This is a story about a girl I used to know 15 years ago.
She was a wedding singer and a lovely young lady.
We met online but we weren't a match..... alas she wasn't my type.
However, we remained good friends for several years.

During the first year we knew each other we were particularly good friends and we hung out several times a week.
As it turned out I had a recently stopped hanging out with one of my best friends because I had found out that he was kind of despicable in some of the things that had been doing.
I decided that he was toxic and not someone that I wanted to continue to know well.
I told this particular girl all about it and she seemed curious about him but also told me that it's good that I got away from someone who was so bad for me.
Months after telling her this I received a phone call from that friend. He wanted to make amends.
Being the forgiving type I decided I would go ahead and try to reconcile with him.

He started hanging out at my place quite often and she would hang out there as well.
I had told her again and again and again that his main MO was hurting women.
He would meet some young lady, have her fall in love with him, and then he would sleep with her, lie to her, string her along etc.....
She told me....
"Yeah well I think he's a really great guy."
Even after everything I already told her she was over here saying he's a really great guy....... even though he had literally cheated on every single woman had ever gone out with, and lied, and stolen from them.
So what ultimately happened?
He ended up stealing a lot of the equipment that she used for singing by saying that he lost it.
She then found a bunch of notes that he had written that said all kinds of terrible things about her.

He broke her heart exactly like I said that he would.
The weird thing is that he had always broken everyone's heart every single time so there was no possible way that he wouldn't break hers.
The crazy thing is that we spent so many nights talking about it and talking about how toxic he was and yet she jumped right into his arms immediately.
I don't really hang out with that guy anymore and I haven't seen her in a good 8 years.
It always struck me as strange that she didn't take my advice at all and instead decided that she would go ahead and crash into the wall despite the fact that I told her that it was there.
You can never tell anyone anything. They have to find out for themselves.
