Woke up feeling great. Energized. Made delicious brunch, caught an ep of How to get away with murder and my all-time fave, Desperate housewives on cable (would rewatch every rerun of this and Charmed whenever there's a chance). Watched tennis. Yes, Rafa! Played the piano. I read faster. I am better.
Last night I dressed, danced, conjured new moves thanks to Panic! At The Disco and a heartbreak.
Never mind how but I did find out. Did the math. They've been together three years.
Why does it hurt?
Because they weren't together when we met.
I failed.
I wasn't the one chosen.
I lost to someone whom I didn't think was competition.
"...the worst is the thought that they tried you out and, in the end, the whole sum of parts adds up to you got stamped REJECT by the one you love."
The other was better.
