“The strangest thing. I came to the end of other people so quickly. Each new person was like a glass of water, and at the beginning I was parched, but then each glass tasted a little worse, the water was grittier, and by the end even the first sip was enough to make me gag, you know?” - Arthur Phillips

One of the many glaring flaws in my overflowing toxic cornucopia, is my atrocious inability to maintain interest. Maybe it’s a defense mechanism? Maybe it’s a mutual mismatching of energies? Maybe I’m just an asshole? A self absorbed asshole, to boot. Who knows… the end result is that I unintentionally shit on people’s self esteem, hurt people’s feelings, and make them question why they ever shared any part of themselves with me. If this is you - I’m sorry. I’m trying to fix this less than appealing characteristic. Trying to stay connected, stay interested, and not ghost people. It pisses me off when the shoe is on the other foot, so there’s that.
