Mispent Youth

Friday evening I met up with my old girlfriend from high school (henceforth known as OGFHS). She invited me to her home and we figured we would take it from there. I was a little nervous, ever since I heard from her I was really concerned that she would be harboring bad feelings about me abandoning her and I knew it would have to put out in the open.

upon arrival at her place everything felt, well good. She introduced me to her fiance, her baby and her whole place. We then decided to get going and just sort of fly by the seat of our pants. Us being on the older side of our age (meaning that some people are age still rage for fun and we just would rather not, thank you very much) we settled on drinks and light dinner. Conversation was easy and we had so much to catch up on. Every time I would open my mouth it was just dishing out stuff that happened since the last time we talked. We both opened up to each other about tough times we both had, it turns out we were both going through some yucky stuff at the same time (her yucky went on longer then my yucky).

The evening went on well enough and we spent over 5 hours together. As I was driving her home she brings up the situation that made us stop talking, her degenerate ex-boyfriend. I was sort of mentally panicking, I was waiting for the swift verbal kick to the gut, she talked about how she was insensitive and wrong during that situation and how I was the only person telling her the truth that this guy was a lowlife. She told me that she waited to hear from me again, she figured that I was angry and in time would cool out and resume the friendship. I told her it was not that I was angry it was that I could not watch someone I love be ripped apart and I figured she was angry with me and that when she got some sense I'd hear from her.

Regardless, I am so pleased that we reconnected. I am so happy to see her happy. It was just a nice evening and I really look forward to keeping it all going.
