Analysis of Cheater



Why because you are not good enough
You take the weak route
Your skills in this relationship are lacking soft questionable
Why do you get satisfaction from your status What status No answer from me… As hard as it may be question where you are
How did you get to this place No answer from me
I have no desire to feed you in your quest
The quest to be where I am and so many are
 I feel for you, but I don’t think I love you (Not Chaka Kahn)
Look into the mirror and hopefully one day you will see the person you should be
 But if you are still cheating and you like who you are let the other person go so they can in relationships without you,,,, go far…
