Have you seen this?”
My best friend tilted her phone so I could see what she was talking
about. There was a black Reddit “Am I the Asshole” thread taking up the
screen.
We were in the hospital cafeteria on our lunch break.
“What is it?” I asked, squeezing ketchup on my fries.
“Just read it,” she said. “I’m sending you the link.”
She thumbed it in and it came through.
I picked up my drink and held the straw of my iced tea between my teeth
while I read. The moment I hit the second paragraph my eyes went wide.
“Oh my God…” I breathed.
“Right? And here I thought you were the only one with that good luck
charm thing.”
“It’s a gift,” I said. “Not for me, but my exes are happy.” I sipped my
drink and kept reading. When I finished, I set my phone down. “Not the
asshole.”
“Totally agree,” she said. “Have you seen that billboard?”
“No.”
“I googled it. Look.”
She held her phone out again and I almost choked on my laugh. “That
poor guy.”
“I would never do you dirty like that,” Maddy said.
“I hope not. I couldn’t live without you.”
She grinned and took a bite of her veggie wrap.
“It’s weird you guys both have the same thing going on,” she said, after
she swallowed. “All your exes, just riding off into the sunset.”
“Ha. I wonder how many weddings he’s had to be in,” I said, pulling the
pickles out of my chicken sandwich and putting them on her plate.
She nodded at my phone. “You should ask him.”
I gave her a look. “Just DM him?”
She shrugged. “Yeah, why not? Guys love it when girls slide into their
DMs,” she said. “Seriously. Ask him. Lunch is boring. It’ll give us
something to do.”
I sighed. “All right. One message.” I wiped my fingers on a napkin,
picked up my phone, and swiped open my Reddit DMs.
His handle was just_in_267. I wondered if his name was Justin. My
handle was Emma16_dilemma. I hadn’t changed it since tenth grade. I
probably should.
I started typing.
I have the same problem you have. It’s happened seven
times in the last four years. We break up and the guy is
married within six months. Do they ask you to be in their
weddings too? I’ve been asked to be a bridesmaid three
times
I hit send. “There. I sent it, a message to a complete stranger.” I set my
phone down. “It sort of feels like something my mom would do.”
Maddy scoffed. “If this were Amber, she’d spend all her rent money on
a psychic who paints portraits of your soulmate and then sends you the
same painting she sends everyone else. That’s what Amber would do.”
I didn’t laugh. It was too true to be funny.
My cell pinged. “That Reddit guy just replied,” I said.
Maddy stopped with her wrap halfway to her mouth. “What’d he say?”
I clicked on the message.
