers that have this cool feature that allows you to communicate with loved ones all over the world!

It took everything in me to stop her from booking a flight and going to Cali to hunt him down. After I calmed her down with a big bottle of Moscato she expressed a few concerns. It seems Mr. MIA had been distant and acting strange the last few weeks before he left, she also noticed he was talking to a chick on facebook quite a bit. Did I mention the chick just so happened to live in Cali?! Things that make you go hmmmm!
I know people say what you don't know won't hurt you, but I completely disagree...KNOWLEDGE IS POWER! So we did a little detective work and after talking to the chick on facebook Kerry discovered that her man was not only in Cali with another woman but he was staying with her. It seems they had been dating for TWO YEARS long distance! He'd proposed to her the day that he arrived and she was making plans to move to the A by January!!! When she confronted the a-hole about it he admitted that it was true. It took lots of Kleenex, drank, time, and more drank for Kerry's poor heart to heal. After a late night visit to his home she bust the windows out of both his cars.....I bust the windows out your car! *singing like Jazmine Sullivan* There's something about revenge that's so sweet, it seemed to really make her feel better! So there you have it this is what happened to Kerry when she allowed herself to fall for the L word.
To all of you optimist out there I'm not anti-love, I'm pro-precaution. I believe love is the greatest thing in the world! I know that every relationship doesn't end in heartbreak and pain, and I also know that there are some people that can be trusted and are capable of true love. But in Miss Jackson's book of definitions the L word is described as such:
L word \BEWARE! PROCEED WITH EXTREME CAUTION!!!\ 1: A gamble 3: can be extremely beautiful or completely horrid 2: If your not willing to gamble with your heart RUNNNNNNN!!!!
There's nothing wrong with guarding your heart, if he/she is truly worthy they will be patient and prove they deserve your trust and L word!
