Confronting Our Angry Neighbors
And Alex came with me because he knew I had a crush on this girl. So he was like, come. I was like, come with. I'm so nervous. We got to her house. We were hanging out. She knew I had a crush on her or whatever. And then I was really quiet because I was nervous. I think I told you this. I was really quiet because I was really nervous. And he wasn't because he had nothing to lose. And then we left. And she texted me. And she's like, hey, I think I'm into Alex. You're just really quiet and really shy. And I'm just into more outgoing guys. And it fucking broke my heart, like broke my heart. Yeah, it was horrible. And I cried. I was crying in my bed, and my dad came to my room, 'cause I was crying, 'cause he heard me, 'cause it was late at night. And he slapped me in the face really hard. No, I'm making this up. I was crying, and he came in my room, and he's like, "What's wrong?" And I explained to him the entire story, in more detail than I have to you. Fucking crazy in detail. Because I really liked her. I liked her because she's— I've never met anybody like her. You know, like I went into it, and I was still crying. And the next morning— and he was like, it's going to be OK. He gave me his whole dad speech. And then the next morning, I was like, oh my god. I was such a fucking bitch. And I couldn't look my dad in the eye. And I was like, I can't believe I fucking did that last night. I can't believe I was such a little wimp. And I felt so weird. And I think from there on out, I started like lashing out. I was like, I'm not this fucking pussy. Oh yeah, I think that— I think that's where, like, I don't know, that could be one of the moments where I was like, oh shit.
