I FELT LIKE AN ASSHOLE

I was just chillin with my coworker and she was oddly quiet

I asked her if she was upset and she didn’t say anything

But I was just trying to start up casual conversation. I didn’t even know she had a boyfriend. And I was like “I just realized the other day that in January I will have been with my boyfriend for 4 years and I think that’s crazy. It doesn’t feel that long” and she was like “my boyfriend of one year broke up with me last night”

And I died a little inside. I was like “I’m so sorry. I wouldn’t have mentioned that if I knew. I know break ups suck”

And she was like “yeah😔”

I didn’t say anything else to her

I really had no idea. I thought someone else at work had upset her. The one thing I had to talk about was something that was bad to talk about at that moment. The day before we had talked a lot and she already knew everything that was happening with me recently. I didn’t want to repeat.

I was thinking to myself in my head “this is why you don’t have friends”😭
