I’ve been thinking of the story my sister told me about her friends who have this romantic story about how they met on their website when the truth is similar only plus drugs, alcohol, embarrassment and hooking up. It makes me realize that in truth, most things don’t happen without a little awkwardness or embarrassment. Sometimes, despite an event being weird or unpleasant, the result might end up as one of the best and most important things of your life. It makes me feel better about those moments to realize that probably we all have them and just forget the bad parts either on purpose or over time and it seems like it doesn’t happen that way to anyone else because they leave the incriminating details out. Even if you actually ruin the future you had planned, as long as you live through your mistakes you’ll always have a future ahead of you. That makes me feel a little bit more confident somehow.
