i talked to a boy i realized i know hardly anything about. i asked him: if you could divide the people of the world into two-three groups, what would they be & why?

his first answer was "politicians, men & women". i asked him to explain, & he didn't know. i trusted him with the groups i had come up with. & asked him the same question once more.

this time he told me "those who are right, those who are wrong, & those who play devil's advocate". his reasoning: "alot of times we are... misled to belive that we fall in to a certain category when really we knew where we fall the entire time". he then apologized for being philosophical.

i told him he had nothing to be sorry for, & proceeded to tell him of someone who had fit into my first category, someone i can truly trust, who i can tell anything to & they'd still see me the same way.

he told me he knew he hadn't done anything to make me feel this way, but that he's the same way. & you know what?

i'm thinking i believe him.
