In SIX WORDS or fewer, write a story about why you left your first lover.

She still loved her boyfriend.

I turned 18. She didn’t.

He was toxic in every way

I wasn’t straight enough for her

Well, the second one came along.

You can’t have us both.

He mentioned cubic zirconia.

He had too much baggage.

I thought I’d had enough practice.

He was a jerk. Nuff said.

Then the real one came along.

I craved new things, new people

His radiation treatments became too much.

I don’t know how to love.

Pursued with a meat cleaver.

Betrayal can never be forgiven.

He was hiding he was gay.

Who doesn’t like Duran Duran?! RIGHT?!?!?!

He stopped loving me
