Indian Weddings

But it's not my place to say..I never expected you to be the one to run from the untouchable. Not sure if you meant to, or if I heard wrong, but I'm pretty sure you admitted yourself that this thing you're going after was not the one that could bring maximum happiness. It doesn't necessarily mean you're settling for less, but maybe it is. But maybe you didn't mean that. So it's really not my place to say...Do you still write that little thing at the top of your papers? Maybe I'll start doing it too, because you really have your head screwed on right. You have so many awesome things going on for you, there couldn't possibly be any flaw that would hold you back from doing something insane in the future. But it's not my place to say...That night for me was, in a word, revelatory. There were moments when I wanted to talk about our past, no matter how short it was, and moments I tried really hard to not look deep into your eyes, scared that I might crack. Then there were the moments when I think I actually did, and just felt admiration. So maybe I did want to stay up all night catching up, but instead I put up the Great Wall of Friendship like I had never done before to anyone. I did lose myself in deep thought, maybe more than a couple times, so it was probably the first time we hung out where conversations actually stopped for minutes. Yeah, I really miss you, but like you said, she has nothing to worry about. And neither does he. And that's something I'd like to think I have a place to say.
