Haven’t we met before?
October 4th, 2004 byOne of the most common pickup lines I get is “Haven’t we met before?”. Fortunately, I now minimize such situations.
But to answer your question, no, we haven’t met before. We didn’t goto highschool together, we didn’t share the same campus, we didn’t share lunches together. We didn’t have friends in common, we didn’t goto school plays together, we never met up at our highschool graduation. We didn’t go through grief together, we didn’t go through sorrow together, we didn’t lean on each other ever. We didn’t promise friendship forever, we didn’t promise support eternal and we didn’t write to each other every summer. I didn’t keep your gifts, I never carried your letters endlesly, I never memorized your phone number. I never impressed your mom, I never discussed topics with your dad and I was never introduced to your friends. This engraving on my watch doesn’t match who you have with you in your heart.
I’m sorry. You must be mistaken. That photo is not me. Anymore.

A friend and I were just talking about this. How people change.. how it so often happens (at least in our knowledge of ourselves and our friends) at the tail end of college. How, once they change (for the better), they can barely believe who they used to be. alhamdulillah.
