This will be the death of me.

I am sick of getting to know someone.  Meeting them, greeting them, and really taking the time to get to know them.

But I'm getting ahead of myself, surely.  Because SOMEHOW, the question comes up. 

It starts out innocent. Maybe you asked what they're interested in. Invariably, the answer is somehow(in my fucking case) "JESUS!!!!"

"Oh, cool. So you're pretty active in Church and stuff?"(me trying to keep it flowing)

"Yep, absolutely.  How do you feel about that?" (Phase one: Attack)

"What, being active?" (Phase two: attempted dodge.)

"No, Church, and God and Jesus." (Phase three: FUBAR)

"Oh, I'm not religious myself."(Phase fail: fuck my life)

"Oh." (Phase five: extricate and evacuate)

Dude, so I don't get it. I don't know what to do? Lie? I do that too much as it is.  And to be honest, when I'm meeting people is when I'm lying the least.  And besides! This girl was way pretty, very witty, and of the most enjoyable disposition.  I'm not going to lie to someone like this.

But no.

I'm honest, get burnt, and am left feeling like I need to write on FML.

Shit.

*Disclaimer: For serious, this isn't me hating religion, Jesus, or Christians. Don't be ignorant. It's me hating the prejudice against those that aren't you. It's killin me, smalls.
