More than just a date. I recently have been “seeing” someone. I initially liked them, but lost interest after finding out a few things. The poem is about how I recently realized how much I am not interested in this person yet for the last few months I continually go out with them. I don’t even know why. I find them to be rather dull, superficial, self centered, highly promiscuous and many other character flaws. I am not particularly lonely, I don’t even want to date anyone. I can’t explain why I continue to see them. Other than I am a typically nice guy, and when they call, I answer. This person hasn’t been mean or cruel, but not generous either. I just feel like they haven’t given me just reason to cut the ties.

It is just my resolution to end something volatile.

Anyway, that was probably more than you wanted to know, but it feels good to get it off my chest.

Thanks for the comments, I wrote it in terminology to reflect the confusion and complexity of what I am feeling.

That is what I am realizing. Well even then the situation gets more complicated. This person is also promised to someone else who is at sea on deployment. Supposedly the arrangement was that until they were reunited in the states, then both parties were free to date/whatever until that date. So the person who the poem is about, isn’t necessarily becoming emotionally attached to me. So they say.

But I agree this isn’t a right situation. (and this is not my defense, just an explanation of the intricacies) That is why now I have severed ties.
