What’s one thing you know now that would have saved your younger self a lot of pain?
[ The Thing That Would Have Saved You Alot Of Pain Would Be Really Listen To Your Gut ]
[ If She Is Going To Cheat On You From The Start & Your Gut Feels She Will Do It Again, You Should Have Listened To Your Gut ]

[ One Day You Were Told This … “People Don’t Abandon The People They Love, Only The People They Are Done Using” ]
[ This Is Not You Accusing ]
[ This Is You Saying That You Are Tired Of The Abusing ]
[ For So Many Years She Said That Everything Bad That Has Happened Was Your Fault ]
[ (30yrs) Of That Sure Did Stick In Your Memory Vault ]
[ For All Of Those Years You Carried Alot Of Shame ]
[ Because She Always Had Her Finger Out ]
[ Pointing @ You To Blame ]
[ There Was Very Little Doubt ]
[ Pointing Her Finger @ You Was Her Favorite Game ]
[ She Got Good @ This Game Like Sharpening A Knife ]
[ When You Made Her Your Wife ]
[ You Did Not Ever Imagine That You Were Going To Waste Over (30yrs) Of Your Life ]
[ Maybe Way Back Then You Looked Ripe ]
[ To Be Used By Her Type ]
[ You Never Had A Gripe ]
[ Listening To The Hype ]
[ You Always Thought Your Future Was Set ]
[ But She Did Alot That Was Very Hard To Forget ]
[ You Always Thought That You Were Going Against Her Families Bet ]
[ After All Of Those Years You Grew Tired Of Being Treated Like A Pet ]
[ You Always Felt Certain ]
[ That She Wanted To Hide You Behind A Dark Curtain ]
[ She Seemed To Have The Itch ]
[ To Look @ You To Say, “Get Behind The Curtain, Bitch!” ]
[ She Always Needed To Be Out Front & Center ]
[ But Then She Put Up A Big Sign, “Do Not Enter!” ]
[ She Was The Driver Of The Car ]
[ & You Were Just The Rear Fender ]
[ You Sure Got ]
[ To Know Your Spot ]
[ She Was Important & You Were Not ]
[ She Really Did Not Like You To Express ]
[ When You Were Depressed ]
[ She Was Sure ]
[ That Would Take The Spotlight Off Of Her ]
[ The Quote You Were Told Gave Your Marriage Enough Exposure ]
[ & The Meaning Behind It Sure Gives You The Much Needed Closure ]

[ Who Are Those People To You Really? ]
[ Friend Or Foe? ]
[ Will They Love You Freely? ]
[ How Will You Know? ]
[ Only Time Will Tell ]
[ Will They Drag You Through Hell? ]
[ Maybe They Will Hit You In The Head So Hard It Rings Your Bell ]
[ How Will You Gain Their Trust? ]
[ If You Want A Friendship ]
[ That Right There Is A Must ]
[ But Trust Has To Be A (2)-Way Street ]
[ If Not, Get Back On Your Feet ]
[ & Retreat ]
[ Some People Only Think Of Themself ]
[ They Really Do Not Want To Put Forth The Effort On Anyone Else ]
[ That Is Okay If They Are Upfront With That Fact ]
[ Because You Just Don’t Have The Time To Always Have To React ]
[ To Their Tired Act ]
[ If Only Everyone Would Be Responsible For Their Own Piece Of Tile ]
[ Society Would Have Some Peace For Awhile ]
[ But That Is Not How Most People Want To Roll ]
[ Some People Feel Whole ]
[ When They Watch Another Person Drop Into The Rabbit’s Hole ]
[ Being A Negative a
Person Out In Society Is How They See Their Role ]
[ The Instigator ]
[ The Agitator ]
[ But Definitely Not The Navigator ]
[ They Love The Argument & The Fight ]
[ They Lose Sight ]
[ When They Feel That Others Don’t Understand Their Plight ]
[ So They Would Rather Be (2) Ships Passing During A Foggy Night ]
[ They Don’t Want To Show Any Hospitality ]
[ Because They Do Not Want To Take Any Personal Responsibility ]
[ They Would Rather Push You Down The Hill ]
[ Before Being Forced To Pick Up The Bill ]
[ Paying Their Way Is A Huge Pill ]
[ That Some People Do Not Want To Swallow ]
[ Because Deep Down Inside ]
[ They Are Hollow ]
[ & Are Just Along For The Free Ride ]
[ But You Can Do Your Part ]
[ By Giving With Your Heart ]
[ That Right There Might Be A Good Place To Start ]

