The Six-Year Deception: I Sent My Cheating Ex Behind Bars

In the six years I was with my boyfriend, I never received a single flower.

He always said, "We’re basically an old married couple. We don't need all that fake romantic nonsense."

So there were no gifts on Valentine’s Day, no cake on my birthdays, and his so-called proposal was just an offhand remark: "Maybe we should just go down to the courthouse and sign the papers."

I comforted myself by thinking he was just pragmatic, a man built for real life.

Today was our sixth anniversary. I took a half-day off from work to surprise him.
