When the only person that matters to you’s 29 year old ex-coworker says that you are “a lot”, you may realize that you aren’t as palatable as you thought.
I always thought I was extremely likeable. I mean maybe not extremely but I always thought I have a good first impression. And maybe I am intense, maybe I shouldn’t of told the waiter that one of the oysters tasted like “dirty pussy” or I shouldn’t of asked him what type of porn he watches. But, that’s me. And I can’t change it.

about two or three months into my new job my coworker told me when i first started she didn’t think i liked her. i asked her why and she said well you seemed cool and confident and sure enough of yourself that you didn’t feel the need to go out of your way to impress or please people. to be honest this was kind of shocking at first because i wasn’t rly sure how they were perceiving me but to be fair i spent those first couple months being so hard on myself to let my personality come through in an authentic way and i guess it worked! i think taking the time to learn and understand yourself is truly a blessing and somewhat a curse but this meant a lot to me

To truly accept ourselves we have to stop thinking about what others think of us. Period. It doesn’t matter that your crush didn’t like you back. That you’re not your boss’s favorite employee. That you aren‘t your best friend’s best friend. (Although if this is happening to you, find someone who appreciates you equally). What matters is how YOU see yourself. You become what you believe.

My favorite thing in getting to know new people is finding out the things they enjoy that seem a bit out of character. I think it’s comforting and a bit sexy when not everything that they like has to be “cool” for them to really enjoy it. Being self-assured and knowing your worth is hot.
After all, life is too short to try and shape yourself around a mould that doesn’t truly resonate with you. Just enjoy the things that bring you joy without caring if they are basic or lame to others. you can enjoy the band that everyone hates, enjoy the movies that people think are overrated, and wear the shirt that went out of style 5 years ago.
true authenticity is a rare trait, always has been. It’s like striking gold when you find that inner peace to just be yourself, regardless of how cringy others find it. Find the peace to like what you like without shame.

Not to feign poverty, or as the less articulate call it “cosplaying poor“, but why would I spend 30 dollars on a entree im gonna pick at when I can scarf a grilled cheese on the corner of Roebling and Broadway.
Just got my resy notification. Facing the idea that I will have to eat something in order to not appear like an admirer of Cassie from ‘Skins’. Especially because he’s seen me puke my gin martini on myself at Clandestino because I didn’t eat dinner. Feeling disgusting and glutenous already.
Need a cocktail.
