Dear Brewtiful,

Twenty years ago, there was someone. We never put a label on it, but it was something. Mercury retrograde hit — don't judge me — and I reached out. She wrote back warmly, we caught up. And then she mentioned the girlfriend. I'm asexual. I've been celibate for six years. I made peace with all of that. So I don't understand why I'm annoyed. Why does this still have teeth?

Mercury retrograde didn't make you do it. You did it. And that's actually the more interesting problem.

Mercury was a convenient excuse and you know it. You reached out because some part of you wanted to. The sting isn't that they have someone. The sting is that they were warm with you first — and then the door closed anyway. That warmth is doing a lot of heavy lifting here...
