Description
Love comes with a price; it means cheating on a current partner to be with one’s true love, or so it seems. When a writer finds a college girl named "Sarah" through Craigslist to come over his house, he doesn't know he is about to lose his virginity and cheat on his highschool girlfriend. A True Love Story: A Memoir of False Love, Lies, Cheating, Betrayal, Unrequited Love, Social Networking, and The Written Word, is about that crazy week and the emotional relationship—one full of lies and cheating—and the even more emotional events that follow, such as being lonely and dealing with Betrayal Trauma, and finding his place in the world once again as he tries to learn to heal and move on.
But along the way, he learns the signs of lying and cheating, sharing them through story and a brief self-help section so that readers may not suffer a similar fate. He also discovers what love really is (selflessness), his beliefs and values (He chooses not to steal money from her wealthy father, for instance), and that he's quite the funny person (He sniffs her sister’s panties?). At the end of it all, he realizes he doesn't need a girl or relationships for happiness; instead, he learns to enjoy being alone and living a meaningful life with his writing.
The author also illustrates relationship advice throughout the story.
This memoir answers many questions about love and the human experience: How does love and cheating change the course of a relationship and human behavior? Is love only what the person feels? Is love selfish? Does love mean using someone for the time being? Is morality in relationships important? Is the dating world completely messed up (Most likely yes to this one)?
A True Love Story is a literary and coming-of-age—and sometimes humorous—contemporary romance memoir written for high school and college students, and for both cheaters and those who have been cheated on. But anyone who enjoys a good love story will be interested in reading.
