Story #6. Army guy #2. He was amazing. I’d met him on my travels. He was transferring bases soon. He’d been twice divorced (twice cheated on). I could understand him. I’d never had a connection with anyone how I’d had with him. On Every level. Emotional, mental, physical. We had all the same thoughts and opinions about every political aspect. And yet, we had a variety of different interests. He was fun. He was romantic. He even drove out to visit me for 2 week! He shoveled snow in my driveway while I was away. A true sweetheart.

It was a fairytale romance straight out of a Disney movie. I wanted to keep him forever. Lucky for me his exes weren’t good enough for him.

But at the end of the second week, he broke up wit me when he was leaving- for the same reason the last story’s guy did. He was still emotionally struggling getting over his last divorce.

He transferred bases. I contacted him a couple times after that. But he told me to get myself out there and I would find a great guy. That told me he wasn’t interested no matter what.

Well, I have put myself out there. No luck yet.

A few years later, I was in his area and he super liked me on Tinder! I super liked him back and sent him a message, to which he never responded... and never deleted me. Nothing could have made me feel worse. Dude, move on.
