Today I went to the movies. I walked up to get my ticket, and I was face to face with a girl that took my breath away. She was beautiful, blonde, the brightest blue eyes I'd seen. Very different from my usual tastes, which is probably what confused me at the time. I noticed a tattoo on her wrist, an eye. I found it interesting, I wanted to know the story behind it. I heard her voice, it was really nice, unusually high pitched, soft.
And then I realised I'd been stood there, oblivious, being super awkward, thinking about all this while she's asking me which screening I want to go to. I felt extremely embarrassed, annoyed with myself. I became very self-conscious, very aware that I hadn't shaved, had worn my scruffy clothes, hadn't brushed my teeth after lunch. I thought about how normal, undamaged she likely was, and how she doesn't need my honeysuckle in her life. I should just buy my ticket and walk away, fade into anonymity. And I did.
And here I am one less possible friend, one less potential uplifting relationship, and likely one of many similar situations to come.
I hope I can get past this one day. It would have been nice for her to know my name, remember me.
