The greatest comeback story

I like to say that revenge is a dish best served cold, especially to those loved ones we ones trusted and now despise. We have all been in that situation, girl meets boy, girl falls in love with boy, boy leaves girl, girl is horrified, then girl seeks to gain some sort of satisfaction through the ancient art of revenge. But the most interesting part about the idea of revenge is it never gets old, woman of all ages do it in some form or another. I for example, like my mother have been doing it my entire life.

I remember so fondly the first boy who truly broke my heart. We met outside of a movie theatre, our eyes met and I was instantly hooked. Probably more smitten than he was, as 14 year old girls often come on stronger than 14 year old guys . As the weeks went on my attraction grew for his fellow, we went to movies together went shopping together, he even bought me a present for Valentines Day consisting of chocolates, flowers and a beautiful necklace.

Well one day I was chatting with my friend about how great this guy was and I mentioned his name in passing. She mentioned that she had met a guy with the same name online and he had also bought her nice gifts. She pulled out a picture of him and my heart skipped a beat she had in her wallet a picture of my boyfriend. We were both flustered with rage as we thought of a brilliant little plan to make him pay.

She had plans with him after school that day but to his surprise he would run into me first, and I would talk to him re sighting casually the sweet little nothings that he had whispered in my friends’ ear the night before. When I ran’ into him at the pool hall and started stating his pick up lines back to him he looked absolutely shocked. Then I left, explaining that I had to go and I was only at the pool hall because my older sister had arranged to meet me there so I could get a ride home. His original date never showed up, and neither of us answered his phone calls again. We presumed he was smart enough to put two and two together and figure out that we had found out and wanted nothing to do with him, but if not the sheer look resembling a kid caught in the cookie jar was priceless.
