Do you feel shame?

Do you feel shame about the person you've been with me?

Do you feel shame about what you did to Doron?

How about Caroline? Do you still know her?

Your lover in Arizona who dumped you in a few days? Any shame there?

Not apologizing to your Mom?

Libby? Julia? Moushoumi?

Kelsey 2x? Do you ever consider apologizing? I'd recommend it. It would give you a new perspective.

The girl who ghosted you in junior high school and turned the entire class against you. Any deep buried guilt there?

Not showing up for grandparents when they were calling out for help with alcohol?

Emily and Hercules? Any guilt for the hours or days or weeks they lost? Or how they spent the last month of their lives before they died and left my life forever?

Are you ashamed of turning your back on me night after night while you were texting with lovers?

Of the thousands of hours you trash talked you husband and best friend the minute I left the room? Of never complimenting me in public once, or allowing me to take photos of the two of us together?

Do you accept any blame for your injuries and illnesses?

Does the fact that your first husband needs full time medical care to survive, and your second husband needs medication to avoid self damage bother you?  Or does it secretly make you feel hot and sexy and like a winner?   Do you ever feel guilty about triumphing over people who are kinder and more beautiful inside and out than you?  

For making $210,000 last year AFTER TAX, which is more than any of your friends, and being so financially untrained that you can’t compute that?  It’s gross. Could you maybe shut up about money?  And apologize to your tribe? 

Never mind. Don't answer. We all know.
