I consider this a random/puzzling message because:
- we were barely friends in high school
- we've barely talked since high school
- he has a girlfriend, or at least claims he does (his Facebook page says otherwise, but whatever) and he was CLEARLY hitting on me, and claimed to have had a crush on me since high school *rolls eyes* oh please...I have a slightly different version of that story
I can't say I was one of those people that really enjoyed high school, it was okay, but it wasn't one of the highpoints of my life. Its not that I was unpopular, I was just different, reflecting on my experience, as sad as it sounds, I think one of the only things that made me so popular and made me stand out was my looks, but I never really felt like I fit in...lets just put it this way, if I looked a little bit different I'm sure I would have been considered a loser and a complete nerd. I just never felt like I fit in with the "popular" people I hung out with, and because I hung out with this group and was viewed in a certain way, it made me somewhat unapproachable to the people that I actually would have loved to hang out with. I hate how high school works...but I digress lol
So C was also a part of what was considered the "popular" group and although we were "friends" by virtue of being a part of the same group, he teased me relentlessly about what he called my "nerdlike tendencies"...now that I reflect of this, it just seems ridiculous and I don't know why I let it bother me so much...who teases someone else for loving to read, participating in class and extra-curricular activities, and doing really well in school? Clearly an insecure person....but anyways, you can see why I would be puzzled by his messages
My guess is that since he hasn't really done anything since high school a.k.a the highpoint of his life (read: currently unemployed, didn't pursue any post-secondary education, and living at home with mom), so that pretty nerdy girl who did everything in high school and who's now doing things in life, is starting to look a little better...well guess what 1. it's to late and 2.I'm not even close to being interested in a 21 year old unemployed, uneducated boy living at home with his mama and not even attempting to pursue something he's passionate about...what would I want with that?
Is it wrong that I kind of feel good about the fact that everyone who gave me a hard time in high school is a complete loser now? lol
