Some guy has been asking why I won't see him anymore.

I know who is lonely.
Some guy has been asking why I won't see him anymore.
I pretend to acknowledge him by saying it's because we have nothing in common.
Of course, that's not informative, so he'll just have to guess.
Is he lonely? Should I care? |
