ON PEOPLE,...WHO TRIED TO MAKE YOU FEEL BAD ABOUT YOURSELF!!

When I was in high school, I sat beside a blond version of Kai. He was so "god-damn-handsome" to me then that I felt my tongue develope a bad case of velcro and it would stick to the roof of my mouth and I could never say a word to him because he was so damn good looking. I was totally in love with the guy,..but even if he had talked to me,..I probably would not have been able to hear a word, that he said to me as I had no hearing aides.
In wild lust-filled moments,..I calmed my thoughts of him by writing dirty poems to him, sonnets--(that was my senior year,..the year ,..that I discovered Shakespeare!), and a dirty limerick, involving the crotch of his pants. He never knew of my passion for him.
The other day,..he brought a copy of the NELLIE ZIMMERMAN STORY for my autograph. I signed it. He said, "Thank you!" Then,..he came back to me looked at me and said to me,"You know...I use to really lie you in high school, but everyone said that you were so damn stuck up 'cause you got good grades, that I was scared to talk to you. I thought that you would put me down 'cause I was what you used to call,..."those dumb jocks!" Meeeeeeeee? Did I say that?
WOULD i HAVE SAID THAT TO HIM? Me with the big nose, elephant ears, squinty narrow eyes,..and pixie glasses? Me,..the girl with the terminal case of "acne?" I used to think that no one spoke to me cause everyone else was stuck up!!
