wake up
I’m uh, 3 beers deep
scratch that, 3 and a half
idk how much I weigh
somewhere around 130
but uh
I’m almost drunk, on a saturday night
at 8pm
by myself
I have no friends
minus my neighbor who contemplated being with me, and my housemate who I think has contemplated it too
I’ve gotten so far with people I think almost entirely on my appearance
being pretty has it’s perks
but I’m so terribly ugly on the inside
I’ve made at least 3 people, female close friends, hate me in the last 8 months
WHAT AM I DOING WRONG?
I never mean to hurt anyone
but like
I fuck up
all the time
continuously
I think there is something seriously broken inside
or not
maybe being 19 and in college just brings this about in people
but I’m so lonely
it hurts
a lot
and I wish it didn’t
I just want to feel like I’m meant for this. I want to be meant for something
I think I was meant for him
which him? there have been exactly 5 in the last 5 months
well the answer to that particular question would be… I don’t know
that’s the problem really
I don’t know any of the things I’m looking for
I just know that I feel empty
and I keep trying on men like shoes
and some fit
but none of them want me to wear them
most give me blisters
and I’m ready to throw in the towel
slice scars in my face
I don’t want to be pretty or beautiful or sexy. I just want to be me, I want to be wanted for being me. Bright inquisitive eyes, a loving heart, rid of this toxic vanity.
it causes me to carefully measure what I eat
look at my reflections, pictures, gauging how I look to others
I sicken myself sometimes, or maybe often
but I don’t want this
not anymore
too much self inflicted pain

There is somebody out there who will want you for who you are. There may be something else that you’re supposed to be doing in your life now instead of finding that somebody. Life is hard, and a mystery, and never what you expect. There’s lots of people out there that feel just like you do right now. Things will get better, you have a lot of time.

This is beautiful and painfully relatable.
