The fog of love
My name is Li Yang, an ordinary person living in a bustling city. My family background is not prominent, my parents are ordinary people who work hard, they taught me the truth of being a human being, and let me know how to cherish and be grateful. After graduating, I successfully entered a large company, and although I was busy with work, my life was relatively stable.
On a sunny weekend, I met Lin Wan. She is beautiful and touching, and exudes elegance in her gestures. We met at a charity gala, and her smile was like a spring breeze, which made me feel good. From that day on, our interactions gradually became more frequent.
Lin Wan always finds various reasons to meet me, whether it is attending an art exhibition or tasting food, she always brings me new surprises. Her speech and demeanor make me think that she is a gentle, considerate and empathetic woman. I gradually fell into a deep infatuation with her, as if I had found the other half of my life.
However, as time went on, I began to notice something unusual about Lin Wan. She always seems to bring up some high-spending topics, consciously or unconsciously, such as her new designer bag, the luxury trip she just booked, etc. Although I am not wealthy, I try to meet her needs as much as possible.
Until one day, Lin Wan suddenly made a request to me, she wanted me to lend her a sum of money for her entrepreneurial project. She said that the project is very promising and that there will be good returns on investment as long as it is invested. Looking at her expectant eyes, my heart moved. I took out my savings for many years and lent it to her without hesitation.
However, things didn't go as smoothly as Lin Wan said. Her project didn't move on for a long time, and she started borrowing money from me frequently. I began to feel confused and uneasy, but every time I asked a question, she always found various reasons to prevaricate.
Until one day, I accidentally discovered Lin Wan's secret. Instead of using my money for entrepreneurial projects, she indulged in gambling and shopping. Her designer bags, high-end cosmetics, and expensive trips were all bought by her with my money. I was shocked and couldn't come to terms with this fact.
I decided to have a showdown with Lin Wan, and I asked her to give me an explanation. However, when I confronted her, she didn't care. She said lightly: "Li Yang, do you think I really love you? Let me tell you the truth, I approached you just for your money." Your so-called gentleness, thoughtfulness, kindness and generosity are worthless in my eyes. ”
Her words pierced me like a sharp knife into my heart, and I couldn't believe it. I used to trust her so much and love her so much, but she kept using me and deceiving me. I felt angry, disappointed, and heartbroken.
After the anger passed, I began to reflect on why I had fallen into such an emotional trap. I realized that it was my own vanity and greed that had caused me to lose my mind. I longed to have a beautiful girlfriend and to show off my love life in front of my friends. It was this vanity that made me ignore Lin Wan's true face and be confused by her appearance and words.
At the same time, I also began to examine my own concept and values of love. I realized that true love is not based on money and material things, but on mutual respect and understanding. Only those who truly know how to cherish and be grateful can have true love and happiness.
In order to get out of this emotional trap, I decided to take action. I decided to cut ties with Lin Wan and no longer provide any help and support to her. At the same time, I also started to work hard to improve my ability and income, and no longer waste time and money on useless people and things.
In this process, I met someone who really understands me and cherishes me - Xiaoya. She wasn't beautiful and moving, but she touched me deeply with her kindness and sincerity. We are always able to understand and support each other when we are together. I began to realize that true love doesn't need flashy looks and expensive gifts, it just needs mutual respect and understanding to be able to have happiness.
Looking back now, the experience of being deceived was painful for me, but it also made me grow a lot. I learned how to recognize a person for who he really is, how to keep a sane and clear head, and no longer be fooled by appearances and words. At the same time, I also cherish the happiness and warmth in front of me even more, and know how to be grateful and cherish everyone who is really good to me.
