In "Sunday School" I was always forced to listen to how other the kids had personal conversations with god and wondered why the aloof bastard wouldn't talk to me. For a few years I wondered what was wrong with me and tried (was pressured) to trick myself into believing in Him. Though, as I grew older I realized that I wasn't the problem within this scenario.

Clearly, you had nothing in common.

I'm sure he tried to talk to you.

Probably when he was drunk and it was late.

He knew it was a bad idea, so he'd just poke you a bit.

Maybe sent you the odd pic of him looking happy.

He can be happy without you, you know?

He's so over you.
