How can you be with someone who isn’t what you really want? Because they’re the closest thing to what you’re waiting for. If you’re waiting for that one person to make the decision to be where you are and be with you, but it won’t be for a while until they can choose that option: you grab the nearest thing. In simple terms: If what you want isn’t available grab the closest thing until you can have it.
This really alleviates a lot of anxiety I’ve been having about going to Augustana because John is there. I’m really not looking forward to interacting with John because he makes me uncomfortable. I feel like he doesn’t want me around any more. She’s says it’s best to cut my losses but… that’s not fair. I don’t deserve to lose a friend because he doesn’t want to do something stupid.
Bah Ive said this before so ignore me…
