atypical

i found this site on tumblr called psychofactz. it's pretty interesting. you learn unusual things. such as "if imagine you hear your name being called when it hasn't been, that it's likely a sign of a healthy mind." which was super interesting to me because i just had this experience last week. to the amusement of a few of my co-workers. now i get to go back to work and tell them that i'm not nuts- i've got a healthy mind. ha.

so, another interesting fact i read was this: It takes the typical person 17 months and 26 days to get over someone they were in love with.

which tells me two things. one, that i'm quite atypical. because at 17 months and 26 days, i was only starting on the adventure of getting over "him."

two, that he never really loved me at all. which yeah, i knew. i figured that out some time ago, actually. it was the only thing that fully explained how it all went. but, even while my head knew that, sometimes even now, my heart still hates admitting that. so it's good when you get some outside reinforcement of it. like this fact tells me. because he didn't waste more than a moment getting over me before moving onto shiny penny girl. and well, you know. a normal person who was in love, really just can't do that.

and i know that, because darn it, i TRIED. i super really tried to move on. and i have to really apologize to some really fine people whose minds i messed with.

so now i know. i'm atypically slow. darn near retarded atypical, i guess.

and he was... well, i guess i have to say it. he was quite typical of a man who wasn't in love.

oh well, i guess. btw, another psychofact: "psychology says, the person you care about the most can literally shatter your confidence with their opinions."
