Yes, a few times in my life. The most recent happened in '93 when my long time boyfriend of 10 years died of lung cancer. Minutes after hearing the news that he'd died, I found out that a few days before he died, on my birthday, he had married one of several women he'd been seeing behind my back. I wasn't invited to the funeral because I was now not anybody in his life. I still visit his grave now and then. The last time I put a sign on his grave: WHY DIDN'T YOU JUST QUIT SMOKING?

@riseofthemachine Thank you. I haven't recovered. It greatly added to my cynicism. I trust no one.
