Heartbreak

One of the main laws of holes, I was told, is if you found yourself in one, stop digging.My situation with Angela was not explicitly a ‘hole’ situation. From my assessment, Angela was a beautiful, mature and intelligent woman suffering from unrequited love. What to do?

Angela and I had met at our company’s retreat that weekend. She worked in one of our regional offices in Kampala, Uganda. In less than a day, I had known all about her. She poured her heart out for me by the poolside that evening as we sipped a glass of wine. That her boyfriend was the sort of a guy who cared less about her. That she was looking to marriage and which she thought he cared less about. Generally, their relationship was drifting.
