Have you ever said to yourself, "No one likes you anyway. They don't care"?
I have. Several times.
Each time I withdraw within myself a little more. I won't bother them. They don't want to talk to me. They'll just judge me a little more.
But I know the truth.
People do love me, and they love me a lot. Just because I can't see it now doesn't mean it's not there. I can approach and say hello because they don't judge me as much as I think they do.
It's not my fault.
It probably has nothing to do with me.
And yet.
I still blame myself, doubt myself.
These lies build up within myself.
And I Withdraw.
