Used And Abused

A personal story in the experience: I Was Used By a Woman
G reetings,

   After my wife passed away. i met another woman who was living alone with her child. she had told me she was seperated from her boyfriend. He was gone and doubted he'd be back.  i actually was doing rather well for myself and tried to help her as much as I could. She told me one day.  Her daughter came into town and had no place to live.. I had an empty home, as i was now living with her. I was asked if they could move into my place for a week or so.

  I didn't even question it . I just said okay and let them move in.  I payed there cable, water, electric bill. i received nothing in return but heartache. i could not get them out. they stayed there about eight months. In this time. a knock came at my girls door and it was her ex..He said, he only came to see his son as it was near Thanksgiving. He asked to stay for two weeks. Well, its been two years that we all have lived together and guess what..He never left.

  It came all of a sudden. She was asking me to bring boxes to pack some stuff up. i did and finally said..Are you moving out? without boring you all..she never actually told me yes, but I had to pry it out and it seems the ex and her are moving into there own place and i'm not invited....Let me now explain..i ran my business into the ground worring myself to death what they were doing while I was not there. i could not function these last twelve months and lost it all.  i have a good skill and can make good money, but i stopped paying all her bills and guess they were just out to use me for all they could get..

 The money stopped and I guess they said we might as well dumb him cause hes not doing us any good..This is how I take it. i lost my love of my life  and she could care less. She still tells me to get a place close by her. i can only guess so i can buy her cigarettes and perfume. i have news for her. i'm moving out of town. i have saved my money and can go anywhere i want and start over..I'm 52 now and single once again..I'm really depressed with this situation and do not understand how someone could do this without telling me in advance.

I am so sorry about what happened to you. I hope you realize that being a good person is never wrong. You seem to have a big heart and she took advantage of that. Everything that happens to us, even the bad things, teach us something. This should teach you to be more prudent the next time you meet someone. My hope for you is that you regain everything that you've lost....including trust.

Like the woman from the Euryrhymics said: 'some of them want to use you, some of them want to get used by you, some of them want to abuse you - some of them want to be abused'

I can only say to the second poster:
"The cold wind of hope, blows eternally"
