The phrase "sticks and stones may break my bones, but words can never hurt me" is bullshit. To be honest, I believed it for a really long time and thought it was inspiring. Whoever said that was so confident and strong. Now all I think is that person was a liar. Words do hurt. They hurt like a bitch. Especially harsh words from the people you love. It sucks, but it happens. The people you thought were the kindest turn out to be the most cruel. Thats just life, right?
I think words hurt more from people who you didn't expect to say them. For example, if some bitch from school calls me annoying and a whore or something, I won't care because she isn't any better. But when someone you thought was your friend goes and says the same, it hurts a hell of a lot more.
"I have better things to do right now" is what he said when all I wanted to do was ask him how his day was and tell him about mine.
"You're being annoying. So shut the fuck up already" is what he said when I asked what was wrong. One simple question, and one hurtful response.
Maybe I'm overreacting, but the way a sting went through my whole body when I heard those words is unmistakable. It was hurt, heartbreak. He had never once been cruel to me or snappy or even short at all, so when I heard this, I was shocked. I cried for an hour because I didn't know what I did wrong. What did I do wrong?
