What lie do you tell yourself most often?
I tend to lie to myself a lot, but I have this one thing pop up in my head when I saw this prompt.
I found myself just automatically forcing myself not to care.
“I don't care anymore.”
“Can't do anything about it now.”
“It had happened already.”
“It didn't mean a thing to me.”
I used care a lot, like a lot. I still do, but now it just feels “odd” if I physically express it.
Little me thought caring was a good.
Like what was I supposed to do? That's all I know at the time.
From time to time, it started feeling like I'm caring too much. We all get that feeling of being “too much” in a way.
In reality, I'm still me. That same girl who actively cares over tiny things.
Someone ignores me and I couldn't tell if they meant it or not? Yes, I probably overthink about it for a few days until now.
That one time I said something that sounded mean? Still remember it now and still blame myself about it.
When I had let down someone who believed in me? Yup, still hurts and I now avoid doing things that will result to that.
Those test I blew off? I would act like it didn't bother me so that I don't have to cry about it.
Just act nonchalant about it, even when you want to talk to someone on how much it STILL bothers you.
I know others experienced this too lol. Maybe one day we could actually care without being viewed as sensitive.
Thanks for reading this btw. Pls excuse my grammar and punctuation. Have a lovely day or night!!! 😚
