Tabitha,my mom, doesn't understand fashion very well.
She told me that what I was wearing at the time was not bringing out my personality,and that I didn't need to dress revealing so boys would like me.
Even though I wanted to rebel and not listen to her,I did,and I'm so glad I did.
I started wearing clothes I felt comfortable in but later got labelled as the'tomboy',which later got me bullied.
And I still had some friends then and there, so that kept me going to school.
But I wanted to fit in, because someone told me that I looked like a garbage bag because I was wearing a hoodie that my mom forgot to iron and some oversized jeans.
I felt miserable, and the whole class guffawed at me, and I'm sure about it even though my friend said no one was laughing and everyone was just paying attention to the teacher. That friend, Alijah, was like everybody else, except for the fact that she tolerated me and was nice to me.
Every girl in my school had a crush except me. I felt like I was alone, and for once I didn't enjoy the feeling of being alone.
So I faked a crush, and I chose THE WORST ONE.
I chose Finn from math class, who is a total geek.
That 'crush' did not last long because, as soon as I opened my mouth the whole school knew about it.
When Finn found out he tried getting closer to me, and paid more attention to me than I wished him to.
So I just told Finn that I don't feel an attraction to him anymore, which made him treat me like a bag of shit sitting in the middle of the road getting eaten by flies.
And from there I decided I hate boys and I never want to see one or communicate with one again.
Until highschool.....
