You Walked In Without Knocking

 

She had gone insensitive. Why was she doing it? She wasn’t like that in reality. Or was she? How come I didn’t know this before? Should I feel better that at least I have known this before committing something serious? A two year long relationship was equally serious. At least for me. Even a single comment of mine on her pics instigated her, she removed the pic as soon as I commented. She would often make indirect comments on her profile. I hated all those quotations who directly and indirectly mean ‘leave a person’ if he isn’t a part of life you had visualized. Come on, how can you be so confident to visualize when you are young and even if you can visualize: how can you be sure? There were so many great pic, where she had gone on trips with her new friends. I don’ t know it was her or the places she had been to, she looked magical.

I saw that friend of her, I don’t want name her, with a guy, who had been impatiently following you for the last semester. Didn’t you see a connection between her and him? Didn’t you think she had planned this and you simply allowed her the opportunity? It’s not that I am avoiding the blame. I accept the mistake but had you thought for a flip second before throwing the bottle at me. I know it’s hard to process the emotions reasonably but it had been over two months. Am I only worth a single mistake? If it so, how about when you came on Sunday morning, totally wasted, with your heels in your hand and you had told me that I had been to ‘this friend’ house.