What’s the weirdest movie you’ve ever watched?
[ What Video? ]
[ You Would Have To Say That It Would Be Watching Your Wedding Video. Then Asking Yourself Now, More Than (30yrs) Later, “Why The Hell Did I Do That?” ]

Which relationship has taught you the most about yourself?
[ Which Relationship? ]
[ You Believe The Relationship That You Had With Your Ex-Wife Taught You The Most About Yourself ]
[ It Pointed Out Your Strengths ]
[ It Pointed Out Your Weaknesses Also ]
[ You Found How Codependent You Became With Your Wife ]
[ You Thought That Your World Would Crumble Without Her In Your Life ]
[ Now You Have Found That You Are Much Stronger Without Her ]
[ You Have Found That There Is Life After Divorce ]

What’s the most spontaneous thing you’ve ever done?
[ What Is The Most Spontaneous Thing You’ve Ever Done? ]
[ Probably Answering This Question ]
Mahalo,
~ Lopaka DeVoe ~
[ Maybe If You Never Ran Into All Of Those Heartbreakers In The Past ]
[ A Better Relationship Could Have Been In The Forefront Of Your Mind ]
[ You Wanted @ Least One Of Those Relationships To Last ]
[ They Just Weren’t The Lasting Kind ]
[ That You Were Looking For ]
[ Either They Wanted Or You Wanted More ]
[ When It Was Time To Go ]
[ You Showed Them The Door ]
[ You Never Meant For Things To End On Bad Terms ]
[ When They Would Get Upset ]
[ You Knew That They Were Just Words ]
[ But They Were Quite Different From When You (2) First Met ]
[ Back Then You Looked @ Life Through Rose Colored Glasses ]
[ You Would Ignore The Times ]
[ When Guy After Guy Made Passes ]
[ @ Whomever You Were With @ The Time ]
[ Pretty Soon A Big Mountain Would Get
In-Between ]
[ Then It Became An Obstacle To Climb ]
[ She Thought That Being Flirtatious Was Fun ]
[ She Did Not Rebuff A Single One ]
[ But You Were Warned ]
[ If You Acted Like That, She Would Take Off & Run ]
[ You Were Never The Flirtatious Type ]
[ Flirting On Social Media ]
[ Like Facebook, Twitter Or Skype ]
[ You Would Welcome Them With Open Arms ]
[ Treating Them As Family ]
[ Because You Felt That No One Ever Meant To Do Harm ]
[ Until They Cheated On You Repeatedly ]
[ No One Is Perfect & That Includes You ]
[ When It Comes To Dishonesty ]
[ Cheating Is One Of The Things That They Will Do ]
[ When They Needed To Go ]
[ You Used Kind Words To Say ]
[ When It Was Time To Let Them Know ]
[ A Pretty Face, But A Black Soul ]
[ Somewhere In Their Past, Someone Did Something Wrong ]
[ Opening Up A Hole ]
[ Causing Their Resolve To Not Be Very Strong ]
[ When Fingers Were Pointed In Your Direction ]
[ You Would Make The Suggestion ]
[ That They Needed To Make A Correction ]
[ Telling Them To Hold The Mirror Up To Their Face ]
[ Then Asking, “What Do You Now See?” ]
[ Do They Leave Post-Haste? ]
[ Because What They Probably Saw Was Pretty … ]
[ Ugly ]
[ Words Were No Longer Exchanged ]
[ What Else Could Be Said? ]
[ Hopefully They Changed ]
[ The Lies That They Were Thinking When They Went To Bed ]
[ In A Separate Home ]
[ Alone … ]
