i could always change my name if that's what you mean

it's funny how quickly a person can change in your eyes.

that initial fascination with what's unknown- gently fades when the unknown becomes familiar and boring. the people who were fascinating become familiar and boring- and so we cast out another line in search of someone who could sustain that sweet allure of novelty. the mystery of what's unknown- so pallatable and so attractive are all the potential solutuons to this puzzle. the human imagination becomes intoxicated with possibilities. we fantasize about soul mates and finishing one another's sentences- about liking all of the same foods and films- we project the things we desire most onto the people we desire most. and oh how we set ourselves up for cruel disappointment.

such is life.

how odd to see what appeared to be a look of loss on your face-
i swear, i was never that exciting to begin with.
