By the time Valentine's day started rolling around there have been a lot of red flags that popped up and my trust in Ever Mae and the illusion I had about the type of person that I thought she was, to my hurt and disappointment, was fast crumbling.
I was beginning to see and understand that the real Ever Mae Nollora was a much different person from the person I thought she was. I began to see her more and more as the self-centered person that she is and I thought to myself Valentine's day would be a great test.
I admit that during the previous month I had sent ever made several hundred dollars I've also sent her several hundred dollars in nice gifts.
Now I know people in the Philippines are poor and Ever Mae was no exception but I figured with the several hundred dollars that I gave her that if she cared about me at all then a simple gesture of taking the effort to go out and spend $3 to buy a Valentine's day card and mail it to me should be expected.
Well sure enough Valentine's day came and there was no card in the mail. The next day I playfully brought it to her attention so as to not make her defensive just to see what she would say and of course in true Ever Mae Nollora fashion with another bullshit answer.
She had said that she bought me a Valentine's day card but she's going to wait 'till she actually gets here and is with me and hand me that Valentine's day card along with a bunch of other things she got for me.
Valentine's day coming and going with no card from her and a bullshit explanation as to why is when things really begin to quickly crumble between Ever Mae and I as rightly so, my trust for her was fast dwindling and becoming non-existent.
