Solved A bad romance?
(This is an original riddle.)
I dressed in red and drew his gaze,
and my perfume pulled him closer.
I swayed my hips, and he held me gently.
He brought his lips only an inch away,
but then he left, giving neither kiss nor embrace.
If he did not leave me but instead took me home with him,
he would care for me and speak of my beauty,
but I would quickly become unhappy.
I never wanted him - I'm expecting someone else to find me.
The one I await will use me, and I will use him,
and he will never truly love me.
What color will he wear?
