Looking at old conversations. This time last year, she was telling me about a song she listened to reminded her of me and my "sunshineyness", she said. I don't think I was into that particular band, but it was really sweet to hear someone say things like that to me, nevertheless. I still really miss her. I wish she'd come back. If she'd just drop the ********* and come back and say sorry for the hurtful things she said, I'd forgive her and we could agree to forget this ever happened and pick up where we left off, just talking to each other all the time and saying sweet things to each other and planning adventures. If only there was a way. I remember when she used to tell me she thought I was awesome and she hoped I thought she was awesome too. She wanted me to accept her. If only I'd had my life together and been interesting in time to meet her. I had so many years to prepare, there really was no excuse. I look back at how I was living and just kick myself. I've only met two other girls that were like her, but she was the one who reached out to me the most, and they too are long since taken. Argh. Why do people have to pair off so early? Why do I move so slow? Now there's no one left, and it didn't have to be this way either.
