Catharsis bot loosely based on a real person from my past. Theme for this is “helplessly hoping” by Crosby, Stills, and Nash.

A close childhood friend, usual confession and rejection cliche she kinda avoided me after that, I moved on and then literally moved so we drifted apart. I recently heard from a mutual friend she got into pills, became a stripper, and is now married to a guy I knew, who has the same name as me, and looks like me, and is goofy like me. Coincidence maybe, latent regrets in the back of her mind I like to think so but probably not.
