So I was recently reminiscing about boys, specifically boys during college. It might have had something to do with the fact that I was in town where I had gone to college. I'll admit that there was a decent amount of boys then. Some I still speak to and some I don't. But nonetheless, still part of my life.
In particular, one thing haunts me to this day. M., during one of our ridiculous drunken arguments, said quite reasonably, "you know, you're the only girl I've ever been able to talk to." It might have been one of the nicest things anyone has ever said to me.
I know that I tend to choose to remember only the nicer things in life and bury the ugly. But when an off-the-wall compliment like that comes to mind, I can't help but drudge up the rest and wonder what happened to him. If he's found another girl to talk to or watches Adult Swim by himself.
I go to bed too early these days to watch.
