ouch.

so i guessed wrong. yet again. cool girl from work? yep. shes got a boyfriend. i didnt really want to hear many more details about it. just felt generally embarrased about it. spent some time out behind work tonight watching the ducks. we have the airport then lots of greenspace until our property... and in that greenspace is a rentention pond... the ducks like to float around and quack. i sat out there and threw most of a baggie of doritos at them. just the darkness, the ducks and me. i guess i kinda feel dumb for asking... but i shouldnt. and i know that i shouldnt. but thats where i sat, feeling like a retard. watching the ducks huddle up together on the pond. i guess i dont understand why it all looks so easy. why its anything but easy for me. its not true at all that i cant find people. just that.. i guess those are the people that want me the least. so it feels. and i cant really explain that any more plainly that i do. ive always been tought that youre supposed to find this one great person to share your life with. and i watch it happen. and i thought it happened to me. and i watched it fall apart. and i tried. i tried to stop it, i tried harder to change what was going on. i guess to reiterate what i meant. and there i sit alone watching the ducks at night. sometimes i envy the ducks i suppose. ducks dont feel like jackasses for trying not to be lonely. they all just cuddle up together. the ducks dont feel useless for loving someone; sometimes i do. and i shouldnt. i shouldnt feel bad. but its hard to feel much. other than confused and alone. some nights are better than others. sometimes i envy the ducks.
