Truth serum

I decided to tell the truth.

And I think it backfired.

I went on a truth telling rampage, telling The Older Man I didn't think "we are on the same page" because I don't think I can realistically date a sober vegan. Call it a shortcoming of mine. I call it being honest at the outset for once, before anyone's feelings get hurt.

Then I told the man from Chicago, the one who moved South right before I did, the one who I began seeing again early this year before he 'Shushed' me and I assumed he didn't like me much, but then he continued to invite me down to see him. I told him the truth and now he wants to talk about it.
