Please please please call me weird. Call me crazy. Tell me you've never met anyone like me before.
I thrive off of individuality, finding every little quirk of mine and celebrating it. Yes, call me arrogant, call me self-absorbed. I know I am, and it's horrible.
I want to be noticed, to drift in and out of someone's mind throughout the day, to be the object of someone's desire, someone's puzzlement. To be mentioned in little groups because something they were talking about reminded them of me.
Please, don't try to relate. Tell me,
"that's cool," "how is that even possible," "how do I even work like that?". Don't say, "oh yeah that happens to me a lot too," or "I'm sure everyone feels that way, just drop it". It hurts sometimes to feel like you're just like everyone else, never to do anything better or worse, always average and unnoticeable. I want to be known for all the little things I do or think that are different, and I want to know everything that makes another person different, because uniqueness is a superpower that everyone truly has, but you can trick yourself into thinking only you have, so you're special.
Yikes, that all sounded so stuck up and egotistical. Note to self: keep everything less than good in your head next time.
