i'm a kid in high school. 

i do robotics. 

or at least, 

i used to do robotics. 

that is until i was kicked off my team by my boyfriend and his best friend. 

it's because the coach only allows for 4 person teams, 

and apparently i'm not useful enough for them. 

i don't know. 

i thought i was useful. 

i thought i was valuable. 

i thought i was worth something, 

somewhere. 

but i guess i'm not. 


my biggest fear is being abandoned,

and that's why i think this is bothering me so much. 

i'm being abandoned in one form, 

by someone who shouldn't abandon me. 


they think i'm stupid for quitting. 

when they pushed me aside like trash. 

they didn't tell me themselves. 

they tried to give me a consolation prize of being on someone else's team. 

they lied to my face about it. 

am i stupid for wanting to quit after all that?
