you know who you are


Dear Boy I Met At Fraternity Party My Freshman Year,

I think we need to get some things straight. I know we met. I know we met because I watched you play this ridiculous drinking game and you won. We subsequently had several conversations while you were sober. Somewhere along the line, you began thinking it was okay to pretend like you don't know me on campus. I mean, that's fine. If you want to deny knowing me in public, that's your prerogative. However, when we consistently see one another on our way to mutual classes, it's time to give up the act. As I have found myself having to repeat recently, I am not an awkward person. But the jig is up, sir, and we see each other often enough for you to acknowledge our relationship. This is all I'm saying.


Love,
Mara. that girl you met that one time.

i hope you are a seinfeld fan. if you are you have surely already realized that that nearly this exact same situation happens to elaine in season one's episode "The Ex-Girlfriend". if you are not then you should quickly become one and you can start by watching this very episode (i will provide a link at the end of the comment). i think you will find elaine's actions in this episode very empowering and it might even inspire you to take the same course of action. please enjoy!
