I had a "Big Brother" when I was 8 or 9 (probably around 94-95). Parents divorced when I was really young so my mom thought this would be good for me.

I remember the guy being pretty cool at first. I don't remember his age. Maybe late 20s early 30s. He was married. We did a lot of fun activities together for quite a while (maybe close to a year?). Played ball hockey, went skating, went to baseball gamess, went to Big Brother/Big Sister events, hiked, biked, etc.

Then one day we were just hanging out at a park and I almost slipped off the monkey bars I was sitting on top of and accidentally said "fuck!" out loud.

He was apparently taken aback by this and didn't like that I had sworn.

I don't remember much afterwards except the guy literally just stopped hanging out with/contacting me altogether. It's so long ago so I don't remember if he just stopped being a Big Brother or what, but I do remember that was the last time we ever hung out. Never said good bye or anything. Really shitty thing to do to a young kid.

I just quit the program after that instead of finding a new Big Brother.

Yeah, who knows if that was the real reason or not, but being that was the very last time we ever hung out or even spoke again, it definitely stuck out in my mind.
