And Another Thing

I told my friend, I think this one seems worse than the last one. She said, I wouldn’t go that far, and I laughed. Still, he’s no winner. Which is really what bothers me…the other one was a flat-out jerk and I just chose to look the other way by contorting my head, like that girl in the Exorcist. With this one, he left the fucking country without telling me. Up to that point, he was a decent guy, except for all his talk about leaving the fucking country.*

And really, this is so ridiculously sad and comical, I am left speechless.

*I knew he’d be going at some point but he flew the coup with no adios to this Medicated Lady. Hmpt.

    he was in love with boy 2 but was too young to know it

    a woman answered the door and boy 1 was told boy 2 moved away

    boy 1 feels your pain

    boy 2 doesn’t remember boy 1
