Sometime last year, I stalked this guy's facebook because I thought he seemed cool. (barely knew eachother, friend of a friend kind of thing.) I saw he had a girlfriend, and I clicked on her page because she had an interesting profile pic. She seemed to have a sense of humor kin to mine, and a blogspot blog, so I checked it out and was hooked immediately. Since then, I follow her blog every couple weeks and her writing is always genuine, inspiring, and fun in a way that I'd like to write someday. They just seem like such a quirky, cool couple... going strong for about a year and a half.
I hadn't checked on her blog for some months. Then today, I noticed that his profile no longer has a "in a relationship with" status... and I freaked out. I looked through his wall history to make sure they were still together and that they had just chosen to omit a relationship status declaration.
(Now, I know you're all on the edge of your seats, so I'll just tell you that I'm fairly certain they are still together.)
I actually went through emotions of panic, targetless anger, and sympathy for a couple I have barely even formally met and who would not know who I was if I walked up to them and said hello.
Who does that? Maybe I need to watch more tv or something.
