Vlog #19

I found out what Gwen wanted to talk to me about. There have been some dirty rumors going around about her. A lot of people are saying that she slept with Flash and possibly a lot of other guys on the football team. I shouldn't believe them. She would never do something like that, would she? No, they spread nasty rumors about MJ and I and they're just doing the same with Gwen.

Now I see why she refused to tell me. At least MJ and I could tell each other about the rumors and believe each other when we said they were false. Gwen kind of has no one right now. Again, that's as far as I know.

MJ isn't too concerned about her. She believes that Gwen started some of the rumors about us. That might be true, but I don't know. That's the thing about all of these stupid rumors: we don't know who started them and we don't know how truthful they are if at all. However, I'm not just going to walk up to Gwen and ask her if she…did stuff with Flash. It's really none of my business.

She didn't go to school today, which is understandable. If her dad knows about why our breakup happened, then he hates me. Aunt May was a little disappointed in me when she found out, though she felt partially responsible for introducing me to MJ. Uncle Ben would have chewed me out.

Great. I'm a great person. Hopefully Gwen figures things out. I almost feel guilty to say that I don't regret choosing Mary Jane. She's less demanding and doesn't pressure me into making important relationship decisions too quickly.

If I would have stayed with Gwen we probably would've gotten married straight out of high school and then gone to college together. Man that would've required a lot of money all at once. It'd be a mess. She wanted everything sooner rather than later like she was afraid of losing me. Wait, did she know that I would eventually fall for MJ? Was Gwen trying to get me so committed to her to keep me away from MJ? It was only a matter of time before I left her then.

MJ is also less critical of my love of video games and comic books. She's not a fan, but she doesn't brush them off as a waste of time or childish like Gwen subtly did. I think I was too blindly in 'love' with her to notice all of this. Now that I think about it, she was really clingy, too.

Oh hey I better go patrol the city soon. It's getting to that time of night where all the crooks like to come out. Spider-woman is going to teach me how to take them down silently like a ninja.
