Oh, thank you. My life is changed. Did I say you shouldn't try...?

I mean nobody knows what another is going through but the only thing one can do is try or maybe not. Both don't matter in the end. We live a story where only the ending is known.

You didn’t say, it, but you sure did seem to imply it. If that wasn’t your intention then what was the point of your comment?

Boredom. I think I was wasted. Honestly, that night was a blur of blackjack and hookers.

I wasn’t trying to convince anyone lol. But how is just saying it’s difficult supposed to be constructive?
