They went on a friend hang that turned into a date.

Feels, uh... A little weird, the way everything they've said about this person is how much they remind them of me.

Also I would be lying if I said I didn't have a single pang of unlovely feeling in response...!! An ugly internal moment of "wait just because I am not going to date you doesn't mean I think you should date someone else..."

Honestly it's just more proof that saying no was the right choice, I guess. I am a mess 😅 and I prefer to keep my mess contained where possible. Not spilling out and hurting people.
