I'm so tired of being me right now. I think it's just time to give up on romance. I meet a girl online, I chat with her, she likes me. Then we meet, there's a great conversation, but every time I feel any kind of connection, she doesn't. Everyone I meet in real life treats me like I'm either about as romantically enticing as a sofa, or like they think I'm gay. Why does everyone think I'm gay? For fucks sake, why do I have to be an asshole before girls start to like me? The last time I had a bad day and confronted someone who was being a jerk, I was stopped and handed a phone number. But just being me....invisible. Or worse. There is something wrong with me. Online they can't see it, but in person it can't be hidden. I wish I knew what it was. I wish I could carve it out.
