Not The Easiest Couple Of Days
Guy At Table: "Wow, this is great Merlot. You ever try it?"
Me: "No, I don't drink."
Guy: "Since when is wine considered drinking?"
Me: "It is to me."
Guy: (pointing to self) "Well, if you don't drink wine, you're not going to live until 99 like me."
I wanted to scream at him so bad. That happened yesterday, the third anniversary of my mother passing away from alcoholism. I just wish people would think before they say things. You don't know me. You don't know most of the people you talk to. By the way, my mother was not 99. She was 50.
A million thoughts have been passing through my head the last couple days. One thing that has always made me better was the thought of her. I shouldn't be posting this but last night, any chances of anything happening between us fizzled out. A million reasons spewed out of her mouth but I can't help but thinking that any one of them could be a deterrent to a good relationship. I'm always going to love her in one way or another as she expressed the same feeling for me last night. But, I can't help but keep on thinking what would happen if we both gave it a try.
I'm too selfless. I always just immediately enter the friends zone with girls. Grr.
