Hi Unicornmeadows,

Dollars to donuts he WILL come back into your life one day. One day when his family issues, or whatever issues he has in his life is resolved (or resolved enough for him to be bored with it) he will think of you. You will probably be happily married with two kids and a white picket fence complete with a dog. A Labradoodle, to be precise.

You will answer the space-age communication system (or whatever we’ll have five to ten years in the future) and be surprised and only mildly curious that it’s him.

He will be insultingly surprised that you have clearly and successfully moved on. That you haven’t been pining for him all these years after all, that you weren’t eagerly anticipating his space-call.

Well, that’s the way it happened to me. (Only I just had email and a beagle).

Best,

Inky
