I'll make it short.
She was beautiful by anyone's standards. She was also not shy in the bedroom. These two facts clouded my judgement and caused me to overlook her very obvious flaws. Well, they SHOULD have been obvious, but when the little head is doing the thinking...
I thought that she was really special, so I bought her special stuff. In fact, I spent WAY too much money on her, with included some really big-ticket consumer goods. But she was very special - special in how incredibly tied up she was in her appearance, needing validation for EVERY choice she made, insecure, and emotionally needy. I spent two months in this relationship, and in retrospect it seemed like a LOT longer. This was in the days before cell phones, so at least she couldn't call me all damn day like she'd call me all damn weekend.
Letting her go took too long because, well, the sex was so damn good. I kept pushing all the hassles aside. Two months we were together, and that was about five weeks too long, IMO. Actually, the very worst part about this whole tale is that it took me a little while and a few more like her to actually see the pattern and get myself out of it. It didn't take as long as it did with her, but the fact that I even started new each time meant I was a slow learner. :/
