Heartbreaker
When I first met him, it was refreshing. He paid attention and he remembered things. Little things, like how I played with the button on my clutch, or how many times I blinked before the tears toppled over. He surprised me with tulips on or second date, claiming he remembered how I stopped to smell them from our walk home from dinner the previous date.
He played every trick in the book, and I fell for it all.
Later, after the shock had worn off, but still soon enough that my heart ached, I would hear people refer to him as the Venus Fly Trap, which never made sense to me. Maybe a rose with thorns, but that was cliche, and he ruined cliches for me.
Maybe there isn't any plant that matches his evilness perfectly. Maybe the only word you can use us heartbreaker.
