I can relate to this song. I was taken in again! Yes, I'm one of the proverbial "sucker born every minute." I'm such a fool! Where ever you are, this one's for you.
Taken in, taken in again
Wrapped around the finger of some fair-weather friend
Caught up in the promises, left out in the end
No pride, taken for a ride
You say I'm the only one when I look in your eyes
I want to believe you but you know how to lie
And if you say you understand I don't believe it
And when you reach out for my hand I don't believe it
And if you say you take the blame I don't believe it
And if say that nothing's changed I don't believe it, don't believe it
Taken in, taken in again
Someone saw me coming, a fool without a friend
There's one born every minute and you're looking at him (me!)
And if you say you want me near I don't believe it
And when you're holding back the tears I don't believe it
And when you swear that you are mine I don't believe it
And it's your heart that's on the line I don't believe it, don't believe it
Taken in, taken in again
Wrapped around the finger of some fair-weather friend
Caught up in the promises, left out in the end
No pride, taken for a ride
You say I'm the only one when I look in your eyes
I'd love to believe you but you know how to lie
You say you want me near I don't believe it
And when you're holding back the tears I don't believe it
Oh, there's one born every minute, you're looking at him
Taken in, taken in again
Someone saw me coming, a fool without a friend
I want to believe you, oh
When you say you understand
When you reach out for my hand
Oh, I wish I could believe you
Taken in, taken in again...

You sound like you're putting yourself down, but if I based what I think from the lyrics of that song I really don't think you did anything wrong. People that you can't hold to their word will always be around. So there should be no doubting who's the fool. Now, I don't know you personally but I bet it was his lost.
Based on another song: shame on HIM because HE fooled me once, shame on ME because he fooled me TWICE. I was taken in AGAIN. I didn't learn the first time around and my heart had to take a second time beating for me to realize what's wrong. If I'm sad now it's because I let him do this to me AGAIN.
Is it his loss? Let's just say I'm free from my bondage now, I feel sorry for his significant other and his next victim.
Thanks for the comment.
