"Describe yourself when you're alone," he said, looking at me expectantly.

"Lonely," I said, looking down.

He was probably expecting some extravagant answer, but that's all I really had to say.

"You depend on other people?"

Well, that's an easy answer.

"Yes."

And now he's probably gonna scold me and tell me how I shouldn't.

"I do too. Couldn't even get better. Had to get a girlfriend in order to 'find myself,' but honest truth is I just found her. Don't know too much about myself."

This was taking an odd turn. I liked talking to him though.

"I'm very self-aware I just long for someone else to complete me. I feel lonely when I know that I have no eyes lingering on me."

He started laughing. "I feel out of place when people are looking at me."

It's a weird thought, for me at least, to not enjoy getting attention from people. "I might just be the biggest narcissist. I have a big problem with thinking I'm better than everybody else. I've got a huge ego and I can't tell you where it came from."

He sighed. "I don't think there is anything wrong with seeing yourself better."

"Don't encourage it because I see everything wrong with it." I started to get up, but he started talking again, quickly beckoning me to continue talking with him.

"I'm sorry you're lonely, but the only way to get over that is to find someone, in your case. You ought to do just that."

Now I could see where this is going. "And you're that someone I assume?"

He acted offended, "What? Me? I'm just doing what I can to get out of here and get better. I'm not looking for a girlfriend."

"Who said anything about girlfriend?"

He started blushing.

"Hey, I'm just messing with you. I'd be lucky to be your girlfriend. You were just hurting my ego a little bit."

His mood changed quick. "Hey, I don't know if this is such a good idea with the state of mind we are both in."

As if that would put an end to this.

"Good idea or not, I'm not gonna stop this if you're aren't."

He started smiling. I could change his moods changed quick, but it kept me interested. Usually I get up and leave conversations around now, but now I was too intrigued to just leave.
