Seems very clingy and desperate. It makes sense why she hates him.

Itā€™s like some of sidā€™s literary efforts, only good

You would have loved Idiot of the Month.

Was she tasty?

Reading this post again reminded me of something on Sunday. A bit of symmetry with another human. I was running a race in Spain and hit a bad spot, there was a cheering point 2 miles from the finish and this lady of around 30 with a green wig on who was leading the crowd cheering with a megaphone, whatever way she looked at me, we caught each others eye. She was a bit haggard looking, but yet strangely attractive to me. It was instant, she understood, what I was going through and came over to me, she placed her hand on me and rubbed the small of my back, like a mother, and ran along side me for around 30 metres. There was a look of compassion, but also, a look that said, ā€œtassotti, you got this, you have come too far, finish the jobā€ no words were spoken, they didnā€™t need to be, it was spiritual, it was primeval, it was magic. A very private moment between 2 complete strangers. Was it compassion, was it love? who knows? God bless that lady wherever you are

It certainly wasnā€™t love on her part anyway. She couldnā€™t move you on quick enough by the sounds of it.

Oxymoron

Fair play running the race mate with all the drinking and the drugs.

Did she rob your phone?
