List of Grievances

Can I just list the things I let slide?

  1. You voted for the Cheeto.

  1. I needed you after I was assaulted, and you just made jokes and ignored my calls.

I listened to everything you said, all your experiences and insights. And you told me how much you appreciated that I cared enough to ask the questions and hear the answers. You told me it wasn't a problem to give me this time because you could tell I truly wanted to understand. And then, maybe naively I tried to bring those insights into my work.
