They we were on the Jerry Springer Show.
His girlfriend made a laughing stock spectacle out of him under the glaring lights and hundreds of thousands of viewers.
Surprised, embarrassed, and angry he swore they were through.
She laughed and said he always says that. And he’ll come back to me.
In front of hundreds of thousands of viewers eagerly awaiting his response sitting in their homes eating snacks and watching that insane show, he vowed that this time he meant it.
Unfazed by his vow, his girlfriend laughed again, as if his vow were a joke.
She said he always says that; he’s not going anywhere.
He smirked and said yeah sure, you’ll see, just don’t wait up for me, but it sounded like false bravado.
Despite that televised relationship show drama and the boyfriend’s vow to leave his girlfriend, I believe she was right. And the way she was so confident cracked me up.
And I got the feeling she was a lot of fun and more than worth staying with.
