Twighlight Zone
I have had a lot of weird things happen to me in my life. But, after thinking about this for a while and "sleeping on it" I have to say that last night takes the fucking cake.
I was minding my own business when I had one of the strangest encounters ever, I swear.
An old friend stopped by. We started with renewing a friendship we've both let drop, which lead to talk of a relationship. Which was downgraded to dating, which was downgraded to friends with perks. Which was then going to be just sex, then just friends, then they left. I swear to God that in less then one hours someone talked themselves step by step out of dating me. What the hell am I?
A 'Friend of Bill's' for the relationship challenged? I still think that that was too surreal to have actually happened. I must have dreamed it. Except, I didn't. Wow.
I'm still waiting for Alan Funt to jump out of one of my plants and yell "You're on Candid Camera!"
In an absolutely unrelated event that happened two hours later, I got my heart broken. Though not in a romantic way.
Something I've noticed lately. A lot of people around here seem to be having "friendship" issues. Fights, double crosses, hurt feelings, words said in anger, people all running to their own corners to lick their wounds. This happens all the time, right? A week or two will pass, things will get mended, life goes on. Right?
Wrong. Some people take things more personally, or just finally hit their bullshit factor, and say "Fuck it."
That friend you think will always be there, to battle and bitch at, one day they just might not be. And they may never even tell you that they're going.
To all my friends that I've ignored lately, I love you guys. And please, on your way out, at least give me the chance to say goodbye.
