why am i like this.....


Question Posted Saturday October 20 2007, 6:22 pm

you see I've always been able to fit in because im just one of those girls whose cool with everyone but thats because whoever im hangin out with at the tiem I become like that group, like i'll be hangin with the preps and ill catch myself say 'like omg' ALL THE TIME! and whenim with the blondes I become one of the dumb blondes like falling over the floor, and you know just acting stupid!
and when im by myself its like im not even there cause there's now one there for me to be like so im stuck being me, which is nothin, im all quiet smile and laugh never, and im just just empty! its like im an empty vessel who changes for the people around me, and i dont get to think of what i want to do because ive never gotten that option before in my lfe so i dont know who i really am. and ive tried finding out who i want to be or who i really am and ive been unsuccessful, its like im just someone whose there to do what everyone expects me to do!!!

does anyone know whats going on with me, adn why I cant seem to find the true me?

Usually when you do that, you're a follower & you're kind of fake. You don't think for yourself because you're too busy falling into the stereotypes others have placed on a certain group. When you hang with blondes, you act stupid. When you hang with preps, you act stuck up. When you hang with the puerto ricans, you catch yourself talking spanish.


Whatever group you may be, you need to stop falling into it. It's a plot to catch you in the act & make you look dumb. You need to spend time alone & find out who you really are. Once you figure that out, you won't act like someone you're not no matter who you hang out with. You'll be able to hang out freely without blending in & becoming one of them. You'll stand out.

Everyone struggles with problems like these at one time or another. I think that, in order to find yourself, you should start to understand yourself. I know that you don't feel like there IS much of you inside, there is. You just need to figure out what you are like. One excellent way to do this is to start writing in a journal consistently, like once a week, every two days, even every day. Write about whatever pops into your head, and make sure that it's in a private place so that you won't feel tempted to change what you write in
case someone sees it.
I also suggest doing things that you like to do more often, whether it's going to a movie, playing an instrument, or just taking off some quality 'me' time to pamper yourself. I hope that you can feel more confident in who you are soon, and I wish you the best of luck!
