(Im using this as a diary, so it is exempt from the 3-in-a-row rule)
I didnt know what Friends With Benefits were.
I got divorced, you see, but I hadnt been unfaithful. Only mentally ill, addicted, and abused.So when someone I considered Someone I know and who I would talk to in the supermarket proposed a different approach to the relationship, I had no f*ck*ng idea what an FWB meant. Was it like LBQT? I was way too embarrassed to even ask. I mean, Im younger.Im supposed to do these things, right?? I havent watched tv in 2 years. I dont know what any of the vernacular means. I mean, I havent even been able to READ because of my depression.
I have messed it up every step of the way. Ive misunderstood, not known what phrases mean in the modern vernacular, for goodness sake; and Ive capped it off by now gradually recovering the memory of a conversation that would have removed our present estrangement entirely. Which I caused simply by not remembering a conversation that I much later realised Id had with him, of course.
And my massive crush continues unabated.
