Stigma.

meeting for the first time led to nothing but great disappointment, especially when neither side was being open about it. he hid to the very last minute like there were secrets they share, she chickened like there were something triggering her guilt. felt like a third person, she kept her pain to herself. for a connection they shared she never approved but tried to accept, the first impression they left only cause her to despise it even more. a distress she doubt will leave her, ever.
