Just say no
How many times have your friends begged you to stop doing this or that for your own sake? To stop boycotting yourself by:
- falling for the wrong guy
- carrying on obsessing about the wrong guy
- nurturing hopes against all odds about the wrong guy
- talking incessantly about the wrong guy.
Truth is, no matter how hard they try to convince you, it has to come from within. Because even if the tallest wall is erected to shield temptation away, you would probably fall back on your butt when first left to your own devices.
So, it is with a massive sigh of relief, that Single Friend #1 has declared that she cannot be bothered with Ghost Guy anymore.
She finally had the chance to meet him again, after all the unsuccessful stalking, and decided.. not to go. Not because she was scared, nervous or felt insecure. She just could not face the stress and hard work associated with another meeting/heartache/pointless longing.
Instead, she called me while on her way home and we chatted pointlessly about the serious stuff of life: whether wearing black at a wedding is still inappropriate, good books and bad books, why we struggle to create meaningful long-term human relations, if aubergines are better grilled or fried. GG wasn't mentioned once.
I am very proud.
