i wanna live a glorious, divine, happy life and do amazing things just to spite all my haters and idc if that makes me pathetic or bitter 😌😌apparently when people at school heard i got into x college, some girl i’ve vaguely known since middle school was like “esotericswiftie? seriously? she got in there?” and ngl that satisfied some deep primal craving within me to prove them all wrong. i wanna leave them crying, shaking, throwing up!!!

Old men dating younger girls know exactly what theyre doing and the internet has deluded teenage girls into thinking that they’re on the same level or actually smarter and can out manipulate a man that’s been living 10+ years longer than them. They’ve already won because weaponized incompetence has let you believe that they’re too stupid to have nefarious intentions.
