For most of my life no one payed attention. In high school I was the girl that everyone got the answers from last nights homework. I was the stereotypical geek. I hated being labeled, but that's how everyone saw me. My fellow peers voted me as Best Behaved, that was the superlative that I got. Ha thinking about this now just makes me laugh.
I've been out of high school for a year and the playing field has suddenly changed. No one ever asked for my number, unless they needed to call to ask when the next meeting was, or when they wanted something...mostly homework. I was extremely confused when my first day of college a guy asked for my number. I responded with, "What? Why?"
My situation at work is even better. Guys openly hit on me and check me out. My co-worker finds my responses to this extremely funny. I honestly find guys' comments to me frustratingly confusing. One of my guy friends says that I shouldn't be surprised because a guys think I'm cute. According to him I'm pretty. Well whatever. I don't think I'm pretty. I just wish guys would leave me alone. I don't like the attention. I feel like they don't take me seriously.
