Has this ever happened to you?

Someone saw me in a store and instead of saying hello, she turned and went the other way QUICKLY to avoid me.

I'm sure she saw me. She turned her cart around, her son looked confused, and when she turned to talk to him I could see that her face was all tense and she was making a weird face when she talked to him. I could see half of her face. I've made that face before when I'm telling someone to hurry up, or don't look now but there is so-and-so.

We were best friends in elementary school, but lost touch when we went to different high schools.

I ran into her a couple of months ago at a cafe, thought it might be here, but went on my way. But before I left, I told myself, "You need to go back and say hello. You're only on this earth once. You should see if it's her. You'll regret it if you don't. You may never see her again."

So we talked for a few minutes that day and agreed that we would have coffee or lunch sometime soon with two other girls who were part of our group back then. And we friended each other on Facebook to stay in touch.

It just really bugged me that she so was so obvious about getting away from me.

I was already in my agitated/irritated/furious mood since I was going to about 6 stores last night looking for a certain item (there is another thread about that).

By the time I saw her do this, I thought, "Oh, f*** it. Not only am I failure in everything in life, now someone who knew me better than anyone else in the word at one point wants nothing to do with me." So I turned around and walked out of the store.

She got super-religious, so maybe she is offended by my posts on Facebook. I post whatever pops into my head. Usually friends are entertained and tell me I'm funny, which is odd since I'm just *****ing. They think my rotten life is funny.
