Life is the sort of thing where stuff you don't want to happen... happens

This is going to be a personal but fcuk it.


A few months ago, shortly after my break-up with my former partner, we shall call this person UX Designer, I met someone else, we shall call this person Recently Divorced.


I met Recently Divorced in October and a few months later, in January, we started dating.


Like everything else in life, things went well until they didn't.


It ended, after a short but intense trajectory, and that was that.


The thing is, unlike me and UX Designer, Recently Divorced and I had indeed a lot in common. We especially had beer in common.


This piece of information will become relevant in two minutes.


I didn't want it to end, but it did, and I was getting over it.


But, like I said, Recently Divorced and I shared similar interests and tended to frequent the same places, which is why one day, out of the blue, Instagram had a 'SPONSORED' post in my feed for me.


The sponsored post in question was a promotional post for a new bar/pub in town, which, ordinarily, really is my jam.


Except... said post had a picture of Recently Divorced having a drink as the main photograph in the gallery.


I'm certainly glad the people who run the place feel that Recently Divorced is attractive enough to star in a photograph that's used as a featured image for a 10-picture gallery for a post that'll be sponsored... but still.


It kinda did feel like insult to injury.


Flipping heck.


Sorry, regular crypto service shall me resumed shortly.
