High Fidelity

It's bound to happen, really. After a while people tend to just move on. They move on from everything they've known and held dear, from old friends and old homes and old jobs. Even old lovers are bound to move on eventually. I guess it just sucks sucks being the one who hasn't yet. Especially when she's moving on to a friend of yours. And there's not really anything at all you can do about it. They both know it hurts you. They both know they shouldn't. But they do, and they keep going, and they share the happiness that only brings you pain. What else can you do but sit in the basement bedroom of your grandma's house playing war with your high school friend, wishing you could forget but knowing you never will. Knowing that in a way you don't want to, that feeling the loneliness even as you're getting drunk with your friends is the only thing you have left of her, and you can't give that up just yet.
