You know those days when you look back on your life and you know that you're terribly evil?
For me, today's that day.
What's made me think that is something that I did over a year ago...I used to use Facebook a great deal, you know?
And I was one of those people who was all like, "Yeah! Add me! Feel free."
So, anyway--one day I added this girl. An Indonesian, 17 years old.
Later that day, we began talking. And that night she said that she had fallen in love with me, and when I woke up the next morning; I was quite convinced that I loved her, too.
So, our relationship grew over the following few weeks.
And then I did something that most people would consider unthinkable: I ran away.
I was missing for two days before I was found. By that time, I'd been able to get all the way to Brisbane; and I had tickets to Cairns.
And I've never been able to talk to her again. But I wonder about her sometimes--well, most days.
And I've never forgiven myself.
