people keep trying to empathize with me.
"oh, i understand. my parents argue every night."
"oh, same here."
"they don't love me either."
no, ashley, your parents love you more than anything.
if they argue that means they're still trying to fix things.
when they stop arguing that's when they've given up.
stop trying to relate your insignificant worries to people who have actual struggles.
struggles with money.
struggles with divorce.
struggles with CPS.
struggles with trying to make it home after school alive.
stop saying you're ugly and fat when you're the prettiest girl in school.
stop fishing for compliments.
stop trying to have problems.
because you don't.
you should be glad you don't.
