Confessions#1

Following are a few anonymous confessions (some I received via mail, others I found online)--

1. "My best friend and I were having a sleepover at her house when her hot brother, who I've had a crush on forever, came home from hanging out with his friends. After crushing on him but never saying a word for years, I decided that tonight I was gonna tell him how I felt. So, I pretended to go to sleep at midnight and waited for my friend to go to bed. After, I tiptoed to her brother's room to see if he was still awake, and he was, so we started talking. Later on, he kissed me! Ever since, I've had a ton of sleepovers at my best friend's house, but the best part is, she doesn't know I've been hooking up with her brother!" 

2.  " As usual tired of hearing comments from my mother. She doesn't even trust me, I mean she always doubts on me (talking to boys and all) and I'm actually irritated with her and this kind of behavior because she's having problems with my boy-bestfriends. How should I change her orthodox thoughts and views ? She keeps on scolding me for going out with your guy friends, 'yous should learn to grow up' I mean what kind of torture is this. I wish I wasn't a girl because it sucks, it actually sucks when you are doubted"

3.  "I've finally realized that I'm gay. This just hit me really hard. I've been denying it for so long, trying to convince myself that I like boys and kissing some guy at homecoming. Why? Because I was afraid judgement, or becoming "different." I think I knew all along. I've never felt anything towards any boy. Ever. On the other hand, I've had more crushes on girls than I can count. I guess I just have to accept myself and figure out how to come out to my family."

4.  "I'm the only person who doesn't have a cell phone, and one day I found a dead cell phone lying around. I wanted to look cool in front of my crush, so I pretended to call him in front of these snotty girls. The next thing I knew, he answered at the very same moment I was yelling, "I love you!" The phone was definitely not dead, but I sure wished I was."

5. "One night when my brother's hot friend slept over, I accidentally ran into him in the bathroom. It was a little awkward since I was in my towel getting ready to take a shower. We ended up making out in the bathroom and I didn't have a lonely shower that night."

6. "I am in love with a girl who will never love me back. She is straight."

7. "My teacher get really pissed when we submit late and calls our parents. Once I was late by two days so instead of submitting my project, I just ticked it with a red pen and signed it. She did not realize it when she saw. I hope she never does."

8. "I don't understand what he sees in her. I would treat him a hundred times better."

That's it for now.

Until next time,
