Weird behavior
My roommate/landlord… roomlord?… has been acting strange the last few months. Sort of like a guy that’s doing steps from AA. He’s been contacting all these people he used to know, sort of making new friendships out of old ones.
I understand it, but only this completely removed, intellectual way. The idea of talking to anyone I knew from “back in the day”, that I don’t already, makes me cringe. Some of them would send me into an outright panic attack.
That’s really only part of it though. People are either loved, unloved, or are akin to furniture. If you’re moved from loved into either of the others, well, I won’t say it’s impossible to get back, but it hasn’t ever happened.
You can see where Aaron’s totally reasonable point of view doesn’t quite mesh with my worldview.
