I Care What People Think
We’re not supposed to worry about what others think of us, right? From an early age, we are taught to ignore bullies and not care what everyone else thinks or says about us because who cares what they think? Just do your own thing and if they don’t like you then screw them. It’s not their place to judge us. That’s so easy to say. But the truth is, I always did care. I would say screw them in my mind, but I would still secretly have so many negative thoughts about myself. Kids would whisper to each other in front of me. “Are they talking about me?” Someone might laugh and I would wonder if they were laughing at me. Crazy, right?
