things i hate about me...

how i can never say exactly how i feel. how i have the ability to say the wrong thing at the wrong time. how sometimes i'm too sensitive, and when someone asks what's wrong, i say nothing. this empty feeling i have right this moment. just when i'm happy and accepting of my body, none of my clothes fit. the negative voices always screaming at me from the inside. how i don't have the answers to "what's wrong? why are you like that? where do you want to be in 5 years?" i always fall in love with the wrong person. my lack of girlie-ness. how i feel like i need to shave my legs again like a day and a half later. i'm so awkward on dates. i have no concept of when to make a move. that sick feeling i get in the pit of my stomach when a date is going in a good direction. how i see the end of a relationship before the relationship begins. the sadness i feel when he leaves. i tune out when certain people talk. i daydream instead of listen. my inability to retain information. how i've changed from extroverted and obnoxious to introverted and passive. i can't walk in heels - i don't even like how my feet feel in flats. food is one of the few things that make me incredibly happy. i like when other people make decisions for me. i'm too accomodating. i miss out on things i really love because whoever i'm with isn't interested. i'm never going to be good enough for myself. my hair cannot handle arkansas humidity. i can't dance (but who can, really?). i can't talk to anyone about this. not because i think they don't care, but because i can't verbalize how miserable i am sometimes. i'm tired of the advice on how i could make everything all better if i would just eliminate people or things from my life. those people and things are what make me, me. i would be a black hole without them, sucking in all around me and discarding nothing. how i get annoyed with my roommate for nothing other than the fact that we spend too much time together sometimes. i want so badly to be in love and have that love returned.

who can fix this other than me? i just feel defeated. alone. empty. tired of giving and giving and giving when no one gives back.

I've been talking to my aunts and uncles, mom and dad again.
I've been finding out that I have what this world calls friends.
I've tried to push them all away,
They push me back and wanna stay
And that's one good thing I have.

I'm gonna feel a peace in me,
I'm gonna feel at home.
I'm gonna make this cloud above me disappear, be gone.
I wanna feel a punch inside, my heart beat on the floor.
I don't wanna hurt no more.
blue october - it's just me
