last night i went to my home town and saw a girl (well, woman) who i hadn't seen since 2001. she has been married and divorced, has 2 kids from her first marriage and a 3rd kid from another fella who is no longer with her. i said hello and we got chatting, she then said (in quite a cutting way) oh, you're single at 30 then, why haven't you got a girlfriend. i then proceeded to say i didn't want one, and have fun living the single life. she seemed to think that as i'm 30 that this was a bit weird and did start giving me a bit of grief about it. i then came out with the comment of something along the lines of ''just cos you've screwed your life up in your 20's and then again in your 30's, don't come having a go at me''. she then started to cry, her 2 friends started calling me some quite nasty names and the fella of one of her mates offered me outside to which i told him o grow up (i later found out he was in his 40's). i did and still do feel bad about her crying but what was i supposed to do? listen to her drill me. i suppose really i should have walked away but i felt i had a right to say what i did, so i did!
