Instead of returning the slaves to their masters, the commander of the fort, Benjamin Butler, claimed the slaves were contraband of war and put them to work in support of the United States. The slaves stated that they were about to be sent South to work on the Confederate coastal defenses in the Carolinas. However on May 22, three runaway slaves approached Fort Monroe along the James River seeking refuge. In some cases, troops with more abolitionist leanings would aid the runaways, but it was not yet the norm. Prior to then, slaves who escaped into Union lines could be returned to their masters. On May 22, 1861, this attitude towards slavery began to change. Army moved into states in rebellion, generals ensured civilians that they would not interfere with slavery, and would even hep quell potential uprisings. Of course, at the time of this address, Virginia, North Carolina, Arkansas, and Tennessee had yet to secede, so he needed to keep a moderate stance. In fact, in his first inaugural address, Abraham Lincoln promised not to interfere with slavery in the places where it already existed. When the Civil War first broke out, the United States Army sought to preserve the Union, and did not have intentions on interfering with the institution of slavery in the rebellious states. But there are just days I want to be someone's first pick and I'm not. What makes it harder is that expressing that I feel alone and unwanted makes me sound jealous and like I don't want my friends to hangout with their people. The sad thing is that the only part that ever truly ends up bugging me is that since I am single, they are my go-to top priorities and it has been really hard to watch myself slip from the top of their go-to's to not being their go to when they feel the weight of the world.

All three of my roommates have boyfriends/girlfriends, which makes our friend group of four quickly jump to seven, and it is wonderful! I love my roommates so much and I love their S.O's, but no matter how much I love them I always get extremely jealous and sad. We are all roommates and it is a great time here. For context, my primary friend group consists of four people. If you are anything like me, complaining about being single is such a hard thing to because you are genuinely happy for your friends, but as they continue to be happy in their relationships, the ever crushing weight of being the single friends can become overwhelming.
