some days... by crovvn

are just plain weird. man.

it's not like i had a BAD day. had a good time with friends later on, pretty decent day at work, but it was just.
you know those days where it's just really hard to be you?
that was one of those days.

i felt really tied up. really stuck. i had too many obligations, too many expectations, i had the feeling of people making me out to be an ideal that i just can't BE because i'm not perfect, i'm real bad at doing basic things like paying proper attention to people over things like work. i get really detached. i get to points where i don't want to be emotionally connected to anyone because they end up wanting more than i'm able or wanting to give and i don't know what to DO about it when it happens!

because it's not my fault and it's not their fault and it's just difficult accepting that this is who i am and, well, i've just got to make the best of it. improve when i can. make compromises and be the bigger man when i have to. being me isn't bad. being me is ok. i don't have to change for people. i don't want people to expect me to change for them, and even when i know they don't i feel like they want me to and want me to give things i just CAN'T give because i'm not built or made or equipped with all these things people want me to give to them. i don't think or feel the way people want me to and i don't know how to make them understand that without them either making it out to be my fault or making me hate myself again because i think that, yeah, maybe it is myself.

these days, i really just have to remind myself that, like. no. i will not hate myself again. i have spent goddamn years learning how to not hate myself. i'm taking even longer to learn how to LIKE myself, to like myself more than a sort of indifferent shrug, a thought of "eh, i'm pretty decent sometimes, i look cute a few days of the week, that's cool". i have made so many mistakes and have set myself back years by having a toxic outlook on life and just making bad decisions but like hell am i going to just stop doing that because i'm anxious and i worry and i want people to like me.

i'm made up of contradictions, but that's okay. i'm not perfect, i'm not 100% sure of what i am beyond a thing that exists and does things sometimes, but that's okay. i will not unravel.

some days...

              mhm! i'm real lucky that i'm a pretty outgoing and energetic person by default, i try to involve myself in leadership roles and projects to sorta motivate myself like....SEE LOOK. YOU HAVE RESPONSIBILITIES, NOW YOU HAVE TO GO PUT PANTS ON. but sometimes that doesn't work and i'm just an unproductive blob of nothing. bleh!!

                  i'm an extrovert so interacting and speaking to/with people isn't much trouble for me, thankfully! it's usually when people try to get more emotionally invested in me that things start to get weird. because i'm weird when it comes to Feelings And Things.
                  it rly does tho!! especially when there's work that you really have to get done but you're just like. no. noooo. nno no.
