The little rich girl mooch and her guapa girlfriends.

I never gave them a chance. I ignored them and they gave me dirty looks.

I would never tolerate that today. From myself or those around me. Those were her friends: I should have welcomed them and made them feel comfortable. Anything less was disloyal of me.

Symptomatic of how little seriousness I awarded that relationship. She wanted me, I was available, and she admired my music. That was terribly self-absorbed of me. I should have committed, or called it off.

Eventually, I did. When the mooching became too egregious, and I'd grown disgruntled over behavioral doublestandards which had originally seemed amusing.

It hurt her, and I regret that. If it makes her feel better, I certainly got mine good, almost immediately after.
