When Raina called me and asked for a face time, I said sure.

After 15 minutes into the conversation, she asked, "Don't you want to know about my date?"

That wasn't a date.

If it were a date, you wouldv'e said that.

I know she was my friend, but do you know how many times I had to stop myself from being so bitchy and just suck up, and get over you?

I didn't want to be a shitty friend.

But I was selfish.

I wanted to be with you.

But you guys were never actually dating. It was 3 days of gossip and then the end.

"Social anxiety is the fear of interaction with other people that brings on self-consciousness, feelings of being negatively judged and evaluated, and, as a result, leads to avoidance."

I can sing in front of everyone, but don't you think I'm freaking out what people would think about me.

I hated evaluations in club soccer, just another place when someone could tell how much I sucked at something.

But I didn't really suck at it.

I was just scared that people would think I was terrible.

Unlike you, I cared what they thought, a little too much.
