      Honestly this at 30 I'm still working on and truly it's because some of us don't have balance for some there's been more lovelessness then love and acceptance so out of fear it becomes almost like an unrealistic control of how we want to be wanted by others or that someone but I say unrealistic because you can't control the way you are valued this world Is certainly not even

      I Remember being in Marching Band in high school. We went to Band of America (to preform the marching show ‘Artworks’) and we didn’t place super high, we weren’t able to Polish up the ending before hand, and we knew we could of done better, but all the audience was doing was Cheering. When we came up to the seats, they were chanting ‘red, yellow, blue, green’ over and over, (based on the dance break Sequence were everyone chants those colors repeatedly and we do a little dance, words can’t do it justice) all I’m saying is they didn’t care we didn’t do amazing by our standards, they just saw what was there-a fun show.

      @@GoatSimpulator Their opinions and how they treat you will never be something you can control. People who thrive in hostile environments thrive by knowing they are something else, and that their immediate surroundings don't determine them. People might treat you wrong, even sometimes without ill intent. You cannot be determined by that. So listen to what they're telling you, but then think for yourself. Take in data, analyse, determine what's useful, and dispose of the rest. Sometimes, they'll have things you can use to understand yourself. Sometimes they don't know sh*t so whatever they say or do can't matter at all. Sometimes they'll have advice for something that just doesn't apply to you, and doesn't align with your personal goals. Like hell, I suck at hunting. It isn't a problem for me, I don't hunt to eat and it was never part of my goals. So no matter how many times people insult my inability to hunt I won't feel the least worried or diminished. Similarly, *when you know who you are and where you want to go, then you will decide what gets to you.* That's why "judging yourself with their opinions" makes no sense.

If she says no, that's okay too just remember to heal and focus on your growth as a person. As you said that you and her are friends, just act as you normally would (If that means being yourself, if you can't be yourself around someone then they aren't for you) I hope this helps, goodluck))

      My mother was never a woman I listened to often, people called her crazy and she mistreated me when I was younger. But as I grew up I began to see her struggle, not that it makes it okay, and that she was never crazy. Mean and cruel out of mislead love, yes. But never crazy, I love my momma. When I turned eighteen she told me something that truly stuck with me, something that I think only she could say I could understand from her.
      “Always be yourself, truly. And watch how people react. Their reactions tell you everything you need to know.”
      If you are being yourself, and you are being put down, or judged. Or made to feel crazy or like your emotions are being brushed off, do not take anything THOSE people say about you as word of law. If they are being cruel and mean, not trying to help, only saying things from a place of hatred. Do not listen. Those who care, who want to be in your life, who value your emotions, will show that. People show that differently, but you can tell. You can’t value the opinions of everyone about you. Try to focus on your opinion of yourself, and the opinions of those who truly care. If you look around and see nobody truly cares, look inside yourself. And you have to search for people people who do.
      I hope you know that the opinions of those who only want to tear you down, and hurt you. Those who have never wanted to see you happy or succeed, or those who don’t value your worth mean nothing. I am a random person on the internet and I care about your well being dude, as long as you’re striving to be the best you, I think you’re doing great.

      Everybody's path is different.
      We might've been placed in the same environment in daycare and taught the same stuff in high school. But once you become an adult, you look around you, and everyone else starts separating from you and forging their own path in life.
      It's so, so difficult to really implement into your life. But there is really no strict blueprint for how one should live their life, no matter how much we're conditioned in childhood.
      You don't have to have a romantic partner at a certain milestone. You can go look for it if it's what you really want, but you have to look out for yourself first and foremost. Don't feel pressured to get into a relationship just because everyone else around you is in one. Let it happen when it's supposed to happen.

    So true. On top of that, your shyness is actually attractive. Being nervous and shy when meeting a girl, not knowing what to say, saying simple and "unoriginal" things is attractive - if you're genuine. Be genuine, even if that means being shy, or silent, or not smiling - even when you approach, especially then - is the most attractive thing you can do. Don't listen to dating coaches, don't use techniques, don't play games. And you'll find lots of people who would want to hang around with you.

    Heavy on the younger ppl, I'm 17 turning 18 and I was rushing relationships at 13 because I was desperate for that "high school romance" I needed up being exposed and hurt alot. And only recently have I really sat down and just took my time, my boyfriend now we were friends since 13 and even though it took us a long time to realize we liked eachother it just made it feel more genuine, we've seen eachother at our worst and we still love eachother and yet it took us 5 years to realize it. But it's so worth it

    I really needed to hear this. I've been feeling pretty insecure about features of myself that I can't change and that's led me to be very self-conscious. I'm quite lanky for my age and my hair isn't growing how I want it. I found this video around a month ago and ever since then, I've been going to the gym consistently and eating right so I can start bulking, my facial hair's started to come through, I've started taking care of my skin, sleeping earlier to reduce pimples. I feel much more free than I used to and it mostly stems from me working so that I can be happy with myself rather than with how other people see me. God bless you brother. You're doing good work out here🙏🏾

    as a dark skinned girl who has always gotten the guys i’ve wanted in high school, college was a rude awakening. i thought i was ugly, became insecure, and i had to seek therapy about it, that’s how bad it was. mind you, the therapist ending up admitting he was attracted to me, but that’s besides the point. i realized the dudes i wanted on campus just weren’t attracted to me. at the end of the day, rejection is protection, most of the guys i thought were cute are NOTHING but trouble. so what am i losing?

    Man you've got no idea how much I needed this. I've been dealing with this basically ever since puberty and I'm 22. Ever since I was about 11 or 12, been rejected by my first crush, I've been dealing with this a ton. It hurts like hell, especially if others keep talking about how someone confessed their crush to them, basically others telling my friends that they have a crush on them. I've never been told I look good or anything and it hits hard. Been single, no one found me cute, been always rejected... it still hurts.
    But this helped me out so so much. Thank you man, God bless.

    I *just* found this video, and boy is it powerful.
    Pretty much everything this guy said hit the bullseye. I’ve always been pretty secure with myself physically, but I always had issues with people and my personality. Sometimes I feel like I’m unappealing to be around just because of the negative side of my personality showing on my face. I get irritated easily by small things, and it’s something I’ve always struggled with. I’ve been trying so hard to right myself personality-wise, but maybe I don’t need to rush to fix it. Maybe I just need to focus on myself and wait for God to put the right person into my life, and just surf the waves at they come, rather than try to rush against the current.

    That's right, and it works vice versa too. If you don't like something or somebody, you don't have to convince yourself you do or try to like it when you know deep inside it's just not for you. It's not for you and it's totally fine, there is no reason to feel guilty. Just move on and find what really inspires you.
    Such a good talk, man. It melted my heart when you said "my people", I'm a girl from Russia but I truly felt it.
