So I tweeting ever more often now since there's no qualms about over-flooding a few hundred people's newsfeeds every single minute.

I saw this random tweet that just gave me this pang of sorrow all of a sudden.

"The scariest thing about distance is you don't know whether they'll miss you or forget about you"

I think of several people who have entered and exited my life for various reasons. Most of them had opted out because we had our differences. Differences that could not be compromised or forgiven. Sometimes I remember the good things we had going on and wonder how would it be if it hadn't turn out this way. There's always that 'what if' and 'could have', you know? 

People might say "You could've stopped them from leaving" but I hadn't the guts and I have this stubborn ego of mine. I always have this reasoning: "If they want to leave, they would. Whatever I do, it won't change their mind. And if it did, they weren't set on leaving in the first place."

Then again, I am wrong.

"If they were planning on leaving, and I didn't stop them, they'd think that I am allowing them to leave. That I didn't value our relationship enough to stop them from leaving."

I think it's a chicken-first-or-egg-first issue here.

Ah well, life goes on.
