Infatuation is a crazy thing.

We haven't spoken in 4 years, but I see a picture and damned if my stomach doesn't get tied up in knots like it was five minutes ago that we almost missed each other on the escalators in Penn Station in New York.

Stupid losing contact.

I mean, if we hadn't lost contact, we'd have eventually dated. And in time, his slight flakiness- the only flaw I ever found in him, would have driven me mad and I'd have ended up hating him. This way, he can be nearly perfect in my mind forever, right?

I'm just gonna tell myself that. In an hour, I'll forget him again.

Yeah, that's it.

Ah, but crushes are so much fun. I enjoy them whenever possible.

hehe...they are, aren't they?

I've got me one of those. I can give a million and five reasons why "we" would have never worked out, but I think I will always consider him to be The One That Got Away.

The stinky thing is, we didn't lose contact. He *stopped* contact. I'll probably never know why. But like you said, at least this way he will always be wonderful in my eyes.

I hope he's doing well, I hope he's happy.

Chances are, yeah, you probably wouldn't end up together in the end anyway, but our memories have a way of making those in our past seem so perfect to us.....as to keep us constantly pining over the one(s) that got away. Just try to keep a check on reality.

oh, no worries. I'm already waaaaay past thinking about this. (You don't know me well enough to know that I don't lose my head about this sort of thing...heh)

Oh good. :) I hate to think of you sitting there pining for someone who'd just end up annoying you to death anyway. Hehe

Yeah, but it's sometimes nice to indulge in a bittersweet melancholy, thinking about things like that. I know I've got a few just like it, too, where we both knew.... *shudder*
