Looking back at everything from 10+ years ago:
I liked all my friendships from this time; I liked everyone on here, I only wish they got on still as often but too much time has passed and we're all adults/ have passed on. However, I guess some of those things weren't meant to be. My friend/relationship with "mike" was doomed to fail and I can only say that now after it having only been over 3 years and me being married to someone else. With a series of affairs, breakups and uprooted lifestyles. We were codependent, toxic and fell out of love long after we met for the first time. We were across the country after all, how I didn't see it was anyone's guess. Thanks for everyone else who stuck by me and continue to even after a decade+ of that mess. I wonder if I've changed much like how Tory used to describe me... Am I still nice and sweet? Low and cruel are moreso synonymous with me now. Could that just be a past relationships effect on me, or maybe is that age.. I'm not 15 anymore. Is my personality still my highlight- lord knows my boobs aren't anymore LOL.... I wonder if she even still remembers me. I still think about her. But I'm grown now, a busy healthcare slave who just wants the best for my husband and me. What would've life been like if it was us and not "mike" or anyone else.. would she have come to see me? Maybe we could've been roommates or even more and disappeared to Asia like we wanted to? Or am I being creepy AF LOL... I wonder. I wish I could go back and relive these times but being who I am now, I know I could've changed the outcome of a lot of things. But then again.. who wouldn't want to do that. sweatdrop

I miss you Tory, and I miss the old Symone too. Everyone said she was cringe but she was happy, free and unapologetically genuine. I wish I could go back to that and be around people that were like that with me and loved and appreciated me back then for the me not many saw. I wish
