Chick-Lit: Ladies this is for you. Trapped in love? He doesn’t want you? He says so straight? Or even worse - he does not say anything... at all? Long-distance crush sounds familiar? The author has just returned from there to tell you how it feels and to make sure you know that you are not alone! This book is meant for a good laugh over all internet relations mishaps.
From the book:
I. The Sad Part:
I’ve got nothing to offer -
the girl with the words,
over-weight, blond,
middle-aged and disturbed,
being born in Bulgaria,
in the Eastern Block.
I’ve got nothing to offer
to an American bloke.
Yet, as a banker,
he really should know
what’s wrong with the balance.
Enough with the throes!
This was the sad part.
Now let me just see
how to capture his heart
and set us both free.
II. Introduction:
For those who may not
be known to the prequel:
Ten years ago we met.
and we were equally
strangers within
a new foreign land,
both far from our homes,
both equally planted
on a new ground.
To be more precise
with places and terms -
this was in Vienna,
the Austrian turn.
At that time I was married
to a brick in the wall,
but somehow he managed
to be of use to us all.
He’s introduced us.
That’s how all began.
Eye contact was so
painful. In the end
my boy could take it
no more and he swore
his feelings, but I...
well, I wasn’t a whore.
Plus, there was something
I couldn’t ignore.
My husband - he was
a boss in the bank.
Had I just tried it,
he’d ruin and end
my boy’s career
long before time,
as revengeful and nasty
he was... I declined.
I declined the reasons,
the sparks in his glance.
I declined the offers
of the Greek foreign sands.
I declined his kisses
and his words so sincere.
Did I mentioned I’m blond?
Now I miss this to tears!
Four years later
I got divorced.
Back to Bulgaria,
to take the next course
of my life - a daily
fight for my health
as depressions hit me
under my belt.
My marriage was bad
and often it sucked
but the divorce was a living
hell on the Earth.
With my boy at that time
we still kept in touch
though I was devastated.
(Internet, thank you so much!)
But then he moved also
back to the States
and I did lose him
until ‘twas too late.
Until now...
