when people tell you to be yourself, do they already have a pre-conceived notion of how you should be? conversations with the bros tell me that i'm not attractive as a girl because im not gentle, im stubborn, im too strongheaded etc. but at the same time they tell me to be myself ?? they compare me with some other girls they find "gentle" and "lovable". but then again those girls have no suitors but i do. it's just that with those who confessed to me it was never sth right.

im really not trying to be difficult. but im tired of mansplaining myself. if you were in my shoes and have a lot to fight for, would you choose to be strong as well?

those who want to understand will try.

Let them be wrong about you. There's nothing to prove.
