Bitch, where's my shit at? Don't mind the wall or this pimple. I'm changing my skin care routine. I don't know what's wrong with my skin. If you have any recommendations, let me know. Funny story, not so funny story. I dated this girl on and off for years. Gaysha, I don't wanna hear it. No judgment. You know how it goes. Every time she would break up with me, she would take on my clothes, wash them, fold them, put them in a tote bag, give them to me because she no that one, I love my clothes, and it was very difficult for me to find clothes my size at the thrift tier. And I'm not going to the big store just to pay $90 for a shirt best to cut half of that bitch off. Anyways, I digress. The last time we spoke, despite the previous conversation that at all being indicative of the events to follow, she took on my clothes, put them in a ball, and stuffed them in a ShopRite grocery bag. I went to my homegirl and I said, what the fuck? She said, girl, y'all do this shit all the time. They're gonna be fine. In a month, they'll be back together. Worst be a big deal. Whatever. I haven't spoken to her or seen her in three years. I'm driving down the highway a month ago. The song folded comes on immediately triggers me. Fuck. I will. It made me realize we can be friends. We can be friends. Unblock me. Unblock me. We're we're adults. We're different people. I'm a different person. I'm in therapy. You made your point. Unblock me.
