I'm content

I saw this on a Facebook post and thought it was the funniest...

funniest haha AND funniest hmmm...

post that this gal could have chosen

to publicly display.

WHY?

Because literally one week before she posted this thing,

I drove three hours to see her...

only to get this when I called to tell her I was in town

 "I woke up in pain.  

I mean I didn't get any sleep.

I'm not up for company.

I meant to text you last night

but must have forgotten."

OKAY...

Not trying to be a literal bitch here

but what is it?

Did you wake up in pain

OR

did you not sleep?

OR

did you really not have any intentions

of spending time with me.

Because I can accept that answer

just a little bit better.

You can't have it both ways.

JUST KNOW THIS

I don't "chase" nor do I want to be "chased."

You made your choice though.

And I'm okay with it.

The day you let me drive all that distance

without a single thought as to the money I spent

in gasoline;

or the time I took away from other people

that actually DID want to spend time with me,

And

I HAD ONE OF THE BEST DAYS!!

See, I was going to see if I could treat you

and your child to lunch.

I thought we could take a drive around town

and see some places that we used to go to.

I thought we might see a friend or two

that we shared from the "good ole days."

I thought we might stop at a park

and relax and "pick up where we left off."

BUT I DID IT WITHOUT YOU.

I took advantage of the day

and saw so many places,

that were once so special to me.

I walked some malls,

did some window shopping,

AND

ate at a restaurant all by myself.

And I didn't die.

It may not have been the best feeling

sitting there all alone

wondering;

but it sure beats the feeling of

dragging my ass out of bed 

before the crack of dawn

and driving three hours

only to find out that you

couldn't be upfront with me;

that my time wasn't worth your trouble.

AND THAT'S OKAY.

Because I'm okay.

And I'm tough.

And I learn from all my mistakes.

YOU'RE STILL THERE.

On my friends list

and I have no intentions of removing you.

Because you are always going to be

that reminder

that people can't always trust

people.

AND AGAIN, THAT'S OKAY.

Because I'm content in my own company.
