And That's It

John wrote back the other day. It wasn’t as bad as I feared. It wasn’t what I’d hoped either. The good news is that he took my message rather well. His response was short and to the point. He flat out told me that he wasn’t but added that I wasn’t the first to ask.

I’m not as crushed as I thought I would be. Sure, I still feel pretty horrible and this empty feeling is still there. But I suppose the finality that came with his message gave me some comfort. I can look beyond my first hard crush. Heh, at least I’m not crying over him.
