I had been dating this girl, who I was very in love with, for about eight months. On new Year's Eve at the stroke of midnight, she finally told me she was in love with me. Life was wonderful. I thought I had found my one true love. That is until the following February when she told me she would be going out with another guy. This boy was about four years younger than I was. I was cool with it until the day came. She went with him, and they stayed out until 4:00 am. I was hurt really, really bad. She eventually dumped me for the boy, and I had to return the full-carat, platinum solitaire I had purchased just for her! -- Nick, 21
