✨ did threading for the first time today and ngl, for a second, i actually felt pretty. like confident, glowing, not hiding behind my usual self-doubt for once. it was a new feeling, but a good one.
and then... a friend casually goes, “yeah you’re pretty, maybe a 9/14 in class, and like a 6.8/10 overall.” i laughed it off, but that comment? it stuck.
i know i’ve always struggled with self-confidence. i’ve always felt kinda average, not someone who turns heads — and i was okay with that. but today, something about hearing that rating just made me spiral. like damn. maybe i really am ugly.
idk. it sucks when you start to believe the things you were trying so hard to unlearn.
