Too Late to Ghost Him — The High School Lie

Back then I was in high school. My parents had just divorced. life was miserable i spent every night on playing with strangers just to feel less alone where i met damien i figured it still counted as a relationship even if we'd never met face to face

dopamine was dopamine it made me feel something for a little while but i was careful i lied about my age told him i just graduated college never gave him my real name unlike most people i never sent photos never answered his video calls the only thing i allowed was a 30 minute voice call every night damien on the other hand gave me everything he was always worried i didn't have

have money to eat so he'd randomly send me money for reasons so ridiculous they were almost funny the amounts were insane i always sent it all back just wanted someone to talk to at night wasn't gonna marry the guy his money not my problem then he got clean one day he said he wanted to meet i had two weeks till finals meet in person yeah no i thought about it forever then

i typed it out no point meeting up i'm kind of over this let's end it hit send blocked him on social media unfriended him everywhere deleted every message i figured damien would have moved on by now, but from the way Mrs. Moretti talked about him, he hadn't, not even
