Show off!

Argh!!
They just had to do that
A bloke gets in touch with me just to show off
My reaction....
Zilch
The whole event doesn’t warrant any reaction especially after the amount of work they put into getting one
Of all things to do- they call me up to sort of ask how I am so that I ask back how they are
So I go thru the rigmarole just so that they get to what they’ve got to announce
Then, eventually they come clean after a bit of prodding just to give them a bit of the sought after satisfaction
And then…….
It's priceless their reaction when I didn't react
So what if u now have that and i don't have
Hellllo
When was I ever materialistic?
It's saddening when I look at the whole picture
There’s like only two people who’ve said congrats on that and people have to search for a third
Now, that’s not wrong actually
How they go about it is the weird and wrong way
Why not just come out in the open and say
VIOLA!
That way I have no time to doubt and dig into what u’re up to
I just react like a normal person and congratulate you
Then maybe depending on what mood I’m in I just might still let u know I’m in ur secret
Maybe, but not always
Try it
It has healthier results
And trust me, the smiles will be genuine.
