>>6703569>Oh shit, accidentally forgot a papeI picked up the phone, and after she told me a quite fascinating story that began with her biking to CVS and ended with her going to a strip club with a local (women's) soccer team, I mustered up to courage and asked her, "Hey.. It's been weird between us, lately, and you might hate me for this, but do you want to be in a long distance relationship?" It was silent at first, but I was prepared for whatever she decided to say. She said no. Well, more specifically, she wanted some time to figure out college, her life, mine, and I kind of agree. Things are going to be crazy these next four years, and I think some time away from being in a relationship where I had no idea where I stood is good.
But honestly? I'm happy.
It might be incredibly stupid/naive/idiotic, but I feel really grateful that things sort of worked out in the end. Sure, I didn't "get the girl," but I realized what it meant to truly love somebody; to want to be around someone that makes you feel like, despite the fact that you're on one of billions of planets in one of millions of galaxies, that you matter.
So here I am, not exactly as emotional as the other stories on here, but it definitely did help to talk about it.
And who knows? Maybe I'll meet someone in college.
On a more light-hearted note, while I was brooding over being heartbroken, I sort of dove into a lot of the Foo Fighters' discography, and all of their lyrics made sense to me. It's weird, and angsty, but it definitely helped me get through it.
