Hello Friends!
I'm not quite sure how to do this but I guess I will never learn if I don't even start.
You can call me Odessa. I've always been too weird for almost every person, family included. Mind you, I grew up in a small town where everyone pretends to be normal and anything outside of what "they" deem normal is BAD.
My mom taught me that when a person calls you weird, you say, "Thank you!" Until I reached high school, I was completely oblivious to the fact that I made people feel uncomfortable with my "weirdness". I was told that I am very confident, and the people who told me that always made it sound like a bad thing. Those people were sugar coating it, and I couldn't read between their lines. How was I supposed to know that the lines even existed?
When I moved to the city everything changed. I've found myself a loving long term boyfriend, I've gained family, and I finally have friends that I can be my weird self with, because they are just as, if not more weird than I am, and I love every second of it.
I guess what I'm trying to say is that every person craves the sense of belonging. I've never been able to mold myself into the "box" of normal, so I had to find another "box" to fit into.
I don't like to be apart of the normal people, I make a point of not being normal. The way I see it is if you are just going to reject me anyways, why should I try? I'll reject you first, sheeple!
I don't like the popular stuff, the music, the fashion, the activities, the tv shows, the movies. I hated Justin Bieber when he first came out, when the hype died down, and everyone was kind of over him, that's when I really realized his musical talent. It's like that for everything.
Yours weirdly,
Odessa
