"Sometimes I thought she might honestly like me, which was so ridiculous is almost could have been true. Empirically speaking, she really couldn't: we hardly talked, she knew almost nothing about me besides my first name, and I was drunk every time she saw me. But you can never tell with these things. People get stupid and delusional, sometimes on purpose. It's an easy way to turn a casual nothing of a relationship into some tragic half-assed epic, an excuse to use words like love and loss and get melodramatic about the life you wish you were leading. It's the poor man's English Patient starring somebody you never really cared about anyway."
