Man Completely Ends His Relationship After Receiving This Photo in a Text

Iris was a fashion design student who finally found someone to share her life with and her new beau Thomas seemed to be the perfect match. His profile stated that he had a good job, many hobbies and his photos proved that he was devastatingly handsome.

But she should have been more careful when dating using social media apps, because you can’t always be sure who the person on the other side of the screen is until you get to know them.

And in this case, Iris was certainly missing a few details that could have let her know Thomas’s true intentions in the dating world.

On one fateful day, she pressed send on a photo without thinking of the repercussions and Thomas’s heart sank. A picture can truly say a thousand words and Thomas knew that she couldn’t explain away the details that were obvious in the photo.

He should have guarded his heart when dealing with long-distance love, too. It wasn’t only Thomas that was hiding one side of himself while trying the dating pool, but also Iris, who shielded a side of herself from her suitor in an attempt to secure his affections.

But obviously, lies are never a good foundation for a long and healthy relationship.

Long Distance Love

Iris was a beautiful and well-traveled woman who was in the midst of looking for a partner to share her life with. Iris was used to putting work first in her personal life and most of her priorities centered around making and saving money and climbing the corporate ladder.

She was ready to settle down but she had one flaw that made finding a mate difficult; she was very shy. Her anxiety about meeting new people made dating a trying task, even though she knew she was ready to give her love to someone.

So, she started an account on a dating app and opened up her heart to love once more.

She Matched With a Mystery Man

After a few failed attempts at starting conversations with possible suitors over the phone app, she matched with a man named Thomas. Thomas seemed to be the whole package, he had a great job in sales, he loved traveling just as much as Iris did, and he was looking for a serious connection.

He was also ready to stop focusing so much on work and start living his life to the fullest. He was sick of days spent behind a desk only to go back home to an apartment that felt cold and empty.

But it’s difficult to fully know someone before you meet them in person, so Iris decided to trust her gut and go on an in-person date with Thomas, but she might soon regret it.

They Met in Person for the First Time

On Thomas and Iris’s first date, it seemed like the two had met their soulmates. They instantly connected and their conversations never ceased during their romantic dinner. They were the same in so many important ways.

Both of them valued work in their daily lives, but knew in their hearts that they wanted to spend more time focusing on their families and passions. In fact, the date went so well that the second after Thomas drove Iris back to her apartment, she gushed on the phone about him to her parents.

It really seemed like she had found “the one,” and she was ready to devote her whole life to their relationship. But was she taking things too fast?

He Wanted to Take Her on a Trip

Only a few weeks after the couple had met in person, Thomas made a huge gesture and invited Iris on a weekend getaway to a tropical island. This was a huge step to take in any relationship, and the suddenness of the question wasn’t lost on Iris.

She was floored, but her friends weren’t impressed. Was Thomas just trying to wow Iris by buying her expensive things that wouldn’t last? Iris knew her love couldn’t be bought, so she accepted the invitation.

After all, if she felt uncomfortable, she could afford to find her own accommodations in the tropical paradise. And on that trip, Iris really learned her new boyfriend’s true intentions.
