	Hi, my name's Eric and I'm a compulsive dater...haha...
Anyway, during the first few days of October, 1991, I met and
soon started 'dating' Jules...she was a junior in college, while
I was a senior in high school...for three monthes we dated, all
along there was a guy on the back burner, we'll call him Rod...
she swore up and down that there wasn't anything going on with
them and I honestly believed her, but despite her obvious lact
of interest in him, he still believed they were dating, even
though he lived 15 hours away...during Christmas break, I got
fed up with it, knowing that he was in her hometown, I told
her it had to be him or me...and she responded by saying she
wasn't prepared to break his heart like that, so she broke
mine...
	I was pretty down, and lonely for the next week until
I met Terra...we hit it off from the start, but no matter how
much time I spent with her my feelings for her never became as
strong as the feelings I had for Jules...anyway...
	I sucessfully avoided Jules for a month and a half...
then she came to me one day and told me how she told off Rod
(a lie, which she later admitted, told again, and admitted again)
I will admit that some things happened between us that day, things
which I am DEEPLY ashamed of, and that I have paid for...and am
STILL paying for...but I never gave up Terra for Jules...
	A couple weeks later I told Terra everything, except
the time Jules and I got...involved...I honestly wanted to,
since I knew that Terra would be hurt, but would get over it
and things would get back to normal, but I made a mistake
and gave my word to Jules that I wouldn't tell anyone...I 
know this must sound like I was saving my ass, but if any of
you actually knew me, you'd know how I feel about lying to
save yourself...needless to say, if you need to lie to get
out of trouble, you deserve to get burned, and that's how
I've always handled it...well, anyway...I never admitted to
Terra about my night with Julie, and it was quickly forgotten
until Jules went to Terra and told her straight out (from what
I am told).  Now that's where all Hell broke loose...every
action I made looked like a cover to save my ass...no matter
what I did, Jules seemed to have me covered, or maybe I'm 
just paranoid...well, to put a wrap on this story, I lost
Terra to one of my best friends, and GAVE up Jules to who
knows who...
	Well, that's my story...anyone who reads this will 
know my views of what happened and if they disagree, then
that's life...if you have any questions at all, just mail
me...I'm not sure how to use e-mail, so hopefully you do!!

	I know it probably sounds like the ramblings of a
madman, and you know what?! You're right! haha...thanks
for listening...

	Eric
