Say You Are Sorry Later
Jealousy at its worst51 total reviews
Comment from Debi Pick Marquette
Now what kind of a mess did you get yourself into, bro?? LOL, I pray this was fiction or I am teasing you and you might hate me for it. OUCH!! That would hurt a lot. .... I like your poem and it makes a lot of sense tho just because we all jump to conclusions at some point, and doesn't mean we are doing something wrong. So even tho it is probably all fictional, let's pretend that it was true. .... Of course I should let you know that it is hereditary for us to flirt a little. I have gotten myself into a few fixes by being too friendly. And I know you well enough to know you are pretty irresistible for the ladies. So yes, she should apologize if she took it wrong. However, she should have known she married a guy with lots of charisma and charm! (Big Smile and Hugs!)

I do believe sis that you repeated yourself on this one. No problems you can review me as many times as you desire. :-))

LOL, if I repeated myself it was to give you another compliment, or else I am losing it. I have way too many irons in the fire and I have been doing that a lot lately. You are so sweet tho!

This poem has good rhyming and thought. My favorite line is when you say, "You can't recross the bridge you are burning." So true! It has. Nice flow as well.

Thank you very, very much.

This could almost have been an entry in the contest for telling a story only using dialogue. Very well done! And, as good moral, as well. Too often relationships have broken and reputations ruined by hasty judgment. No major concerns. Continue your great writing!

Comment from BethShelby
Jealously is an aweful thing. This poem reminds me of something I just heard about my son. He kissed his receptionist on the cheek when she gave him gift for at Christmas. He did it in front of his wife because to him it seemed appropriate. Not to her, she assumed they were having an affair. Jumping to conclusions make you unhappy when it isn't anything other that friendship.

Amen. Some people are just affectionate and show their friendliness in different ways.

You creatively provided a great message in poetic form. Before you start talking about what you 'think,' make sure you are correct before you utter a word. I especially liked, "You can't recross the bridge you are burning." I enjoyed both the poem and the message.

Thank you, even though this was a fictional account, I have seen this play out in reality too many times. Not to me thank God.

When we are younger often we do not have the right tools to communicate our feelings,

Nomi338, the picture, this too real theme; accusatory tone (I paused to put
on some Bobby Blue Bland)...Now, I got yo' back! I ain't never heard, "You can't recross the bridge you are burning." The mood then got real funky...
"To return to me, you must swim a sea with a huge alligator..." this be some real serious stuff. I loved this empathic and true to life rendition.

almost 21, I think:) teafor2
Comment from Jesse James Doty
This is so true. Fix it now rather than say sorry later. Too many folks jump to conclusions when they see something that looks suspicious so it is always better to ask for an explanation rather than jump high to conclusions.
Thanks for reminding us how it is when people do rash things to folks they love.

Comment from GWHARGIS
Jealousy is the same thing as lack of trust. It's so sad to see couples acting like this. If you don't have full trust in your partner, you are really missing out. Your poem was wonderful. It was rhythmic and the rhyming was on point. Great job. Gretchen

Oh, this is a poem that everyone should read. Look before we jump, think before we act, and know before we assume. I know it takes me back to some things I should have handled differently, and I'm betting it will hit home with most who read it. LOL. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you for your review. It is a cautionary message against snap judgements and perception that might no be correct.
