A story of a very short-lived friendship

RondackHiker

So we've been here a month and I still haven't met anyone but residents. They're all busy 24/7. I'm feeling lonely. I miss my friends.

I got really excited at the park today. I heard a mom tell her son, who looked like DS's age, not to tell any more strangers about his penis.

I made a joke that my son liked to tell little old ladies about his penis. She laughed. We smiled at each other. Our kids approached one another.

I threw up in the trash can. She stepped back and snatched her kid away. I opened my mouth to explain, and got sick again instead.

I continued to get sick while she rushed away with her kid, probably to complain on social media about infectious people being out in public.

Friendship failed.
