I hear what you are saying and will only day there maybe good reason for her doubts that don't involve her squawking friends ultimately it's something you both should have a serious discussion about if you feel it is worth doing Good Luck

    Whenever your mate listens more to her friends that she does to you, there may be problems too big to overcome. Thank you for your review comments.

Hi Norman,
This person must have a low self image and inability to make her own decisions on a subject if she lets her friends make her leave her husband
for a kiss on the cheek. If she knew the woman was a friend than she would know the kiss was just a greeting or goodbye from a friend.
Maybe a kiss on the lips would be more telling of cheating
Keep writing and stay healthy
Have a great rest of your day and week.
Joan

    You are absolutely correct. Only someone who has low self esteem would even be bothered by something like this. Sadly, people like this do exist and leave behind them a trail of broken trust, and broken hearts.

    It is sad, but true.

It is hard to dismiss the negative position one is put in when tongue-waggers insist on painting someone as a cheater. Once that happens, the rest of the relationship is on the defensive.

    It all boils down to, who do you trust , who do you listen to, who do you really love? If you cannot truly say, then you may not be ready to be in a serious relationship.

Excellent point. Listen before leaping to conclusions. When a person only sees part of what is going on, it is so easy to misinterpret what is happening.
Nice end rhythms and meter.

This is a great poem, it rhymes nicely and it conveys an important message...don't jump to conclusions! Always give your partner the chance to explain, you owe then that much. Thanks for sharing. :)

Absolutely no, Nomi. It's not advisable to jump to conclusions when you don't know what is going on if anything at all. I loved your well written poetry. Jealousy is the worst. Ulla:)))

Nomi.
My friend, you have spewed words everyone should adhere to. So many are quick to judge (been there myself) before getting all the facts in order to make a decision.

Once that decision has been made, like you wrote, swim through a lake of piranha and mayyyybe be considered taking one back.

Well written!
John

    You are welcome.
    Also... I gave "Say You are Sorry Later" a plug on Jim Wile's latest novel post!

You have taken a serious subject - making judgement without the facts, and worse, spreading an untruth - and turned it into a great poem. Your rhyming is spot on.

    Thank you Ginda, I don't believe we have previously met. So it is a pleasure to meet you and to enjoy your kind assessment of my poem.

    Hi Jen. Thank you so much. Even though this poem is purely a work of fiction, the problems it describes is all too real in the lives of far to many people who struggle to just get along, minus the interference of well meaning friends.

She saw you kiss someone on the cheek. as the very first words. Unless that's your momma or the Pope, a girl has every right to think what she wants of that. If a girl broke off, it wasn't right for her. Well written and I hope it's not true but if so, good luck!

    Thankfully it was not true for me, but it is for some unfortunate couples. In many parts of the world a friendly peck on the cheek is very common and meaningless. Certainly not cause to end a relationship.

    I'm Greek. We give a peck on each cheek. So I know but every relationship has its sensitivities and choices must be made. Common customs is the loved b one who doesn't like the custom.:/

    I understand. I'm first generation American with parents from Greece. I hear you. Glad all is well for you.
