Recently, I’ve befriended this guy during my math class. I’ve always known of him since all of my friends are his friends, and he always appeared to be this average, hilarious, nice, druggy guy, which he is, but at the same time he is so much more. I like his presence more than he likes his own.
One day, he looked over to me and just goes “you are depressed or have been” and I was shocked. Then he was like “you used to cut” just sort of guessing facts at me. And I asked him how he knew and he told me that he just knew, that he could tell. He randomly blurted out facts to me about how he stopped cutting last year and how he just punches things now. I was wearing shorts and he saw my scars spread out all across my thighs and he said, “weird place…but I guess that’s sort of the point.” He drew a smiley face on my scars and told me to be happy.
I feel like he can see right through me so often.
Today, I was in a horrid mood. Instead of being obnoxious like most people ar ein that class, he just sort of let me be and although he wanted me to be happy, he treated me like he usually does, a lot of innuendos and jokes and whatever. But he’s really great, and I do mean really.
I’ve never known anyone to just pick up on subtle hints in my personality or my scars or anything. Then I come to wonder if its that obvious to everyone..

I think people who have gone through the same things can identify people like themselves.
He sounds like a really great guy and a really good friend. 🙂
