Chasing Whom?
"So there's me an' Amy, and we're all inseparable, right? Just big time in love, then four months down the road, the idiot gear kicks in, and I ask about the ex-boyfriend -- which, as we all know, is a really dumb move -- but, you know how it is, you don't want to know, you just have to know, right? Stupid guy bullshit. So, anyway, she starts telling me about him, how they fell in love, and how the went out for a couple years, and how they lived together. Her mom likes me better, blah, blah, blah blah blah, and I'm okay. But then she drops the bomb on me, and the bomb is this -- it seems that a couple of times, while they were going out, he brought some people to bed with them, menage a trois, I belive it's called. Now, this just blows my mind, right? I mean, I am not used to this sort of thing, right? I mean, I was raised Catholic for God's sakes.
"So I'm totally weirded out by this, right? And just start blasting her, like I don't know how to deal with what I'm feeling, so I figure the best way is if I call her a slut, right?

At that moment, I felt small -- like I'd lacked experience, like I'd never be on her level -- like I'd never be enough for her, or something like that, know what I'm saying? But what I did not get... was she didn't care. She wasn't looking for that guy anymore. She was looking for me [...]. But, by the time I figured this all out, it was too late, man -- she'd moved on. And all I had to show for it was some foolish pride, which then gave way to regret. She was the girl. I know that now. But... I pushed her away.
"So I've spent every day since then Chasing Amy...
"... so to speak."
