Rejection
I recently had my first true romantic relationship since Jean passed away. It was lovely and lasted about 4 months and she broke up with me last week. I've had relationships which didn't work out but this was the first time I had been outright rejected since my senior year in high school. I've grown in wisdom since then but it is still a shock to the system. Once again I wonder at the challenge of getting what I know in my head through to my heart.
