I had a crush on a guy who was with someone else. Knowing this, and to comfort myself, I headed to the local Seven Eleven for some Ben & Jerry’s ice cream (my drug of choice back then–Cherry Garcia, one of the very fewy flavor those guys had back then)

And coming back from Seven Eleven a song wafted from a passing car. And it was at that moment when I realized: “Shit. It’s never gonna happen, is it?”
