you're once, twice, three times a man

if i don't mention much bout the guy based in missouri it's 'coz for the most part, i don't really talk to him at all. but yet it was an unsaid understanding that if he were to come back, we would catch up again.

recently i received a message from him saying that he was headed back for a week and i agreed to meeting up. it's been 3.5 years, i never quite realised just how long it has actually been and i reckon a lot can change in that length of time.

one of the most obvious changes was his size. he was literally, i kid you not, 3 times the man he used to be. it was scary. i nearly couldn't recognise him! the other thing that changed was that he seemed to be more annoying than before. it just got increasingly hard to tell whether he was joking or not and it was hard to get straight answers out of him. when faced with such people, i tend to pull out all the stops and go hard, matching sarcastic statements and silly answers with a straight face. apparently he must like that 'coz he mentioned bout how he likes that i'm one of those people with a good sense of humor. i guess some things don't always change.

he also continued to ask me to move to missouri and in general i sometimes got the feeling that he would have still been semi attracted to me. then again i did just bout still maintained the size i was 3.5 years ago.
