People said I was scary
I said "of course because I'm aggressive," not waiting for an answer
They shook their heads and in one comment they complimented me and insulted me. Lifted me to the sky and pushed me back down to earth.
"No you're scary because you need no one." They said
That lifted me, that meant I had enough pride in myself to not need anyone to make me feel complete.
But what those people don't know is that I break every once and a while. I crack a little. Once in a blue moon I need someone to tell me I'm worthy and that I'm special. I need someone to remind me that other people find me great. It's not boosting my ego. It's confirming my confidence.
