i’ve just dated men where i felt like i was on an audition. that i had to audition for a place in their heart. i had to show that i was perfect, and that i was perfect for them, and that i could be the perfect girlfriend. it was a lot of work. feeling like i had to tip toe and question which pieces of me to show or hide so that i didn’t come off the wrong way. didn’t want to be too strong or too weak. too smart or too dumb. too outgoing or too shy
it was exhausting. and now that i see where i am, i know that it’s unnecessary
because it’s either i like you and you like me and we fit, or there’s no need to waste each other’s time.
Thissssssssssss.
