I needed to hear. She would always advertise something new in her life or an idea of hers. I never paid much attention, or at least I thought. I would make myself look busy, or uninterested. Seeming annoyed by the fact she had interrupted my silence.I would prey on her emotions for self-satisfaction. Things I thought made my day, and helped me to sleep at night. Then you could say a light came on. I realized how much I was dependent upon her companionship. So I changed the only way I knew how. I bombarded her with my wisdom about everything. I began giving her advice even when she didn't ask. At this point she seemed to have had enough of me.Suddenly my thoughts and opinions didn't matter. I had always been too proud to simply say that I was sorry for the years of belittlement. She had built a wall against me. For years I was a bottomless pit of criticism, and rudeness. She always forgave me, letting my hurtful words roll off her back. She wasn't going to take anymore of me.It was then I realized that I had turned her into the callous and emotionless person that I had become years ago. We were then no longer different in any way, but exactly the same. Now us together we're foreign to everyone around us. All I could think was this was not how it should be or was it?The End...
