Rejection always hurts, but having it come from my best friend was the worst.
I'm listening to someone give up. Someone I knewโsomeone I liked. I'm listening... but still, I'm too late.
Everything seemed good, but I knew it had the potential to be awful.
Everything about it was false. Right then, in that office, with the realization that no one knew the truth about my life, my thoughts about the world were shaken.
Why would anyone say this stuff about themselves on the Internet? It's crazy!
Thatโs when I said it. Thatโs when I whispered to her, โIโm so sorry.โ Because inside, I felt so happy and sad at the same time. Sad that it took me so long to get there. But happy that we got there together.
