Fact to Face

During the Fall of 2022, I came face to face with my college crush. 

I had not seen this woman since her sister graduated college in 2005.

I ran into her during our college homecoming weekend. 

Back when I was in college, I thought that she was the zenith of finer womanhood. 

I finally ended up telling my crush that I liked her years ago.

She wondered why I did not speak up back then.

I told her that it was hard to saying anything to her when sleazy women were trying to get to me. 

We both laughed and chunked it up as a missed opportunity.

At the time that I spoke with my crush, she was a married woman of 11 years. The moment that I spent speaking with her was a magical moment in time that I will always cherish.

Sometimes it is just good to get things out in the open even if you know that it will not change things for you.
