You have a problem

I sit down
across from
you having coffee.
A friend of mine.
Who has also
been hurt in love.
How have you
been he asks?
Good I say.
Smiling, He knows
the truth.
You know he says to
me, you have a problem.
You open your heart
to quickly.
Honesty, is another
problem.
And then you have
to treat guys mean.
like you do not care.
I do?
I say .
yes, he says.
Let me tell you
what works for
me.
Never tell the truth.
Do not let them know
who you are.
Under no circumstances
do not feel anything.
Walk away and call
them 2 weeks later.
This is the secret.
I listen to my friend.
What the Hell?
I think.
Never feel, not being honest,
make someone else feel bad
about themselves for weeks?
I get up from
coffee and we hug.
Hey, I say to my
friend...you have a problem.
I do?  What is it? he smiles.
You are not human,
you might find someone this
way, but would you really
want the person who wants
you in this condition?
Not feeling
Not truthful?
I will take my problem
anytime over
yours. Mine is called
being human, and
being me.
