i used to be so scared:

I used to be so grateful when a guy liked me. So thankful he had put his attention on me. Until one day, I grew up and became a bit more discerning. I realized that I have a say in who I let into my life. That they should be so lucky to be inside me and a part of my world. Just because they were skinny or stylish or just, well, a dude- didn't mean they were the be all, end all. just because they were men, and spending time with me, didn't mean they were gods and that i had to be appreciative of the fact that they chose me. me! i don't know exactly WHEN i realized that I'm just as important as i thought they were, but I'm so happy that day came! it's changed me forever and for that i am grateful! Unfortunately, I really love make outs- so I still made out a ton after i had this epiphany! But at least it was much more thought out and i was the one doing the choosing.
