My freshman self would be freaking the fuck out right about now. Not only did I hang out with them, but I CONVERSED with them and IMBIBED with them too?!?!!
It was nice. Not because I used to be severely infatuated with two of the young men in question. That's firmly in the past. But it was nice to show them that I was different from the girl they used to know. That I was stronger than the girl they left. That they didn't intimidate me anymore.
That I was a formidable opponent.
Plus, free shit. :-D
They asked me for my side of the story regarding JX (I'm going to use GG2's nickname for him now). I like to think I took the high road. They say they got his version already, but that they wouldn't tell me what he said....I doubt it's very flattering...
My words to them exactly, after being asked if he had cheated or something: "No haha, it was nothing like that...he's a good guy, he really is. We were just looking for different things. Had different ideas and ambitions regarding each other and ourselves. It just wasn't the match that he wanted. I haven't spoken to him recently because I don't really want to push matters right now. He's said that he needs some time away from me, so I'm going to respect that. But who knows? Maybe, hopefully, this year we can both bury the past and enjoy the friendship that we used to have."
They said they wouldn't tell him what I said. I don't really care either way.
I will say this. It's surprisingly satisfying to be kind...
